The Howard Hughes Corp. recently announced that construction is underway for Wingspan, the company’s first build-to-rent neighborhood in Bridgeland.

Comprising 263 homes on 27 acres in Prairieland Village, Wingspan will provide renters with best-in-class amenities and lifestyle offerings. According to a press release, the first residents will move into the master-planned community by summer 2023.

“By adding Wingspan to our diverse housing options in Bridgeland, Howard Hughes is responding to the unwavering demand for turnkey homes with all the benefits that come with living in the master-planned community,” said Travis Guinn, vice president of vertical development for Howard Hughes. “Created for renters seeking a lock-and-leave lifestyle, Wingspan offers another attractive option for those who want to benefit from connectivity to hundreds of acres of green space and access to top-ranked schools along with in-demand retail and dining destinations.”

ArchCon, the community’s builder, will construct a mix of single-family attached and detached homes, including casita-style homes, townhomes and duplexes. Inspired by a modern farmhouse design, the homes will feature one- to four-bedroom floorplans ranging from 650 to 1,700 square feet.

The release noted that some units would boast private backyards and garages. In addition, all homes in the gated community will have a backyard and maintenance service.

Zoned to Cy-Fair ISD, Wingspan is located directly south of the 22-acre Chrysalis Lake, surrounded by nearly 40 acres of forests and meadows, with direct access to Grand Parkway. Additionally, Wingspan will offer exclusive on-site amenities that include a pet park, playground, pool, state-of-the-art fitness center and covered outdoor spaces complete with grilling stations.

“Wingspan will be managed by Howard Hughes’ multifamily division, ensuring that tenants and neighborhood residents regularly experience the best-in-class quality for which Bridgeland is known,” added Guinn.
