In what may be Houston’s most coveted neighborhood sits NOVEL River Oaks, a new beacon of classic architecture and modern lifestyle that honors the heritage, elegance, and natural beauty of the area.
A testament to high-end living, these elegant apartment homes make an impression and continue the pace of this alluring ZIP code that’s steeped in history.
Here are 10 notes about NOVEL River Oaks that illustrate how you can elevate your own narrative here.
1. It’s a natural fit
Canopied under lush live oaks, the setting for your new home is an idyllic haven within the city. The airy, botanical aesthetic is just as picturesque as the neighborhood that surrounds it.
2. Every layout is luxurious
From entertaining family and friends to quiet nights at home, the one-, two-, and three-bedroom floorplans are designed for beauty and functionality.
There are two interior finish options, but you should know that all units come with hardwood floors, private balconies, spacious walk-in closets with built-in shelving, and gourmet kitchens complete with stainless steel appliances and wine refrigerators.
3. Have a stay-cation at the retreat-style pool
Both the rooftop pool with sun ledge and the pool house with an outdoor living room have “vacation vibes” written all over them — no travel time required. There’s also a sunset terrace with grilling lounges for post-pool-day noshing.
4. WFH — with or without the "W"
Thanks to a map room equipped with quiet areas for focus time, along with public meeting spaces and an executive conference room, working from home has never looked better.
When you’ve put in enough hours for the day, the indoor-outdoor city-view lounge, as well as the conservatory and veranda, are the perfect places to grab a drink and unwind.
5. You can also work out from home
The full athletic club onsite features the most innovative equipment and machines along with a flex fitness studio.
6. Very good neighbors included
Located at the iconic intersection of Willowick and Westheimer, you’re in good company the minute you walk out the door.
The chic boutiques of Highland Village are just around the corner and eclectic global restaurants and Central Market are all within strolling distance, too.
7. Furry BFFs welcome
Not only is taking Fido outside a walk in the park (literally!) with beautiful oak-lined pathways, but there is both a pet park and grooming room onsite.
8. Too many other amenities to count
From a coffee bar and hosted wine tastings to concierge service, valet parking, and package delivery — and, of course, a gated, access-controlled parking garage, electric car-charging stations, and more — the list of amenities seems to go on forever.
9. This place is buzz-worthy, literally
Through a partnership with Alvéole, NOVEL has adopted honeybees to help change the narrative of the urban environment and reconnect the community to the subtle wonders of nature.
10. There’s even more to look forward to
Coming soon, NOVEL will be adding another layer to its own narrative with a range of high-end retail partners that will be moving in soon.
