They say the best things come to those who wait! If that’s true, then current and future residents of Tucker Hill are poised to see some of the biggest changes and growth since this single-family community broke ground in 2007.
Located in McKinney, Texas, Tucker Hill is a new home, traditional neighborhood development modeled after developer Southern Land Company’s award-winning Westhaven community located in Franklin, Tennessee. Tucker Hill boasts the same historically reminiscent architecture, nostalgic front porches, emphasis on lifestyle and resident events, and exceptional horticulture that have become the standard of an SLC community.
Residents recently celebrated the opening of their Residents’ Club which features almost 4,000 square feet of both furnished indoor and covered outdoor patio space. Built adjacent to their current resort-style pool that features a zero-entry area and splash fountains, residents now have a café kitchen space and a gathering area for parties and meetings. The Dutch Colonial-inspired design compliments the architectural styles found throughout the community and will be joined in the future with the construction of a separate Fitness Center.
Other community amenities already in place include a private dog park, two playgrounds (with one geared towards toddlers), a pond with nearby fire pit, a “Lawn Chair Amphitheatre” which plays host to outdoor concerts, and “Founders Square” – home to a majestic wrought iron fountain.
Resident and public events round out the list of amenities found at Tucker Hill as our Lifestyle Coordinator plans several private resident events each month. Marketing continues to host two to three public events per year that provide guests with the opportunity to glimpse into what life is like for those living in Tucker Hill.
Phase 4 lots will feature lots sized from 41’, 46’, 56’ and 69’ across. Square footage will range from 1,800 to over 4,000 square feet. Prices will start in the low $400s. This phase includes a generous amount of new open space, including an inviting central landscaped square and a linear greenbelt that fulfill SLC’s commitment that residents will have no more than a 5-minute walk to access green space. All of the homes built in this phase will continue to feature the coveted front porch which helps set Tucker Hill apart from other DFW area communities. As part of this new phase will finish out the northeast portion of Tucker Hill’s borders, SLC will also develop a portion of the future paved hike/bike trail in conjunction with the City of McKinney’s master plan. The remaining routes for this hike/bath trail will be completed as future phases are developed.
Several opportunities for immediate move-in also remain in Phase 3 with not only Darling and SLC Homebuilding, LLC, homes, but also with David Weekley Homes, who is closing out within Tucker Hill. Prices start in the low $400s and square footage ranges from 1,800 to over 3,500 square feet.
By the fall of 2017, Tucker Hill will also see the opening of “Harvard Park.” This project will be an almost 40,000 square foot, three-story commercial development situated on Highway 380 between the two main entrances of the community. By being so close by, it will fulfill the Traditional Neighborhood Development concept by giving residents the ability to choose walking or bike-riding to access the merchants.
As the primary anchor, Keller Williams McKinney will move into approximately 18,500 square feet of second floor space and will be joined by two title companies and a bank, which will also feature a drive-through. The project has been designed and is being built by Dallas-based Crown Sterling Properties, who purchased the site from SLC. Upon completion, the building will officially be owned by The NASH Group. The architectural plans for this building look and feel much like something you would find in an historic town square. Much thought and collaboration has gone into a design that reflects the same architectural standards found in Tucker Hill. The building will feature a shaded, roof-top meeting space, substantial parking, and landscaped areas for added appeal. Space is also available for at least one restaurant, one coffee shop that includes a drive-through component, and perhaps an independent medical office.
Tucker Hill is located on beautiful rolling land set back on the north side of U.S. 380 (West University Drive) between Custer and Ridge Roads. We are only 5 minutes from either Highway 75 or the Dallas North Tollway, making commutes to area attractions easily accessible. We’re just far enough away from Dallas to provide a respite from the pace and frenzy of the big city, yet close enough to let residents take advantage of all that Dallas has to offer.

Windsong Ranch — An extraordinary place to live.
Windsong Ranch in Prosper, Texas, was recently recognized by the National Association of Home Builders as one of the top 6 master-planned communities in the entire nation. In addition, the community has won over forty awards, being recognized in prestigious categories such as Lifestyle Program of the Year and The People’s Choice Award. While it is remarkable for a residential community to receive all of these accolades, it is even more extraordinary to learn that Windsong Ranch has received these recognitions, not just once, but for multiple years. So, what makes this place so uniquely special and so beloved by its residents? Let’s explore.
The 2,030-acre residential community, developed by Tellus Group LLC, is conveniently located at 1001 Windsong Parkway South, just 2.5 miles west of the Dallas North Tollway on the north side of Highway 380 in Prosper, TX. This area represents some of the most sought-after residential properties in the greater Dallas area. It’s known for its exciting growth, convenience to unique retail and wonderful nearby dining experiences, exceptional schools, ties to historic small-town charms and the warmth of its people making it a perfect backdrop to daily life.
Inside the community, however, is the true “Wow-factor.” Windsong Ranch’s significant lifestyle and amenity package is now headlined by THE LAGOON, a five-acre, crystal clear lagoon that brings Caribbean-like beauty to the community. At THE LAGOON, residents and their guests can relax in lounge chairs on the white sand beaches or enjoy an array of watersports, such as paddleboarding and kayaking, out on the clear turquoise waters. It is truly an amenity you have to see to believe!
While the beach-like lifestyle of THE LAGOON is one of the most unique amenity offerings in all of North Texas, Windsong Ranch is made truly exceptional by its thoughtful land plan. The community offers over 600 acres of green space throughout the property including parks, open play areas, creeks, ponds and miles of wide hike and bike trails. THE COMMONS, directly adjacent to the event lawn, is where residents come to enjoy Windsong Ranch Café and the convenience of free WiFi, an outdoor living area, resort-style pools with cabanas and grilling areas, a state-of-the-art fitness center, four lighted tennis courts, pickleball court, basketball court and a kids creative play area. Amazingly, there is more. Additional amenities include a beautiful community garden complete with historic windmill, a mountain bike course that winds its way through wonderful natural areas, a challenging 18-hole championship disc golf course and a dog park. There is virtually something for every member of the family.
Windsong Ranch sits inside the Prosper Independent School District which is one of the highest-ranked school districts in the state of Texas. Conveniently for families, the community already features several on-site schools and daycares, with a second elementary school beginning construction this year. Future plans also include a middle school and high school to be built within the community.
Upon completion, Windsong Ranch will consist of 3,324 single-family homes and 150 acres of mixed-use development along U.S. Highway 380.
Homes at Windsong Ranch include villas and townhomes starting in the low $300,000s and single-family homes ranging from the mid $400,000s to over $1,000,000. Lot sizes range from 61’to 86’ and feature exceptional builders such as American Legend Homes, Belclaire Homes, Drees Custom Homes, Grenadier Homes, Highland Homes, Huntington Homes, MainVue Homes, Shaddock Homes, Shaddock Caldwell Custom Homes, Southgate Homes and Tradition Homes. Models are open daily for tours.
