New Home Communities in Texas Opening Soon

There is a growing demand for new home communities in Texas as more families and individuals discover the unmatched quality of life the Lone Star State offers. Today’s homebuyers are looking for more than just a house; they want a dynamic, lifestyle-driven neighborhood that fosters genuine connection. That is exactly why so many buyers are drawn to Texas master-planned communities. These meticulously designed neighborhoods offer an incredible blend of nature, modern amenities, and welcoming environments.

Hillwood Communities is thrilled to meet this demand with three remarkable new projects currently in development: Landmark in Denton, Ramble in Celina, and Melina in Georgetown.

Why Buyers Are Choosing Texas Master-Planned Communities

Finding the perfect home goes far beyond the walls of the house; it’s about the lifestyle, convenience, and opportunities your community provides.

Designed for the Way Texans Live

Modern homebuyers want spaces that reflect their love for the outdoors and community. Our neighborhoods feature walkable layouts that make it easy to stroll to a neighbor’s house or the community park. An abundance of green space and miles of winding trails encourage an active lifestyle that incorporates nature, inviting residents to step outside, stay active, and enjoy the beauty of the outdoors every day. 

These amenity-rich environments are intentionally designed with an emphasis on community building, allowing residents to form lasting connections with both the land and each other.

The Value of Texas Planned Communities

Investing in Texas planned communities means investing in a cohesive community vision. Because Hillwood takes a long-term development planning approach, we ensure that every neighborhood evolves beautifully over time. We partner with the highest quality homebuilders to create lasting, beautiful streetscapes. 

Ultimately, the true value lies in the profound sense of belonging residents feel, resulting in the enduring value of buying a home in our new planned communities.

Now Selling: Landmark by Hillwood

Bringing a visionary 3,200-acre development to southern Denton, Landmark by Hillwood is intentionally designed to elevate nature and offer homebuyers a vibrant, mixed-use destination to live, work, play, and learn.

A Denton Destination Guided by the Land

Situated in southern Denton, Landmark is uniquely defined by its surrounding natural areas. For centuries, the distinctive topographic features of Pilot Knob and the Cross Timbers Forest served as a wayfinder for pioneers. Today, these same features provide a breathtaking backdrop for this expansive, 3,200-acre development. 

Residents will enjoy seamless connectivity to the rich resources, vibrant entertainment, and excellent education opportunities of Denton, while living in a peaceful, nature-immersed environment.

Vision, Amenities, and Enduring Appeal

Landmark’s overall vision and design philosophy elevate nature for the benefit of all. Envisioned around an incredible 1,100-acre green ecosystem, the community will feature S.T.E.A.M.-focused learning parks, recreation areas, and extensive trails. At its heart lies a planned 300-acre park and entertainment district offering retail, dining, hospitality, and outdoor activities.

Appealing to a wide variety of homebuyers—from young professionals to growing families—Landmark will feature 6,000 new homes at build out. Through our nine trusted builder partnerships, homebuyers can choose from a diverse range of home designs ranging from the high $300s to $1M+ for the initial phase. This harmonious blend of 5 million square feet of mixed-use space with spectacular residential living sets Landmark apart from typical Texas new home communities.

Now Selling: Ramble by Hillwood

Inviting future residents to wander naturally where all paths lead home, Ramble by Hillwood is our breathtaking new planned community in Celina that seamlessly weaves the rhythms of everyday living into the natural landscape. Set within the rolling North Texas prairie, woodlands, and wetlands, Ramble is uniquely envisioned as a community designed within a park where natural beauty, gathering spaces, and walkable connections shape everyday life.

Live and Wander Naturally in Celina

Located just two miles north of downtown Celina, Ramble spans 1,380 acres of scenic natural landscapes and thoughtfully integrated open-air spaces. The land’s rolling hills, water features, and mature trees inspired a community planning philosophy rooted in nature and everyday wellness. A seven-mile greenbelt known as the Ramble Trailway will anchor an expansive network of trails, parks, lakes, and open spaces that weave through neighborhoods, encouraging residents to walk, explore, and reconnect with the outdoors. With places designed to gather, wander, and wonder close to home, Ramble invites residents to slow down, observe the beauty of the land, and experience life at a more balanced pace.

Embracing the Evolution of Suburban Dallas New Home Communities

Ramble beautifully reflects the evolution of new home communities north of Dallas by prioritizing meaningful connections to both nature and neighbors. Thoughtfully planned amenity spaces, lifestyle programming, and outdoor experiences will activate Ramble’s green spaces and gathering areas with events, festivals, clubs, and nature-focused activities that inspire wellness and community. Designed to educate, expose residents to nature, and foster environmental stewardship, Ramble encourages people of all ages to develop a deeper appreciation for the land while enjoying a lifestyle that feels both restorative and vibrant.

Additionally, Ramble offers unbeatable connectivity to surrounding employment and growth areas. Located between Preston Road and Custer Road, the community is just a short drive from Frisco’s premier destinations, including Stonebriar Centre, while still maintaining the charm and welcoming spirit of family-friendly Celina.

Ramble’s five new construction builders are now selling, with model homes opening in Spring 2026.

Coming in 2027: Melina by Hillwood

Set to become a vibrant hive of connection to the north of Austin, Melina by Hillwood is a beautifully planned 200-acre community where warmth, joy, and authenticity naturally bloom.

Cultivating Connection in Georgetown

Located on 200 acres in southeastern Georgetown, near University Boulevard and SH 130, Melina boasts a strategic location and accessibility. The community’s design approach pays homage to Williamson County’s agricultural heritage. Its name derived from the Greek word for “honey,” Melina is envisioned as a hive of connection where warmth and authenticity bloom.

Designed for the Future

Targeting homebuyers looking for top-tier Georgetown ISD schools and a vibrant, connected lifestyle, Melina will feature approximately 840 homesites. Anticipated amenities and shared spaces include miles of trails, three scenic lakes, pollinator gardens, a covered pavilion, an open-play field, sports courts and a spectacular resort-style pool.

Through carefully curated builder partnerships, Melina will offer a beautiful range of home styles crafted with natural harmony in mind. As one of the most exciting new home communities in Texas, Melina perfectly captures Hillwood’s long-term value proposition of quality and livability.
