Quick Update on the Lagoon at Windsong Ranch! Wow!


The Lagoon at Windsong Ranch is well underway! The last time I saw this it was all undeveloped land with some water and that was only like 8 months ago.

Windsong Ranch is a huge master planned development in Prosper. Many new builders have purchased lots due to the success like Shaddock Homes, Huntington Homes, Toll Brothers and Mainvue.

The Lagoon is 5 acres and is going to be the first of its kind with 3 white sand beaches with kayak rentals. It’s truly an amazing amenity that no other development around here can compare to.

There is a viewing platform where I filmed from that would blow anyone away seeing this in person.

Who wouldn’t want to live in a community with a Lagoon?

Britton Homes at Hollyhock in Frisco is down to their last 7 homes.


Britton Homes at Hollyhock in Frisco is down to their last 7 homes as of today.

Britton Homes is a fairly new builder to the DFW metroplex entering in 2015, but not new to home building. Britton Homes is the luxury line of Perry Homes ,based out of Houston, that has been in business for over 50 years.

The quality of their houses is evident by just walking through their model. I would compare Britton evenly to Darling Homes or Highland Homes.

Hollyhock is located in North Frisco and is considered more of a “boutique” community. It has a more modern look than most developments and landscaping is meticulously maintained.

Above is 1726 Coralbead Road, which is the first inventory home. that will be ready for move-in at the end of this month. It is 3,477 square feet with 4 bedroom and 3.5 bath.

It was originally priced at $572,900 but marked down now to $524,900! It is a pretty incredible deal considering the large lot and the upgrades that were included.

“For more on Britton Homes at Hollyhock in Frisco text or call Brad Holden today at (469)733-2723.

And don’t forget to ask how I can save you thousands on top of getting you the bottom line on your new dream home!”

Wow! Grand Opening of 2,500 homesites at Lakewood at Brookhollow in Prosper!


Lakewood at Brookhollow in Prosper has been in the works for too long. But now, the first phase of 650 homesites has been released to Darling Homes, Britton Homes and David Weekley Homes.

Lakewood at BrookhollowMost of the luxury new home communities, like Whitley Place and Mustang Lakes, are very far North when looking at a map of Prosper. Not this one!

Lakewood at Brookhollow’s entrances are off of 380 and Coit! Fantastic location to be able to get to places quickly.

Formerly this piece of land was referred to as “Meadowbrook,” the entire Lakewood development includes 645 single family residences at build out and represents the first phase of the storied Brookhollow master-planned community envisioned by LandPlan.

The Lakewood development under development today is 247 Home sites built by Darling Homes, Britton Homes and David Weekley Homes. Inspired by the infamous North Dallas community, Lakewood at Prosper will include the dedication of a new 22.8 acre public park, a private amenity Center with a resort style pool, clubhouse, formal gardens, bronze sculptures, a fishing lake, miles of hike and bike trails, future sports practice fields and stone screening walls throughout.

The developer has planned for a stunning entry with lush landscape and the focal point plans to be a 25 foot entry tower that is currently under construction.

The amenity center will be towards the middle of the community with a fitness room and a resort style pool and covered patio built by Gold Medal Pools.

Directly in front of the community at Coit and Highway 380, there is a commercial development currently with a CVS and, just announced, a Market Street will be the other Big name anchors.

Those two will bring other great retail options to the tract with 10 other pad sites currently available.

The three builders have done a fantastic job with their models.

Britton Homes really shows a very modern appeal! They are new to DFW, but as the luxury series of Perry Homes from Houston, their style easily makes them stand out from the rest.

Britton homes starts at around 2,969 square feet and can go up to 4,025 with 5 bedrooms and 5.5 baths!

David Weekley homes really gives you the “bang” for your “buck!” They start at 2,573 square feet and at $381,990 (as of today). The model ,called the Pinecrest, has an incredibly open design throughout the entire home.

The plan really flows well and the secondary bedrooms definitely are bigger than others I walked through.

Mustang Lakes in Prosper ISD is more like a Resort!


Mustang Lakes sits on close to 700 acres on a site where thoroughbred horses were bred, raised and trained. Owned by a former city of Dallas mayor, it was known as Twin Eagles Farms and many of the horses went on to win significant purses at races all around the country.

But as of today, there are 9 Luxury Builders currently building homes ranging from the $300’s up to more than $2 million. The builders are Highland Homes, Britton Homes, Coventry Homes, Dave R. Williams Homes, David Weekley Homes, Drees Homes , K Hovnanian Homes and Sharif and Munir.

From a location standpoint, Mustang Lakes is conveniently located on the Prosper/McKinney border and only 3 miles North of Hwy 380.

10 minute drive to the Dallas North Tollroad and this makes Mustang Lakes perfectly positioned away from the hustle and bustle and able to live in rolling hills and lakes.

The developer is Cambridge Communities. Mustang Lakes will be number 7 for them in DFW. Other notable communities they have developed are Westridge and Creekside. They do put a tremendous amount of thinking about usability to make sure the community is able to sustain for a long time.

The pools are stunning and laid out very well. They have a 20-acre Central Park with trails, mature trees, a lake, a play park and an island. This is not just an amenity center, it’s “The Club at Mustang Lakes!” See below the stunning pics of the entry, meeting rooms and state-of-the-art workout facility!

Residents can use the Club everyday and you can even rent the rooms out for special parties etc.

Mustang Lakes calls itself a new kind of Country Club. They also say that instead of a golf course (which could easily be done) but they wanted to give residents over 60 acres of open green space for everyone to enjoy!

“This includes 8 Lakes with waterfalls and fountains, nearly 10 miles of hike and bike trails along enhanced greenbelts and an island!”

I forgot to mention the Club at Mustang Lakes is over 12,000 square feet inside with extensive outdoor verandas and courtyards, interior lounges, meeting rooms, party areas, a kitchen and the state-of-the-art fitness center overlooking the pool and a lake.

Of the many models, Highland Homes model the 267 caught my eye, so I took a peek in.

In Mustang Lakes, Highland Homes builds on the larger 74 foot wide and 86 foot wide homesites.

The 267 plan immediately took my brain to the 269 model at Lawler Park which was the model. The layout is absolutely perfect!

The two main differences I saw between the two layouts was this one was not so high soaring and grandiose and the price was WAY much better!

This plan in Frisco would cost you around $800,000 but here, with their incentives and my discount you would be closer to under $600,000!! That’s a deal!

Mustang Lakes is definitely a very unique new development in its infancy stages which is always a great time to get in for the lowest prices and availability of Prime Lots!

“If you are interested in learning more about Mustang Lakes or any of the luxury builders text me today at (469)733-2723. And don’t forget to ask me how I can save you thousands on any new Home in the state of Texas!”

Britton Homes surged into the market and have been selling very well with their design and look. My opinion is they are pretty close to a Darling/Highland home.

Opportunities like this are rare but happen so the builders will be ready for the summer sales. The picture above is what I get paid, but for these 4 homes I’m willing to pass my clients $15,000 ADDITIONAL monies for more upgrades, closing costs or a rebate at closing!

Call or text Me today so I can explain how to get the best price at negotiations and have the smoothest building and closing process ever! Also, about timing to sell your current home if you have one to sell.

Britton Homes at Hollyhock in Frisco has some amazing opportunities! 


Britton Homes Hollyhock Frisco

Britton Homes Model at Hollyhock in Frisco.

A Hollyhock is a tall Eurasian plant of the mallow family, widely cultivated for its large showy flowers. 

Now since that’s out of the way, let’s talk about Friscos newest master-planned community Hollyhock and Britton Homes! 


Hollyhock is located just three miles from the Dallas North Tollway. The project is around 400 total acres and at build out will include approximately 836 single family homes!  Newland Communities and its partner North American Sekisui House (NASH) are the developers. This will be Newland Communities second Metroplex area community announced. The other being Canyon Falls in Flower Mound. 

“My personal excitement for Hollyhock is extremely high due to Newland also was the developer of one of the most successful developments ever, a 5,000 acre community called Stonebridge Ranch in McKinney!”

The Hollyhock Amenity Center will have a very distinct look that will set it apart from a normal development in Frisco. 


It has a contemporary feel that I have not seen in any other development. 

There will be close to 20 acres of amenities including the pool and parks. 

I really like the fact that Hollyhock to close to 300 acres of adjacent open space and parkland. 


Which includes Friscos Northwest Community Trail for off road biking as seen below. 

Frisco ISD Schools:

Hollyhock is located in Frisco ISD. Students will be attending currently schools listed below. 

Elementary: Newman Elementary School

Middle: Trent Middle School

High: Lone Star High School

Due to Frisco ISD wanting to keep schools smaller the school zone for most communities in Frisco may change any year. 


Now let’s talk Britton Homes at Hollyhock in Frisco. Above is their first phase of homes, they have a total of 35 lots. 

I am very happy with a standard size Lot size of 65 feet wide by 130 feet deep. To put that in persepective, most standard lots in developments are 65 feet wide by 115 deep! So here with Britton you will get an additional 975 feel of additional space! 


Britton homes includes pretty much what any buyer would like and MORE! A couple items I would like to point out that is not standard for other builders is they use Carrier 16 seer instead of the Trane air conditioning system. 


They use a heavy amount of polyseal instead of the cardboard styrofoam. A Tankless water heater is included. And lastly they use a 3rd party called Burgess for an additional inspection to make sure the home has no issues. 

Tax rate right now is 2.19% as well! 

But my favorite part of Britton Homes at Hollyhock is they have 10 inventory homes started! 3 are either a couple weeks out to be ready NOW! 

They have a home on Snapdragon that lists at $670,000 and my clients can contract it today for $43,000 TOTAL OFF

Here are some indoor pics of the inventory home on Snapdragon:


It has an incredible outdoor patio with sliding glass doors and a beautiful media/gameroom concept upstairs. 

ALSO, the home on Coralbead is the best deal for Britton. It lists at $624,900 and I get it closer to $604,000! It will most likely be one of the biggest homes in the neighborhood considering its 4,449 square feet! See pics below:

These Britton Homes will not last long so I can meet you out there and show you the community and homes if you would like a one on one tour!
