Groundbreaking in The Preserve in Allen

By Tom Branch, on April 19th, 2011

We’ve been following this project ever since the sign went up on the 32 acres in west Allen. We drove by the other day and the developer has started breaking ground!

Groundbreaking in The Preserve in Allen

Most of the large native oak trees had protective rings installed around them so the heavy equipment operators would avoid damaging them. Once the basic layout is completed, they can begin installing utilities and pouring the roads.

We spoke to Ashton Woods and they are on-schedule to start pre-selling in November 2011.

We’ll post updates as more becomes available.

Excitement is in the air surrounding The Preserve in Allen since Ashton Woods put up their sign on this prime location on McDermott Rd. east of Custer.

Plans include 104 single family front-entry homes starting in the mid to upper $200s. Standard lot size will be 50’ x 115’, but 40% of the community will have cul-de-sac or oversized lots from 6,000-7,000 square feet. Minimum home size will include at least 1,900 square feet of living space.

The main focal point of the development will be a large lake with lighted fountain. 50% of the homes will have a lake view or will back directly to the lake. The builder is adding additional trees, and hike and bike trails for the homeowners.

The Preserve in Allen is currently zoned to the exemplary Allen School District including Evans Elementary, Ereckson Middle School, and Allen High School – all rated exemplary for 2010 by the Texas Education Agency.

Ashton Woods plans to begin pre-selling homes in November, 2011.
