Sweet neighborhood in Sugar Land

Greatwood is one of the sweetest spots in the city of Sugar Land, Texas. Community residents appreciate the tranquility of the 30-mile distance from Houston, top-ranked schools and proximity to shopping. “It’s a nice area. The neighborhoods are quiet and well-kept. You can find homes for the average family income or a million dollars on the same street. There’s a lot of fluctuation as far as price goes, but everyone who lives there wants the same things — a quiet space for their kids and good schools,” says Arianna Soares, a Realtor with NB Elite Realty, who lives in the area. “Sugar Land, in general, is very family oriented. People who want to get to the city for work or entertainment have the option of going in, but it gives you a more suburban feeling. It’s a very popular area.”

Greatwood offers homes at a variety of price points

There are homes for every budget here. Homebuyers have their pick of modest ranch homes, newer traditional brick homes with two-car garages, and Mediterranean-style mansions with red tile roofs and lake views. On some streets, the homes sit huddled together, while on others, houses may rest on properties up to 7 acres.

The average list price hovers around $450,000. A three-bedroom, two-bath may run in the low $200,000s, while a sprawling Greek Revival mansion could fetch more than $3 million. “How quickly things sell really depends on price. It could be a few weeks or several weeks,” Soares says. “Anything over $400,000 or $500,000 tends to stay on the market longer than the lower-priced homes. Most people are buying homes for $400,000 or under. When it goes over that people tend to get more picky.”
