In 1904, Houston oil drillers struck another lucky find—a native hot spring in Cypress. The Houston Hotwell Sanitarium and Hotel was built around the spring, and tourists poured into the area to swim in the natural mineral water or go to the dance hall at the one-of-a-kind resort. Over a century later, the hotel is long gone but the “Hot Wells” name remains. The small community is half truck yards and horse stables and half well-organized residential streets. Houston Hot Wells also has a prime location in the middle of the increasingly popular city of Cypress. "Cypress has grown quite a bit over the last 10 years, becoming one of the hottest Houston suburbs from the restaurants, the schools, to the award-winning master-planned communities," says Andrea Curran, a broker associate with Compass Real Estate who has been selling homes in Cypress area for seven years. “For me, the schools were the main driver, but Cypress is also a great location for commuters."
Houston Hot Wells is home to the nautrual beauty of Cypress, TX.
