I dropped out to the 32 acres in west Allen yesterday to take a look at the progress being made. The work crews and heavy equipment operators were busy working on-site.
The developer has made quite a bit of progress since the the last time I was there. The main lake appears to be completed, the ground for the homesites has been leveled, and they are preparing to install the sewer system.
We spoke to Ashton Woods last week and the project is still on-schedule to begin pre-sales in November 2011.

When I retired from the Air Force, I relocated to the Dallas area. As I began my search for a place to live, I was amazed at the number of golf courses in the area. I eventually settled on the north Dallas suburbs in Collin County. Collin County includes the cities of Plano, Richardson, Allen, Fairview, Lucas, McKinney, and Frisco.
While I don’t golf, the idea of living on the course is appealing for a number of reasons. Living in the suburbs usually means subdivisions with homes on smaller lots. I really don’t want to have to look into my neighbor’s window every time I look out mine. I also noted that those homes seem to sell quicker and at a higher price.
I recently sold a new home on the Westridge Golf Course in McKinney. My client was able to purchase the home for about $205k! The builder is closing out the subdivision and the lot premiums are being reduced so they can finish out.
Prices for homes on golf course lots range from $175k to several million dollars. The good news is there is something for almost everyone.

The amount of wildlife in Ridgeview Ranch never ceases to amaze me. I guess it’s the benefit of living adjacent to the golf course. Rabbits are abundant and we even see coyotes several times a year.
Ridgeview Ranch is a master planned golf course development of about 885 homes located in the heart of north Plano. The community consists of four distinct communities – The Villages at Ridgeview Ranch, The Estates of Ridgeview Ranch, The Manors at Ridgeview Ranch, and Ridgeview Ranch West.
Community amenities include two pools, a fitness center, playgrounds, parks, and the Ridgeview Ranch Golf Course.

I don’t know what it is about lake-front properties in Texas. Perhaps it’s because it can be hot and dry in the summer or maybe we simply like the idea of seeing water and the trees that usually call the area around our lakes home.
Water-front homes run from $30k for a small one bedroom cabin on a remote lake to several million dollars for a mansion on a large body of water close to one of the major cities. There is truly something for everyone.
