"Conch Town Houses" now available in Port Aransas, Texas

Alex Harris, Owner of Brite Star Construction began searching for a new style of townhome that would be unique to Port Aransas and Mustang Island. After visiting Sea Side, Destine, Rose Mary Beach and Water Color, Alex still had not found  just right product for this development. But, after taking a trip down to the Keys and spending hours walking the streets of Key West taking several hundred pictures, he found an idea that he thought would work. Together with Jon Hall, owner of Prime Design Group they came up with--the Conch House Style Town Home. These new "Conch Town Houses" combine all the features of a cottage style Key West Conch house with the openness of a garden home,but they have added affordability of town home construction. The "Conch Town House" was first built on North Padre Island and was named after the Marquesas Islands (just south of Key West). At the Marquesas Islands, the Gulf of Mexico meets the Atlantic Ocean and these two great bodies of waters create world class fishing, sailing, diving and other water activites. The Marquesas Islands are also known for its pirate activities in the early 1900's. Alex named this new product: Pirates Bay Townhomes, where a Garden Home meets a Town Home. Just like in the Marquesas Islands..... Port Aransas has world class fishing, sailing, diving and other outdoor water activities.

In our single story "Conch Town Homes" we offer; open breezeway patios allowing each homeowner to enlarge their living space and still have privacy. Each of these "Conch Town Homes" come standard with Impact Resistant Windows/Doors, Custom Painted Hardi Board Exteriors, Stained Concrete Floors, Open Pantry, High Open Cathedral Ceilings, Walk-in Closets, Large Fiberglass Master Shower, lots of storage as well as an assigned Boat/RV parking place (approx 9x30).

Phase I - will include 24 units (18 "Conch Style Town Homes" and 6 Multi-family two story town homes). The two story town homes open out on the pool. Currently in September 2010, there are 11 completed units with 4 under construction.

Upon completion the entire project will be approximately 11.5 million of new tax base for the City of Port Aransas.
