New Meridiana Family Wins Dream Backyard Grand Prize

October 10, 2019

When Kenneth and Monique Corley purchased their new home in Meridiana this summer, little did the couple realize they would soon be in store for a big surprise.

Recently their name was drawn from among a number of entries as the winners of Meridiana’s summer $5,000 Live Life Brighter backyard promotion.  Those who purchased a new home in the community this past summer were automatically entered for the grand prize.

“They fell in love with the amenities and Meridiana’s small-community feel,” said Realtor Nick Boland of Texas Home Shop Realty.  “Coming from out of state, the community’s schedule of resident events also was a big plus.”            

Boland, who also won the $1,000 cash prize amongst Realtors, noted the Corleys are putting their winnings toward the purchase of a new outdoor kitchen where they’ll entertain friends and family. The winning couple is expected to move into their new home by Highland Homes later this year.

The 2017-2018 GHBA Community of the Year, Meridiana presents new homes from the low $200s to the $600s, including those on prized cul-de-sac homesites and in exclusive gated sections. 

The top-selling community along the Texas 288 corridor features the resident-only Oasis Village offering year-round recreation, fitness and community events.  Meridiana also is home to the onsite Meridiana Elementary School and a new, onsite junior high school opening in fall 2021.  A new high school will open adjacent to the fast-growing community in fall 2022.

To reach Meridiana and its Oasis Village Welcome Center, take the Meridiana Parkway exit from Texas 288, just minutes south of Pearland, heading north or south.  Heading south on Texas 288, take the parkway exit and turn left onto the overpass into Meridiana.  Those heading north on Texas 288 can take the parkway exit and turn right into the community.
