The new Brookdale II model at the coveted master-planned community Audubon in Magnolia, Texas welcomes guests with clean, modern lines, a mortar path lined with bright florals and perfectly placed plants, and a statement striped door. One of the largest master-planned communities in Magnolia, Audubon spans over 3,000 acres.
It is comprised of gorgeous homes whose well-manicured lawns are maintained by the HOA, Screech Park, Legacy Park, Mill Run Trail, an amenity center, a resort-style pool and more. The ample green space and winding trails are dappled with ponds, lakes and large heritage oak trees which climb toward the sky while a chorus of birds and other wildlife immerse you, letting nature take the lead.
The location
Conveniently located near the Aggie Expressway, FM1488 and I-45, this community is 40 miles from Houston, 20 miles from Conroe and the Woodlands, and 10 miles from Tomball. Residents enjoy the outdoors while having access to everyday comforts. It’s just minutes from shopping, dining and entertainment in the big city and the Audubon town center is coming soon. Also, children attend the highly-rated Magnolia ISD schools and there is even a proposed on-site elementary.

With a mid-century modern silhouette and contrast-rich, contemporary color palette, this home offers stunning curb appeal. Clean lines are balanced with organic charcoal ledgestone, early evening stucco and plentiful greenery. Upon entry, a geometric, candelabra chandelier hangs in the two-story foyer. The foyer is framed by a minimalist staircase in aspen tan and satin black, echoing the striped silhouette of the front door and contrasting exterior colors.
Just to the left of the entryway, sunlight streams through the sizable windows of the guest suite. Complete with a full bath featuring a high-contrast, black and white patterned tile floor and glossy shower tiling in ocean blue. Down the hall, a study lies beyond barn doors finished in black magic. On the ceiling, dark blue basket weave paneling frames a contrasting gold chandelier featuring an organic silhouette.
Further into the home, you’ll discover the kitchen and dining area where white walls are complemented by gold accents and light flooring in sand pearl oak. A chandelier appears like floating crystals while blue tones and bamboo chairs have a grounding affect.
Marble countertops and an island featuring an apron front sink, dishwasher and pull-out receptacle to dispose of cooking scraps make this kitchen perfect for entertaining. Plus, check out waterfall mitered sides as seen at the Drees Custom Homes Design Center.
You’ll have space for all sorts of serving trays and dining sets with ample storage in floor to ceiling cabinets. Display your favorites in glass front cabinets on either side of the stove. Bake several dishes at once with a double oven. Above the stove, a custom range hood is barely distinguishable from the beautiful cabinetry. The perfect pop of color is achieved with glossy mizu green tiled backsplash which features an ellipse patterned mosaic. Store delicious ingredients in the walk-in pantry tucked between the kitchen and laundry room.
Matching marble encases a cozy fireplace, complementing the kitchen countertops. With vaulted ceilings and exposed beams which coordinate with sand oak flooring the family room is the perfect gathering space whether it’s family movie night or a get-together with friends. Several windows, high and low, fill this space with light making it feel even more expansive.
Sliding glass doors seamlessly transition this space into the covered outdoor living area. The outdoor space is complete with a cooling fan and vaulted ceiling as well as an outdoor kitchen framed in charcoal limestone to match the home’s exterior. Keep drinks on deck while you grill out with a beverage fridge. Your home will certainly be a summertime favorite.
Back inside, just past the pantry, a convenient, truly multipurpose space awaits. Laundry room meets family ready room with a bench featuring hooks, cubbies and storage above — the perfect drop zone for your family’s day-to-day items. More storage and the perfect space for a washer and drier lie opposite. Your four-legged family members can keep you company during laundry duty. Plus, they will feel part of the family with their own indoor dog house. Hexagonal tiles in navy blue, forest green and white create a pleasant pattern giving this space a lively feel. Conveniently placed, a door leads from the laundry room to the three-car garage.
Additionally, the Brookdale II offers homeowners a relaxing retreat in the primary suite, complete with a spa-like bath and an impressive walk-in closet. It also offers two additional secondary bedrooms upstairs. Other noteworthy home features include game and media rooms on the second floor, which create the perfect family gathering space.
