Tuscan Lakes - Tuscan Lakes boasts broad range of homes, prices

(League City, Texas – January, 2010)  Offering homes from some of the nation’s largest builders, Tuscan Lakes boasts master-planned community luxury with prices from the $130,000s.

With a broad range of homes, Tuscan Lakes added to its roster of builders late last year, including KB Home, named the “World’s Most Admired Homebuilder” by Fortune magazine in 2009, 2008 and 2006. The builder offers an array of designs in Tuscan Lakes priced from the $130,000s. Also new to Tuscan Lakes is national builder D.R. Horton and local favorite CastleRock Communities.

The three join an impressive slate of existing builders, including Newmark Homes, Wilshire Homes, Chesmar Homes, Meritage Homes, Highland Homes and Coventry Homes, which offer designs in eight neighborhoods including Sovana, with prices from the $130,000s; Sonoma and Bel Terra, from the $160,000s; Ravenna, from the $180,000s; Belagio, from the $200,000s; Cortona and Toscana, from the $290,000s; and Sedonia, from the $300,000s. Masterful land planning allows for many cul-de-sac homesites, as well as properties that border green space and waterways.

Custom builders offer designs from the $600,000s to the millions in Siena, Tuscan Lakes’ custom neighborhood. A gated village, Siena offers half-acre homesites secluded on cul-de-sac streets or bordering one of the many lakes found throughout Tuscan Lakes.

Planned for 1,850 homes, the 870-acre Bay Area community is dedicating more than 150 acres of open space to enhance its Mediterranean style. Architectural elements mirroring the style of Tuscany are integrated into amenities and common areas including an aqueduct at the main entrance, parks, pools, lakes, nature preserves, greenbelts, walkways and jogging trails. Residents enjoy a resort-style recreation complex, with an arched arcade, stone accents and a decorative tower. The swimming complex, offering a tot pool, lap swimming area and zero-entry area with spray park, has nearly 5,300 square feet of water play. Adding to its attractiveness, the pool wraps around a large, circular rise landscaped with Italian cypress trees.

The complex also features a gathering space anchored by a massive stone fireplace and shaded by an arbor, and a large children’s playground. 

An on-site activities director keeps residents busy with a full calendar of events, including fitness classes, Bunco, seasonal family festivals and more.
