Stone Gate offers privacy and golfing opportunities

Almost every master-planned community is known for something. A key feature of the established neighborhood of Stone Gate is in its name. Many, though not all of its residents, enjoy the privacy of living in gated subdivisions and the feeling they get driving back to their traditional brick homes, some of which back up to greenways. "A lot of this world is not gated, so when you move into a community that is, and you have to be buzzed in, you feel special," says Realtor Natasha Simon of LPT Realty LPC, a former resident of Stone Gate. Golfers gravitate to this neighborhood as the Houston National Golf Club and the Sterling Country Club both settle here. Lakes dot both courses, and some residences front the water. Besides this draw, verdant areas surrounding downtown Houston are increasingly popular as people seek quieter expanses outside the city. "We keep going back, back, back further into the suburbs, into the sticks, so this is prime real estate. Even though you're as far as Cypress, you're not as far as Hockley," Simon says. Stone Gate is between U.S. Route 290 to the north and Tuckerton Road to the south. Shopping and dining surround both roads, and downtown Houston is around 30 miles along U.S. 290.

Leisurely days at The Houston National Golf Club

Sterling Country Club, partly staffed by PGA-certified golf professionals, offers a members-only golf course with a double-sided driving range and practice facility. Its grille and social activities are also exclusive to members. The Houston National Golf Club is a more casual course, with 18 holes that people can pay to play per game or access through membership. The Stone Gate Recreation Center on Green Canyon Drive requires an access card that only residents can obtain. The center has a junior Olympic-sized pool that offers ample space for lap swimming while providing practice space for the Stonegaters, the community's youth swimming club. Kids have a separate pool to splash in. "There's a lot of space at that park. They have playground equipment, but they also have a hardtop with a basketball court. There's always basketball happening there. I have four boys, so they love that," Simone says. Another spot for the kids to cool off is Canyon Gate Splash Pad, just over 4 miles south. Just next door is a playground with climbing structures and a sandbox.

Drinks and virtual golfing at The Daly Round

A day of eating, drinking and shopping can happen at Stone Gate Commons, a shopping strip located in the neighborhood's northern section. Plum Coffee Shop sells breakfast sandwiches, pastries, and a typical range of coffee favorites, from lattes to frappes. Locals stop by to grab paninis made fresh to order at lunchtime. Romero's Las Brazas is the local Mexican spot for a margarita and fajita fix. The Daly Round opened in 2024, bringing a casual sports bar and lounge that embraces the area's love of golf by offering virtual golfing rooms. On the menu, the cocktails and chicken tenders are a local favorite. Though retail pickings are slim at Stone Gate Commons, it does have a hair salon, nail spa and a martial arts studio. Between the Northwest Freeway just north and Tuckerton Road just south, residents have an H-E-B, Kroger and even more restaurants. For shopping and dining lakeside and catching live music on the weekends, The Boardwalk at Towne Lake is less than 3 miles west of Stone Gate on Barker Cypress Road. Cypress Towne Center is around 3 miles away via U.S. 290 for Target runs.

The competitive housing market in Stone Gate

The neighborhood is completely built out, and most homes are from the early 2000s. "You'll take an older house to get more space and a more mature location. Your neighborhood is set instead of adding new construction where you don't know what it's going to be," Simon says. She's referring to Houston's famous lack of zoning laws, where new construction can sometimes bring a mixed-matched feeling to a neighborhood. In Stone Gate, neo-traditionals lining the street create uniformity. Residential streets feature tree-lined sidewalks capping manicured lawns punctuated by flowering bushes. "You will see kids out walking and riding their bikes to play with other neighborhood children," says Andrea Curran, a broker associate with Compass Real Estate who's sold homes in Cypress for seven years. Prices range from the low $300,000s to the mid $600,000s in Stone Gate. The range is related to square footage, extent of renovation, lot sizes and whether a home fronts a greenway or the water, as many do not. Stone Gate is a competitive market as residents stay put, leading to low housing stock. Once listed, homes sell over ten days faster than the national average. HOA fees are around $1034 annually in Stone Gate, and deed restrictions are upheld. Simone says residents in gated sections pay an extra hundred dollars yearly for the privilege. The tax rate is 2.15%. Though the Houston area has a reputation for flooding, Simon says it's not an issue. The CAP Index Crime Score here is 2 out of 10, lower than the national average of 4.

Living near HCA Houston Healthcare

Cars are essential in Stone Gate. "We are in the suburbs of Houston, Texas. We do not have buses in the suburbs. That is a city thing," Simone says. However, she says the neighborhood takes about 20 minutes to walk from north to south, and sidewalks are plentiful, so locals can get to nearby recreation by foot or golf cart if they want to. A medical corridor with a general hospital, emergency room and specialty facilities run by HCA Houston Healthcare is just over 4 miles east, off the Northwest Freeway. Nearby houses of worship are CyLife Church on Tuckerton Road and Messiah Lutheran Church on Telge Road, both within 3 to 5 miles. Downtown Houston and George Bush Intercontinental Airport are around 30 away via U.S. 290. Stone Gate is west of Grand Parkway, Houston's outermost beltway.
