The wooded lots, lakes and expansive green areas of Legends Trace belie the fact that this exclusive neighborhood is tucked just minutes away from all the conveniences of the big city, from exceptional hospitals, churches and acclaimed Conroe ISD schools to great shopping, dining and entertainment.

Mercer Arboretum and Botanical Gardens is one of the more unusual attractions, but there are plenty more, including Splashtown USA with its  50 acres of water-park fun, an amphitheater, picnic areas, volleyball courts and food concessions.

Legends Trace is a Gracepoint Engineered for Life Diamond/Green neighborhood, which means every home is certified to meet the highest standards for energy efficiency and environmental friendliness. Choose from a variety of spacious one- and two-story designs priced from the $200s to the $260s.
