Pearce on the Lake is at 900 Henderson Ave, Houston, TX 77058, in the Clear Lake area near NASA Johnson Space Center. For renters comparing budget-friendly rentals close to NASA Houston, the practical advantage is a location near the NASA Parkway and Bay Area Boulevard corridors, with one- and two-bedroom apartment options rather than a long commute from central Houston.
NASA Johnson Space Center is the area’s best-known employment anchor, associated with Mission Control, astronaut training, engineering, research, and a large network of aerospace contractors. Space Center Houston, the official visitor center for NASA Johnson Space Center, also brings steady activity to the neighborhood, so people who work on-site, support nearby contractors, attend training, host visiting family, or study in the Clear Lake area often want housing that keeps daily trips simple.
Getting around this part of Houston is usually car-oriented. Residents commonly use NASA Parkway, Bay Area Boulevard, El Camino Real, and the Gulf Freeway (I-45) to reach NASA, Webster, League City, Pasadena, Galveston, and the wider Houston metro. The location is also useful for errands around Clear Lake and Baybrook-area shopping, while still keeping waterfront recreation close to home.
At Pearce on the Lake, the floor plan mix is straightforward: one-bedroom homes and two-bedroom homes ranging from about 611 to 1,067 square feet. That range gives renters a few real trade-offs to compare, such as choosing the smaller A1 layout if you want a simpler footprint, or looking at the larger two-bedroom plans if you need a second bedroom for a roommate, office, or visiting family. Current pricing, deposits, move-in dates, and availability change, so the leasing office is the best source before you apply.
The community’s setting is a big part of its value. Pearce on the Lake offers a waterfront environment, walking and biking trails, a pool, hot tub, sundeck, poolside grills, courtyard, fitness center, package lockers, dog park, game court, open parking, and 24-hour emergency maintenance. Those are useful amenities for people with irregular NASA or contractor schedules, because you can fit in a workout, get outside by the water, or pick up packages without adding another stop to the day.
Inside the apartments, the features are practical for everyday living: air conditioning, heating, ceiling fans, cable-ready setup, tub/shower, disposal, stainless steel appliances, pantry, microwave, walk-in closets, window coverings, and a balcony or patio. The community also lists washer/dryer, fireplace, hardwood floors, carpet, vinyl flooring, crown molding, vaulted ceilings, and lake views, with lake views marked as available in select homes, so it is worth confirming the exact finishes and view for the apartment you tour.
Pet owners should ask for the current pet policy before applying, but Pearce on the Lake is listed as pet-friendly and includes a dog park and pet relief areas. The community’s published FAQ notes a maximum of two pets per apartment home, with pet fees, monthly pet rent, and possible breed or weight restrictions, so it is best to have those details reviewed in writing if you are moving with a dog or cat.
The honest trade-off is that this location is designed around Clear Lake and the NASA area, not downtown Houston. If your routine depends on frequent trips to the Texas Medical Center, Downtown, or the Energy Corridor, you should map those drives at the times you actually travel, especially because I-45 traffic can vary significantly by hour and weather.
If your search is focused on staying close to NASA while keeping your apartment choice practical, contact the Pearce on the Lake leasing office or schedule a tour to compare the available one- and two-bedroom layouts in person.
