Shaddock Development closed last week on 140 acres on the North west corner of Independence Parkway and Main Street.  Current plans for The Estates at Shaddock Park in Frisco are for 455 total homes with the first phase around 120 homes. 
 

Peter Shaddock is brothers with Bill Shaddock who is heading the new Shaddock Estates community

 
Lot sizes plan to be 55 foot wide, 65 foot wide and 74 foot wide for Shaddock Estates. What I have heard is Village Builders will have a larger chunk of the smaller lots and Darling Homes have taken the larger lots. 

  
I’m sure the Estates at Shaddock Park will be another incredible community being across from beside Lexington and down the street from Emory Park.

Emory Park in Frisco by MI Homes plans to start Pre Sales Summer of 2016!

Mar30

 
Emory Park in Frisco has plans to start Pre Sales late this summer! This will be the first community to start selling homes that was previously the Brinkmann Ranch!

   

The builder, MI Homes, is fairly new to DFW but they have been in business building homes for 40 years.  They are currently building homes  all over the Midwest, Washington DC, Texas, MInnesota, Florida, Chicago, North Carolina and South Carolina.

  
MI Homes entered the Texas market in 2010 starting in Houston then expanding to San Antonio followed by Austin. They came to DFW in 2013 and currently have 7 communities. They own several other pieces of land that are under development. 

  

“The Dallas-Fort Worth area is one of the nation’s most dynamic housing markets, with some of the countries strongest job growth and a healthy business environment,” stated Robert H. Schottenstein, M/I Homes CEO. And clearly we know he is correct! 

  
I’m pretty excited for Emory Park, and to tell you the truth there are several reasons. 

  

First off, the location directly off of Main Street in Frisco and very close to Coit Road is INCREDIBLE!  It will allow home owners easy access to both 121 Sam Rayburn Tollway, Preston and the Dallas North Toll Road. 

 

Secondly, it’s a small community. Plans are for only 105 homesites. The front section of the community will be phase one with 43 homesites which consist of 60 to 70 foot wide lots. The remaining 62 homesites will be phase two and will have home sites that are 40 foot wide. 

  

Lastly, MI Homes at Emory Park is a builder with over 40 years of experience!  In fact they are having their 40th birthday this year!  They have seen a lot and know what it takes to take care of their customers. 

  
Especially being in the Texas markets since 2010, and here in DFW since 2013. Their local team has been in this market for 15 plus years and knows how to treat their customers right!

  

 The Floorplans are currently a new lineup for MI Homes that will be 50 feet wide. For a good idea, look at their community Park Ridge in McKinney. Though the product in McKinney is 40 foot wide, it will give you a great idea of the type of product and finish out they plan to have in Emory Park.

Below are a couple floorplans that MI Homes will be offering at Emory Park!

7-Eleven (711) Gas Station Coming at Southwest corner of Rolater and Independence between Richwoods and Lawler Park in Frisco!

Mar30

  

7-Eleven is coming at the Southwest corner of Independence and Rolater in Frisco!  As a resident of Richwoods I have been very anxious to see what commercial properties will pop up in our quadrant and a 7-Eleven will definitely help future values. 

  

The 7-Eleven info is from the March 22nd, 2016 Planning and Zoning meeting for the City of Frisco. 

Since this is a portion of Lawlers Homestead, I feel pretty confident to say that his plan will only be to only sell the commercial pieces and keep his residence. Clearly, anything can happen but this is his plan for the future. 

  

On another note, the preliminary play has come out for the entrance of Richwoods which is a highly sought after location for any new home owner. Landon Homes and K Hovnanian Homes  (KHOV) are the planned builders for this location. 
Also, I plan to post about Brinkmann’s first piece of land that will start Pre Sales this Summer called Emory Park in Frisco. It’s going to be a really great place. Details coming soon!

ANNOUNCING Lexington in Frisco – A New Gated Community with Shaddock Homes, K Hovnanian Homes (KHOV), Toll Brothers Homes and Landon Signature Series Homes

Sep2

 Lexington will be developed by Landon Development, the powerhouse developer behind Richwoods in Frisco off Of Independence. Landon acquired the approximate 173 acres earlier this year and have already submitted preliminary plats for Lexington with the city of Frisco. 

   

At the City of Frisco Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting on April 28th, 2015, the preliminary plat was being discussed concerning Phases 1-6. Commission members Bobby Roberts (Vice Chairperson) and Kevin Hodes (Commissioner) both voiced their concern on the majority North and South facing lots. 

They were disappointed wanting more appeal with “curvy” streets. But the developer had a very valid statement on a letter submitted earlier to the city regarding the direction by stating “major factor of North/South lot orientation with today’s energy conscientious consumer,” which is very true!

In that letter the developer states, “The current plan will offer 1.8 acres in open space and parks, including a highly amenitized club house with a wellness center and swimming pool, similar to Richwoods!”

Now that is awesome!

  

Lexington will be Gated with 3 gates, and initially start out with a total of 8 Phases and 634 lots. Landon Development did purchase another approximate 134 acres from Brinkmann in July of 2015 that most likely will be additional phases to Lexington. This new tract of land is located South of the current phases and continues down to Main Street. 

The developer has been in touch with FISD regarding a school site on the property and the location will be at the North East corner of Lexington. 

The surrounding land around Lexington on Coit Road and Eldorado Parkway, has been retained by Brinkmann for the current zoning of light retail. This is vital considering the amount of new homes being built in and around Lexington. Commercial normally comes after residential development. 

Phases and Lots in Lexington

  

Centrally located, Phases 1-6 will consist of 502 lots and broken into three different standard lot sizes. 140 lots will be in the 65 foot wide by 115 foot deep. 208 lots will be 70 foot wide by 100 foot deep. 154 lots will be 74 foot wide by 120 foot deep. There will always be irregular shaped lots in any community which will not fall within those dimensions. 

  
Phases 7 & 8 will be North of the first 6 phases and will consist of 132 lots split into 2 different standard lot sizes. 

  
They will continue with 77 lots that are standard 74 foot wide by 120 foot deep. The other 55 lots will be considered the luxury home lots at a standard 90 foot wide by 130 foot deep. 

Lexington Builders

  

I couldn’t be happier with the builders that Landon Development has selected! All 4 builders are very well known and deliver absolutely stunning new homes. 

My best guess is as follows on which builders will be building in which section of lots. 

K Hovnanian Homes and Landon Homes will be in the 65’s. Landon Signature will be in the 70’s, 74’s and 90’s. Shaddock Homes will be in the 70’s or 74’s. And Toll Brothers will definitely be in the 90’s and possibly 74’s. 

Again, that’s MY guess! 

  
I think that the builders in Lexington will have an overall higher quality of luxury by including one of the Top builders in DFW, Shaddock Homes, comparing builders in Richwoods. 

  

Landon plans to offer an “empty nester” product that I think will be very successful and is needed in Frisco! 

The goal to start pre sale will be in the middle of 2016, but you never know in residential development. 

What we do know is that Lexington has a lot of many positive attributes going for it (from location, builders, amenities, lot sizes and being gated) and will be one of the most highly sought after communities in Frisco

  
“For updates on Lexington check back here or text or call Brad Holden at (469) 733-2723. I plan to stay in touch with all the builders and provide you as much information as they give to me.”
