Celebrating the Seasons in Frisco

Posted on by

Dr. Pepper Ball Field Frisco TX

Over the last decade, demand for new homes in Frisco, TX has risen along with the population, making it the fastest growing city in the United States. It’s easy to see why. This North Dallas suburb features excellent schools, arts, entertainment and recreation including Junior League championship hockey, Minor League baseball, Major League soccer, and National Championship cyclist racing. 

Despite its rapid growth, Frisco still retains its small town charm as demonstrated by the seasonal events that take place each year. One of those signature events is Christmas in the Square – a holiday extravaganza featuring one of the largest choreographed holiday light shows in Texas, holiday-themed outdoor movies, carriage rides, model trains, real snow, and of course, Santa Claus! 

Sports take on a big focus in January as Frisco hosts the NCAA Division 1 Football National Championship as well as the Winter Games of Texas, a forum where Texas’ Olympic hopefuls, amateur and recreational athletes compete.  

Art lovers head to Frisco Square in early March for an outdoor gallery displaying original creations by more than 100 of the best national and regional artists. Arts in the Square also offers activities for children of all ages along with live, local entertainment. 

During the summer, the slogan “buy fresh, buy local” is brought to life at the Frisco Farmers Market, where a bounty of fresh fruits and vegetables, meats, desserts and gourmet items are sold. During the evenings, the whole family can gather on lawn chairs or blankets to watch Frisco’s “Movies in the Square.”

Landon Welcomes New Sales Manager at Austin Ridge

Posted on by

Landon Homes welcomes Dean Liter as the new sales manager at Austin Ridge, its brand new home community in southwest Frisco, TX. Austin Ridge is part of Lone Star Ranch, a master planned community featuring rolling hills, hike and bike trails, streams, lakes, fountains, open spaces and thousands of trees.

As a resident of Lone Star Ranch, Liter knows first hand about the terrific amenities that will be available to Austin Ridge residents. The community has a three-tiered, resort-style swimming pool with waterfalls, a large clubhouse that can be rented, and a fitness center loaded with state of the art equipment. Plus, Austin Ridge is close to the North Dallas Tollway and Highway 121, making it convenient for commuting.

Liter has a unique history with Landon Homes and its president, John Landon. Dean built his first home with John, and enjoyed the process so much, that he asked to come to work for Landon.

When asked why someone should buy a Landon home, Liter says no other builder in the area is doing what Landon does in terms of energy efficiency. The homes in Austin Ridge feature the latest energy efficient technologies, including thicker lumber that holds 57% more insulation than traditional homes, a radiant heat barrier to reduce attic temperatures, and air conditioning systems that exceed Energy Star standards. These features help to significantly reduce the monthly utility bills for a Landon homeowner.

The first models in Austin Ridge are expected to be ready in about three months. Until then, visitors are welcome to stop by our sales trailer and view our floorplan designs and under construction inventory.
