Riverstone - Riverstone Offers New Neighborhoods, Model Homes, Builders

The housing market is thriving in Riverstone, with the Fort Bend community opening new neighborhoods, new models and introducing new builders.

Newmark Homes and Perry Homes just debuted model homes in Sweetbriar, a new neighborhood of 55-foot homesites with prices from the $250,000s. In addition to the new models, both builders also have completed homes available.

Nearby, Trendmaker Homes and David Weekley Homes are building on 80-foot wooded homesites in The Orchard neighborhood, with model homes slated to open this spring. Prices start in the $400,000s in the neighborhood, which will have only 24 homesites in the first section.

Additional homesites are available in Riverstone’s Nandina neighborhood. Darling Homes is the exclusive builder in the section, which features patio homes on 65-foot homesites and pricing from the $410,000s. The builder plans to open a model home in March.

Wooded homesites are available in all three neighborhoods.

Riverstone also will soon introduce two new builders to the community: Toll Brothers and Partners in Building. Both will offer semi-custom homes priced from the $500,000s.

In all, Riverstone expects seven new model homes to open in the first half of 2011.

“We ended 2010 with more 200 home sales, averaging approximately $450,000 each,” said Tom Wilcox, general manager of Riverstone. “We expect 2011 to be another stellar year.”

A 3,700-acre community, Riverstone is located at Highway 6, three miles south of U.S. 59. The development is slated for 6,000 homes during the next eight years. Residents enjoy two resort-style swimming complexes, a fishing pier, miles of trails and pedestrian walkways, the area’s first “bark park,” and more than 200 acres of lakes and waterways.
