Wow! Newcastle Homes in Richwoods in Frisco


20130612-090640.jpg

Newcastle Homes at Richwoods in Frisco is selling like crazy!!!

Out of their 31 lots in the Country and the Landing, as of today only 2 of the lots are not spoken for. The others are either closed, sold or on hold. See below.

20130612-090934.jpg

Why is Newcastle selling so well? It’s simple.

Newcastle Homes has been around for many years in DFW. They have seen the ups and downs. They get it.

They also know what the buyer wants and have accommodated my clients wishes as best as they can.

20130612-091208.jpg

And they are by far the no-nonsense builder in Richwoods. Their prices have always been higher but they include the upgrades, wants and needs that you will be including with Toll Brothers or John Landon Signature Series.

They build a beautiful Porte Cochere plan that just makes sense. They build in the 4,200 to 5,200 range and normally include 5 bedrooms and always 3 car garages.

20130612-091653.jpg

Board on board 8 foot fence – standard. Upgraded Landscaping Package – Standard. And on and on and on.

20130612-091804.jpg

They definitely have a Texas exterior and it works!!! They are also building a stucco product and it as well works.

Richwoods in Frisco Pool Review


20130610-160100.jpg

This weekend, we ventured down to the pool at Richwoods both Saturday and Sunday and I will report that it is definitely is the best and Biggest community pool on North Texas!

The close to 8,000 square feet of Water is almost overwhelming when walking through the gate. A key fob is required when entering and you can enter in two different locations. There are 4 arbors scattered through the grounds for shade.

The kids area is fantastic with an entry at 6 inches and goes up to around 2.5 feet with fours small water fountain features.

20130610-161006.jpg

There is an awesome slide that is very deceiving, because it is FAST!!! A basketball goal is permanently cemented into the ground and there are poles for a volleyball net.

But what is just incredible is the size. It looks big when you first see it, but when you are in it WOW! It takes forever to get from one side to the other. A pool this big should be able to handle the number of homes in Richwoods.

And here is my small guy both days in the pool. My oldest was too excited to pose!

Richwoods Amenity Center in Frisco is 97% complete! The landscaping is almost completely in and the interior is amazing! It has plans to open early summer!!!

20130525-143149.jpg

First the entry for Richwoods Amenity center opens to a beautiful foyer with arches and a great combination of tile and stone. There is a flat screen that welcomes you with a large information center to the left about Richwoods.

20130525-143359.jpg

20130525-143430.jpg

To the right you will enter the 4,000 square foot work-out facility with lockers, and two large rooms for individual classes.

20130525-143553.jpg

20130525-143615.jpg

20130525-143635.jpg

But what really impresses me is to the left. You walk into a large beautiful open room that boasts a Texas sized fireplace, bar area and cathedral ceilings with rows of lighting right above your head!

20130525-143829.jpg

The cedar beams really give it character and the stone on the walls make it feel both new and luxurious.

20130525-144006.jpg

The plans are residents can rent this room and another out for parties or gatherings for a nominal fee. I can’t wait!

The resort style pools slide is almost complete and looks to be both fun and safe for the kiddos.

The pool was being filled up today and looks great!

20130525-144249.jpg

The Playground that is adjacent to the pool is up and after the big rain last night, they are waiting to add the wood chips until they level out the mud. Again, great for the kids.

20130525-144437.jpg

There are two sections for younger kids and larger toddlers.

20130525-144529.jpg

20130525-144606.jpg

K Hovnanian (KHOV) in Richwoods in Frisco waives lot premiums on Inventory Homes!


20130418-215358.jpg

K Hovnanian in Richwoods has decided to waive their lot premiums on all remaining lots! This comes as they plan to spec out all of the remaining lots with their best selling floor plans!

20130418-215838.jpg

It’s a very exciting time for KHOV knowing that they need the majority of their homes to close before their end of the year in October. Spec-ing out the homes will most likely help them achieve their goal.

20130418-220122.jpg

Here’s the best part for the buyers. If you catch these homes early enough, you get the spec price, get to choose flooring, fixtures, paint etc. and still get their incentives for a new home! That is $15,000 for upgrades and $4,000 for using their preferred lender as well!

20130418-220541.jpg

Kim Stewart the sales manager has a passion showing that KHOV builds a superior product than the competition. She talks about the second story flooring system, the HERS rating that shows how each home ranks when it comes to energy efficiency and even the way that they CAN make changes to the plan to accommodate each buyers needs.

20130418-221002.jpg

K Hovnanian is a no brainer for the buyer that wants everything included that matters, that’s for sure!

20130418-221206.jpg

For more info on KHOV or their lots call Brad Holden today at (469) 733-2723. And don’t forget to ask about my 4% Total Rebate for my clients that choose a K Hovnanian home.
