New residential construction is taking over in Alvin, with homes being built with one and two stories featuring brick and stone façades, attached multicar garages and energy-efficient amenities in the interior. Ranch-style homes set back in cul-de-sacs are also popular, sitting on spacious lots with manicured lawns. More established homes offer a stately feel, reflecting traditional-style architecture, with ample yard space for entertainment areas, inground pools and gorgeous lake views. A touch of historic charm comes with the Victorian homes — displaying huge front porches and fenced-in yards — dating back to the late 19th century. Prices for new builds start in the high $200,000s and go up to the low $500,000s. Other homes in the area come with price tags in the $300,000s and $400,000s.
