Standard Features Included in Sandcastle’s New Construction Homes

February 20, 2026

When you choose a new construction home, the details matter! At Sandcastle Homes, we believe your home should come packed with features other builders consider “upgrades.” From day one, our standard features are designed to deliver style, comfort, and long-term value, making it easy to see why so many buyers consider us the best Houston home builder.

Our homes are thoughtfully designed with modern living in mind. Standard architectural details like soaring ceilings, open-concept layouts, and oversized windows create bright, welcoming spaces that feel both functional and refined. Inside, you’ll find high-end finishes such as hardwood flooring, designer-selected tile, and premium cabinetry. They’re all included without the added cost you’d often see elsewhere. In the kitchen, we go beyond the basics. granite countertops, custom cabinetry, stylish backsplashes, and stainless-steel appliances come standard, giving you a chef-inspired space that’s ready for everyday meals or entertaining guests. Bathrooms are equally impressive, featuring spa-like finishes, elegant fixtures, and frameless glass showers that elevate your daily routine.

Energy efficiency and smart construction are also core to our standard offerings. Our homes include modern insulation techniques, energy-efficient windows, and advanced HVAC systems to help keep utility costs down while maintaining year-round comfort. Many builders charge extra for these essentials—we see them as non-negotiable. What truly sets us apart is peace of mind. From durable materials to meticulous craftsmanship, our standard features are chosen to stand the test of time. Buyers are often surprised to learn how much they’d need to upgrade with another builder to match what we already include, one more reason why Sandcastle Homes is recognized as the best Houston home builder by discerning buyers.

We also have a variety of move-in-ready homes available now, making it easier than ever to find the perfect fit. If you’re ready to experience the difference for yourself or want to learn more about our standard features and available homes, call us today at 281-543-6360. Your path to a better-built home starts here.

"We are so grateful to have found Sandcastle Homes! They’ve made the home-buying process so much easier and more enjoyable than we could have imagined. They are responsive, respectful, and always put the customer first. We truly appreciate the speed and accuracy with which they’ve addressed any concerns we’ve brought up throughout the process and can’t wait to officially own our first home. Sandcastle has a team that clearly values one another as much as they do their customers, and you can feel a sense of community when working with them."

"Sandcastle did an amazing job with my house. They came through on everything they promised. Jose Salas, the construction manager, is very helpful even after we closed on the house. He goes above and beyond. Getting to meet the owner, Salomon, during the closing was a great experience as many other builders don’t do this. We love our house and the quality of it!!"

Enrique and Judith

"We just moved into our new home by Sandcastle. Since the beginning of the process the whole Sandcastle team paid great attention to our requests and responded rapidly. We were lucky to get in contract in time for us to choose colors, kitchen design, finishes and other and all our requests were reflected in our new house. At the end of the closing, the team always kept the same great attitude towards us and helped us with any question or request. We would say one of the greatest things about Sandcastle is that they really back up what they sell: best price, best service, best quality in town. We ended up extremely pleased with our new house."

Andres and Marcela

"I just moved into my new Sandcastle home and I think it’s a wonderful place to live. They have been very helpful, particularly Lynette and Steve. From the owner Mike Salomen down, it has been a truly positive experience. I would highly recommend anyone who wants to buy a new home that is built of high quality to consider this home builder."
