Walkable Coastal Village

A Village by Design

Cinnamon Shore was planned as a village, with streets made for walking, porches made for gathering, and homes designed to feel timeless from the first summer.

Here, days unfold between the Gulf, pools, parks, and lakes. Enjoy dining, events, and shopping, and stay in homes designed for gathering. Everything feels close, connected, and considered. Plus, you can elevate your stay with experiences and on-site services: beach bonfires, family photography, golf carts delivered to your driveway, not to mention daily, seasonal activities like sandcastle lessons to round out the fun.

By Design

The Texas Coast,
designed differently.

Cinnamon Shore was planned to feel like a village, not a subdivision. Streets are walkable. Porches feel friendly and invite conversations. Pools, parks, restaurants, lakes, and beach access become landmarks for navigating the village and for making memories. Time here moves slower from the moment you arrive.

01

Architecture

Gabled rooflines, wraparound porches, shiplap siding, and timeless coastal details give every home its signature charm.

02

Living Spaces

Natural light, coastal color, and understated interiors make each home feel polished, casual, and ready for family time.

03

Landscape

Hardy palms, bright blooms, paver paths, and lake edges soften the streetscape and ground the village in the coastal zone.

04

Walkability

Beach, town center, pools, parks, and restaurants all sit within a short walk or cart ride from home.

That is the quiet luxury of Cinnamon Shore: a place that feels effortless because every detail was planned.

New Urbanism · The Master Plan

A community planned with purpose.

Cinnamon Shore began with a vision for something different on the Texas Coast. The village was established in 2006 and designed with New Urbanist principles that prioritize walkability, beauty, shared spaces, and connection. Urban designer Mark Schnell and his team helped shape the master plan, design code, streetscapes, parks, pools, pavilions, dune crossovers, and the overall village framework.

A beach community should be beautiful, practical, neighborly, and easy to enjoy.
