The 27-acre community will feature 263 homes built by Arch-Con Corp., and the first residents are slated to move in next summer.
“By adding Wingspan to our diverse housing options in Bridgeland, Howard Hughes is responding to the unwavering demand for turnkey homes with all the benefits that come with living in the master-planned community,” said Travis Guinn, vice president of vertical development for The Howard Hughes Corp., in the release. “Created for renters seeking a lock-and-leave lifestyle, Wingspan offers another attractive option for those who want to benefit from connectivity to hundreds of acres of green space and access to top-ranked schools along with in-demand retail and dining destinations.”
Officials said Wingspan will feature single-family attached and detached homes, including casita-style homes, townhomes and duplexes with modern farmhouse designs. One- to four-bedroom floor plans are available ranging from 650-1,700 square feet. Garages will be available in select units. Homes will have backyards that will include maintenance services and will be gated for secure access, according to the release.
Wingspan will be zoned to Cy-Fair ISD and located south of 22-acre Chrysalis Lake in Prairieland Village west of the Grand Parkway. Amenities within the neighborhood will include a pet park, a playground, a pool, a fitness center and covered outdoor spaces with grilling stations.
“Wingspan will be managed by Howard Hughes’ multifamily division, ensuring that tenants and neighborhood residents regularly experience the best-in-class quality for which Bridgeland is known,” Guinn said.
Jim Carman, Houston region president for The Howard Hughes Corp., said in a June 14 interview with Community Impact Newspaper that while Cypress has a high apartment occupancy rate, many renters are looking for the single-family experience with benefits such as yard space.
“We are seeing a growing renter-by-choice population, so that is a changing or growing segment of the customer base,” Carman said. “They're doing it for a lot of different reasons. You know, they may be new to the area and not sure where they want to buy. They may be in a job transition and not quite ready to buy, or they may be retirees that have multiple homes and want to have something near the grandkids.”
