SWEETWATER COVE
BY JACLYN RITTER
AFTER A BUSY DAY, NOTHING COMPARES TO RELAXING OUTDOORS, ENJOYING THE FEEL OF A CRISP COASTAL BREEZE, THE SOUND OF WAVES WASHING OVER NEARBY ROCKS, AND THE SIGHT OF THE SUN’S RAYS DANCING ON THE CLEAR WATER AS IT SINKS BENEATH THE HORIZON.
Sweetwater Cove, located on beautiful Galveston Island, a desirable stretch of land only 50 miles southeast of Houston, boasts West Indies styled homes that seamlessly coexist within the vibrant surrounding nature. Location, Views, Design, and Infrastructure are the four ways in which this affluent and small by design community sets itself apart from the rest.
Location is everything when it comes to purchasing a home. Many seek to find that rare gem nestled in a quiet and picturesque paradise, but also close in proximity to the shops and attractions of a city. Sweetwater Cove is that rare gem! Cradled within a 450+ acre nature preserve, managed by the Galveston Bay Foundation, and strategically positioned along the serene waters of West Bay, residents are immersed in a peaceful and natural setting.
Sweetwater Cove is also only minutes away from everything Galveston has to offer. This vibrant city hosts frequent music, theater, and entertainment events that cater to audiences of all ages. Fine dining and casual fare – Galveston has it all! Enjoy fresh catch of the day at local restaurants, or venture into a new and exciting dining experience. Family fun is right around the corner with Schlitterbahn Waterpark, Moody Gardens, first class golf courses, and beaches less than eight miles away. In addition, travel on and off the island is a breeze with I-45, a major Texas thoroughfare, only 7.5 miles away.
With over 500 species of local and migrating birds, the Sweetwater area is already a popular bird watching destination for bird enthusiasts and wildlife photographers alike. To encourage the bird’s migration to the island, and retain the beauty and safety of their sanctuary, there are no streets lights within the community. This means the birds above Sweetwater Cove sing sweeter and the stars shine brighter!
Sustainable design and premier infrastructure also set Sweetwater Cove above other communities. With gated and private access to the community, residents feel safe to come and go as they please. Still keeping safety in mind, all Sweetwater Cove lots have a land elevation of 4.25 to 7.25 feet above sea level. In addition, all bay lots have a newly installed bulkhead complete with a 50-year warranty.
With only 60 homesites available, the close proximity to town, breathtaking views of West Bay’s calm waters, the sights and sounds of nature at its best, and top tier infrastructure and design, it is no surprise that Sweetwater Cove is the most sought-after new community on Galveston Island. Buy or build in Sweetwater Cove, and commit to the tranquility of island life.
