Just 30 minutes from downtown Houston, the master-planned community of Meridiana is becoming one of the most sought-after addresses in the southern Houston corridor. Spanning 3,000 acres in Manvel, it blends resort-style amenities, on-site schools and convenient access to major employment centers.
Drees Custom Homes is offering spacious, customizable homes designed to complement the scale of the neighborhood and the lifestyles of its families.
Spacious homesites, refined designs
At Meridiana, Drees is closing out 65-, 80- and 100-foot lots and has transitioned into its gated 70- and 90-foot sections, offering buyers privacy and presence. Homes range from the low $600,000s to over $1 million, with floor plans spanning 3,000 to more than 5,000 square feet.
What distinguishes Drees is flexibility in architecture and layout.
“We have various architectural styles as well as on-trend design features,” market manager Connie Hentosh said. “Notably, our customizable floor plans allow us to make a home that perfectly fits your family.”
That personalization continues inside the company’s award-winning Houston Design Center, where buyers can tailor finishes and features to match their vision, creating a home that feels distinctly their own.
Built on nearly a century of quality
Of course, thoughtful design means little without craftsmanship to support it.
“With 97 years of building, quality and durability are the cornerstones that we stand by,” Hentosh said. “We have numerous quality checks and inspections to ensure that every detail is being checked and re-checked.”
Homes in Meridiana feature full open-cell foam insulation, delivering energy efficiency that outperforms traditional methods. While buyers can select from many upgrades, many find the standard features exceed expectations—a reflection of the builder’s commitment to quality.
