Developers at Walsh, the newly opened master-planned development in west Fort Worth, announced Britton Homes as an additional production and personalized homebuilder for the development’s first phase.
Walsh is the fourth Republic Property Group community to work with Britton Homes, including two that are among the best-selling master-planned communities in the nation. Builders at Walsh are guided by a 130-page pattern book full of architectural styles and floor plans that honor the heritage of Fort Worth’s great neighborhoods, including colonial, Mediterranean and Tudor.
“Britton Homes’ distinctive architecture, personalized features and superior design selections will bring character to the homes at Walsh,” said Jake Wagner, co-CEO of Republic Property Group. “We are excited to partner with Britton Homes on another community and look forward to the versatility, uniqueness and quality they will bring to future residents at Walsh.”
Britton Homes is part of the Perry Homes family founded in 1967. Other RPG communities with Britton Homes include Light Farms in Celina, Philips Creek Ranch in Frisco and The Villas at Legacy West. Britton’s plans for homes at Walsh will include floor plans of 2,800 to over 4,000 square feet at prices starting at the low $500,000’s.
Britton Homes joins David Weekley Homes, Drees Homes, HGC Residential Development, Highland Homes, Toll Brothers and Village Homes in building Walsh’s initial homes. The 587 home sites in the initial development phase range from 3,850 square feet to nearly an acre, and are all within a five-minute walk of a community park.
