The uptick in single-family home construction continues in the Kendall Town Center planned use development near Regency Square Boulevard.
Developer Patriot Ridge LLP recently received rezoning approval on 15.99 acres from commercial to residential, where it will add 60 lots to the underway Mill Creek West community.
The homes will be built by D.R. Horton.
This is in addition to Lennar’s recent announcement of 167 homes on 54 acres in Mill Creek North off the Southside Connector between Lone Star Road and Holland Street.
Lennar is building 94 homes in Mill Creek East, its two projects separated by a proposed apartment complex.
“It’s a great location,” said Patriot Ridge principal Greg Matovina of the increase in housing activity in the area.
D.R. Horton is already building on 15 previously approved Mill Creek West lots near Kendall Parkway and Regency Square Boulevard.
In all, Mill Creek West will have 75 homes, all of them built by Horton.
Homes under construction or completed range in size from 1,557 square feet to 2,511 square feet and in price from $215,990 to $259,990. Development of the new 60-lot phase has yet to begin.
“We have not broken ground on the infrastructure for Phase II yet,” Matovina said.
