Cochran's Crossing is at the heart of The Woodlands, Texas

Cochran's Crossing is at the center of 10 villages making up The Woodlands, Texas. "Each has a shopping hub and The Woodlands also has over 200 miles of walking and biking trails creating commuter paths between them," says local sales associate Tina Saalwaechter of Coldwell Banker Realty. Residents may be around 40 miles from downtown Houston, but they’re just a peddle away from great schools, immersive parks and everyday amenities. Compared to many areas in Houston, where new construction is springing up like prairie weeds, properties here trail back to the '90s. Homes are also $200,000 less in Cochran's Crossing than in Sterling Ridge, its next-door neighbor.

Cochran's Crossing is one of ten villages located in The Woodlands and is popular for families.

Truly "The Woodlands"

It wouldn't be The Woodlands if there weren't a ton of trees. Properties in Cochran's Crossing are true members of this community, settling under a blanket of greenery. Most are brick Neo Traditionals, some showcasing elegant stonework, French doors, casement windows and A-frame roofs. Many also have luxury amenities, like pools and large patios. While the average value of a property in Cochran's Crossing is around $600,000, a four-bedroom traditional built in the '80s was recently valued at around $300,000. Conversely, a custom-built house overlooking a golf course costs over a million. Properties tend to sell within 21 days, faster than the national average of 41.

For both its athletic and academic prowess, the high school is also a five-time University Interscholastic League Lone Star Cup holder.

Bear Branch Park to Mystic Forest Park

With 150 parks total in The Woodlands, green space is plentiful. The village's own Bear Branch Park has a long list of amenities from several dog parks to seven sports courts and an indoor fitness center with a variety of strength training equipment. The park has a new playground sturdy enough for adults to follow their kids as they play, a fishing pond and shady picnic areas. For golf lovers, The Woodlands Country Club is on the western side of the neighborhood. Membership includes access to their social calendar, which features parties, holiday events and classes. Locals also have small local pocket parks to choose from, like Mystic Forest Park, as well as miles of trails at the 1,800 acre George Mitchell Nature Preserve, 5 miles South off Flintridge Drive. "People take their kayaks to Lake Woodlands as well," Saalwaechter adds. This 200-acre fresh water lake is under 4 miles away via Research Forest Drive.

Bike paths are plenty in Cochran's Crossing
