Waterside living with flair
Imagine spending a warm spring night enjoying licks of Cool Cow Creamery ice cream, between rides on the “Boardwalk Bullet” roller coaster and the “Century” Ferris wheel, all while soaking in a breeze from the Galveston Bay. It’s an experience that’s part of Kemah’s perpetual charm, courtesy of its famous boardwalk. A home in this Southeast Houston-area town places the Kemah Boardwalk, plus more fun on and by the bay, right at residents’ fingertips. Also, the crime score here ranks better than the national average, according to the CAP Index. “You’re right there on the Galveston Bay, which is beautiful,” says local Realtor Troy Chase, team lead of Troy Chase Realty Group. “It also bumps up to Clear Lake, which is a natural lake that’s just inland off the bay. Which, again, is beautiful. The boardwalk is there. And there are a lot of really nice local restaurants and shops that are all right there, that are great for tourism. Anyone that comes to that area, it’s a unique dining experience because of all the options you have down there.”

Boardwalk brings excitement
The Kemah Boardwalk dates back to the late 1990s and stretches 35 acres along the town’s coast. The boardwalk is packed with more than a dozen rides and other allures. Rides, aside from the Bullet and the Ferris wheel, include the “Flare,” a 73-foot rollercoaster, and the “Aviator,” a towering set of swings. The boardwalk features several eateries as well, ranging from Starbucks to one of four Aquarium Restaurant locations in the country. Aquarium specializes in seafood and steak, and the dining experience comes complete with a 50,000-gallon actual aquarium filled with myriad underwater species. Landry’s Seafood House is among the other options on the boardwalk, and it is liked in part for its gumbo. Whatever meal someone picks, they can finish it off with a sweet treat from nearby Cool Cow Creamery. “It’s top-notch ice cream, it’s all handcrafted,” says Chase, who has been in real estate for several years. “Big-time gourmet ice cream. It’s great.”
The Boardwalk isn’t Kemah’s sole commercial hub, either. The thoroughfares of Marina Bay Drive and Farm to Market Road 518 offer a long list, including Walmart, ALDI, Target, The Home Depot, Office Depot, Ross Dress for Less, Marshalls and Petco.

Variety is the constant in Kemah
Eclecticism is part of Kemah’s fabric in terms of the area’s housing stock. Homes on many of the area’s streets come in a mix of layouts and with a variety of different facades. Kemah offers everything from midcentury ranch-style homes to brand-new detached townhome-style options. “The new construction that’s going on in the area, they’re almost like townhouses,” Chase says. “But they don’t share a wall. It’s almost like a garden home. Low-maintenance homes, because you don’t have a yard to maintain.” The community’s coastal location facilitates coveted waterfront houses as well, many of which have their piers and docks out back. “You have a wide range to like homes that are on the actual Galveston Bay that are out there, that are super expensive,” Chase says. “You’re talking very limited waterfront property.” Kemah’s spot on the coast also puts much of the area at risk for flooding, though. Price tags here span from the mid-to-high $200,000s for a townhome or small single-family house, and can top out at more than $1 million for a waterfront home or an inland home with acreage.

In addition to the parade, the Blessing of the Fleet weekend includes a car show and a gumbo cook-off. There’s also an annual Fourth of July celebration, complete with live music. And December brings the Christmas Boat Lane Parade, a tradition for more than 60 years, featuring a collection of dazzlingly decorated watercraft.
