Patio Homes by Darling Flying Off the Shelves at Newman Village in Frisco
Share News:
Update: Many are asking about the price points of Darling’s Patio Homes — about $550,000 ish. There are so cute you could just snap them up!
You recall hearing about Newman Village, a 256 acre former Frisco farm turned into homes up at El Dorado Parkway and Legacy Drive. This is the fabulous gated community with so much art infused into daily life the development’s director is actually a curator. One of the best-selling home products at Newman Village is Darling’s patio homes. And guess who’s buying? Downsizing Baby Boomers who are loving the three bedrooms zero or almost no lot line yards that look like they have been lifted off Dallas’ M Streets.
“These buyers want selected amenities of a larger home, but they do not want the patio home idea,” says Mike Carter, Darling’s marketing director. “Big kitchen, big master, plenty of closets, storage, with all viewing points focusing on the back yard.”
When people downsize, explains Carter, they lose space they never or seldom used. The bedroom count goes down to three, with the master down, two upstairs with a shared bath. Some also want an overflow or bonus room upstairs, or a future game room.
These are the model patio homes up at Newman Village, and I have to say I was quite impressed with not just the quality of building, materials and finish out, I am loving these decors. These patio homes pull off a zero-maintenance product that looks high maintenance… patio homes for buyers who just don’t want to use that word!
These homes are so gorgeous! And Frisco is hot!

This is a gorgeous product. But actually, I think patio homes are flying off the shelves everywhere. Not just the aging demographic, but also people who just want less maintenance!
So true Cody. I think there is not enough product.

I agree with Ms Graves – why don't these builders look to south of LBJ.
In fact south of downtown Dallas, in Oak Cliff.
There's lots of cheap vacant land, and areas where these wound fit in nicely.
But I don't understand the obsession with "gated" communities – it's not like DFW is a third world country!
I think it's perceived safety.

I sold many many Darling homes over the years, they are a fabulous builder and I actually own one. Frisco is very family oriented and there are many parks so even with the patio homes, homeowners are very close to a public park if they wanted to let their kids or 4 legged friends run around. The gated part is really geared to attract the out of town buyers IMO. Locals know how safe Frisco is.
