CANDY’S DIRT: Rockhill Capital & Investments Announces 450-Home Community Near Downtown Celina
By April Towery
The Ranch at Uptown Celina, a 450-home residential community, is coming soon to 150 acres two miles east of the future Dallas North Tollway extension, developers announced Thursday.
North Texas-based Rockhill Capital & Investments released information on the project, planned for F.M. 455 and Celina Parkway. Homes will be built by Taylor Morrison and Toll Brothers immediately northwest of downtown Celina.
Keith Hurand, Taylor Morrison’s division president for Dallas-Fort Worth, said the builders are thrilled about the new development.
“Homebuyers want master-planned communities with quality amenities in their neighborhood as well as premier home designs,” Hurand said in a press release. “Taylor Morrison will be offering a variety of floor plans inspired by our homeowners to maximize how they enjoy their living space.”
Grading will commence early this year with Taylor Morrison and Toll Brothers offering homes on four lot sizes in the master-planned community.
Plans include an amenity center, pool, water feature, parks, and green space. A golf-cart-friendly hike-and-bike trail will run along the southern boundary of The Ranch, giving residents in-and-out access to Celina’s family-friendly downtown square, developers said.
The Ranch at Uptown Celina is one of four communities within the 675-acre Uptown Celina district within the “Golden Corridor” between the Dallas North Tollway and Preston Road, adjacent to downtown Celina and a future entertainment district.
“People are drawn to Celina for its sense of community – and the historic downtown square is a huge part of that,” said Ryan Griffin, principal at Rockhill Capital & Investments. “Uptown Celina will be an extension of downtown, offering ‘backyard’ access via its trails. We are excited to advance this project alongside talented builder partners, Taylor Morrison and Toll Brothers, starting with The Ranch at Uptown Celina.”
