In the green and grassy expanses of Mont Belvieu, Texas, a ground breaking development is taking shape. Riceland, a sprawling 1,500-acre master-planned community organized by the visionaries at Houston-based McGrath Real Estate Partners, has just reached a pivotal moment in its journey: the delivery of the first lots in Phase I. This milestone heralds the beginning of a new era for Mont Belvieu, Texas.

With renowned homebuilders such as Chesmar Homes, David Weekley Homes, Highland Homes, and Perry Homes at the helm, Phase I at Riceland will unfold across 144 acres, promising to bring 417 homes to life. Construction kicked off in Q1, and home sales are expected to rise throughout Q2 2024, so anticipation is building for what’s to come.

At Riceland, we believe our master-planned community isn’t just another development; it’s a bold reimagining of suburban living. Situated just a few miles east of Houston, Riceland is crafting a legacy as one of the most significant mixed-use developments in the area. The community is a testament to the allure of the outdoors. Plans for Riceland include 4,500 homes surrounded by 30 miles of trails, a 10-acre stocked lake, resort-style pools, and lush parks.
