About Us OUR VISION NEIGHBORHOOD About Us We build unique, energy efficient, single family homes along the award-winning METRORail in Houston’s Near Northside. Our vision is anchored by four central tenets: Site-plan, Transit-Oriented Development, Design, and Energy Efficiency/Sustainable Development. This home was situated on the lot to display the beautiful oak tree and features a large side yard and backyard. Site-plan Our homes, through the responsible use of downtown-Houston sites, not only do their part to promote a healthy water cycle, create more green areas in the neighborhood, and cut down on urban heat, but also ultimately provide you with more space and privacy. It’s a win-win-win-win. All of the homes we build at Revolution Homes are done so on infill lots, meaning we are developing unused or underused land in already developed areas. And we always do our utmost to innovate and improve the distinctive character of the neighborhoods in which we build. Our homes have significant yard space whether a back-, side-, or front yard. This decreases our homes’ footprints and bolsters green spaces in the area. And on top of this we always make it a priority to position our dwellings for easy rail-and-trail access. As if the the top two points didn’t make our homes unique enough in downtown Houston, all of our homes have their own private driveway with no common elements, so you’re getting the best of all worlds. Transit-Oriented Development Public transportation is a major consideration in how we develop our projects in relation to the city. And that’s a game-changer for Houston. The METRORail touts itself as “a fast, convenient way to travel to downtown, midtown, the Museum District, Texas Medical Center, Moody Park and up to the Northline Transit Center / HCC,” and we agree — that’s why we’ve chosen Houston’s Near Northside for our remarkable ventures. Generally located within a quarter-mile from the Redline on the METRORail, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more convenient and stylish home in the heart of Houston. Our Quitman Townhome project designed by Troy Schaum of Schaum/Shieh architects Design We take all design aspects into consideration, from smart open floor plans to well-appointed windows that provide you with attractive views of downtown and yield abundant natural light, providing our customers with with highly-functional living spaces that please all the senses. As of spring 2014, Revolution Homes has partnered with award-winning architect Troy Schaum of the acclaimed practice SCHAUM/SHIEH for some of our projects. We share their “appreciation for quality in the aesthetic and material” — and our collaboration with them constitutes a new exciting phase of our growth as a company. Distinctive and always chic, your home will standout by virtue of its design — an urban oasis in the heart of downtown. Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Development Our model is more sustainable and more environmentally-friendly than most of the competition without pricing the customer out of the market. “Building green” entails more than simply the actual construction of the home; it’s also what goes into the home — and we’re doing so much more on that front than the competition: We offer low-e Milgard casement windows, tankless water heaters, cellulose insulation, bamboo and local hardwood flooring, low VOC paints and building materials, smart thermostats and energy-efficient appliances. Combine our sustainable model for development with our environmentally-minded construction methods and materials along with our proximity to the METRORail and you can see that Revolution Homes is the most obvious and elegant choice for the forward-thinking contemporary home buyer.
