Land is being readied for a massive master-planned community in northern Dallas-Fort Worth that is slated to include thousands of homes and a new H-E-B store.
Infrastructure work at Furst Ranch — a 2,300-acre master-planned community located at U.S. Highway 377 and Cross Timbers Road between Flower Mound, Bartonville and Argyle — is expected to begin in October, according to a filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.
The work is expected to be completed by April 2026, and estimated construction costs are nearly $29 million. Details in TDLR filings are preliminary and subject to change without notice.
Starwood Land and the Furst family of Flower Mound are among the partners on the project. Much of the development is located in Flower Mound.
“There’s dirt already moving,” said Robert Furst, a partner at Furst Ranch. “It’s going to be substantial. They’re going to be laying roads and utilities.”
Plans announced for the first phase last year show three neighborhoods with roughly 1,400 homes.
The High Plains neighborhood will have 1,100 homes on lots ranging from 50 feet to 80 feet wide. The Prairie Vista neighborhood will have 200 homes on lots ranging from .5 acre to 1 acre. The Cross Timbers neighborhood will have 74 homes on lots ranging from 1 to 2 acres.
Homebuilders involved in the project include David Weekley, Coventry, Highland, Shaddock, Drees, Tradition and Partners in Building with homes ranging from $800,000 to over $2.5 million, according to previous reporting.
Development will start in the High Plains neighborhood. Home construction is expected to start in late 2026 or 2027. The homes would be built over 10 to 12 years, according to a 2024 post on Furst Ranch’s Facebook page.
However, more than just infrastructure work is happening at the site.
Grocer H-E-B purchased a roughly 23-acre site on the northeast corner of U.S. 377 and Farm to Market 1171 from the Furst family at the end of June, according to Denton County deed records.
The Flower Mound Town Council approved the grocer’s request for a parking ratio for 733 parking spaces across 110,000 square feet in May.
