Fort Bend county is home to some of the most popular master-planned communities in the nation, many of which have beautiful lakes that are spectacularly designed. Lakefront properties are particularly coveted by sophisticated buyers, for the amenities and lifestyle advantages that they offer. Oh, to be able to look at the sunset on the lake, from your own backyard, while sipping on that piña colada... Isn't that priceless? Many buyers would absolutely agree!

Ok, so only 1-3% of properties in the better-known master-planned communities in Fort Bend county are listed as true "lakefront" properties at any point in time.
