Houston Chronicle - July 21, 2007

Located along the Highway 290 corridor, the new home community of Sydney Harbour offers the serenity of lakeside living in a convenient location.

Most of the homes in this community are situated along bulk-headed water canals, adorned with lighted water sprays and rock-landscaped waterfalls. All of the waterfront home sites extend to the lake’s edge, allowing residents the availability of their own private dock. All of these pristine environmental features along with outstanding amenities, contribute to Sydney Harbour’s resort-style feel.

Homebuyers in Sydney Harbour will enjoy the peace of mind that comes with purchasing a high-quality home. Three homebuilders – J. Patrick Homes, CastleRock Communities, and Princeton Classic Homes – offer award-winning homes ranging from 1800 to 4200 square feet, with prices starting in the $200,000 range. Visitors can tour 6 fully-furnished model homes as well as a variety of homes ready for move-in.

All of the homes in Sydney Harbour are designed with the surroundings in mind. Most feature large back porches to take in the beautiful lake views, and many offer optional covered decks and patios. Customers can take advantage of the large yards that extend to the lake’s edge, by adding their own private dock.

Recently, a 5,000-square-foot Mediterranean-style clubhouse and pool complex were added to Sydney Harbour’s list of amenities. The club house is complete with a kitchen and a large indoor gathering area overlooking the swimming pool and lake, making it a perfect location for residents to host their next function. The junior Olympic swimming pool features an infinity edge with a stunning view of the lake beyond. Children in Sydney Harbour will enjoy the playground adjacent to the club house.

Sydney Harbour’s location on Cypress Rosehill, just north of Highway 290, is a major draw to potential homebuyers. Many dining, shopping, and entertainment options lie within two miles of the community, including several grocery stores, banks, retail stores, restaurants, home improvement stores, and a movie theatre. For the avid golfer, four courses are located within a five-minute drive. Additionally, children living in Sydney Harbour attend schools in the highly-rated Cy-Fair Independent School District.
