Don’t miss this special chance to tour the first development ever to
earn Texas Parks and Wildlife Department’s Lone Star Land Steward
Award, which recognized The Woodson Place as the first Texas
community to integrate “greenbuilt” homes with conservation
development goals of parkscape living, wildlife habitat
preservation, and native plant wildscaping!
Offering guided tours today will be our Realtor, Beth Johnson of
Advocates Realty. Beth is the world’s first Realtor to earn the
“Quadruple Crown” of greenbuilding credentials, and she’s the first
Texas Realtor to earn either EcoBroker or LEED AP credentials.
Tour greenbuilt and other design features of our Texas
farmhouse-style “Idea Home” in our Meadows Village that garnered
highest (5-star) recognition under Austin’s Green Building Program.
Take a quiet golf cart tour (or walk on your own) to learn about our
wildlife ponds, woodlands, prairies, trails, and community gathering
facilities. On the shady porch beneath ceiling fans, rock and relax
to cicada song, sip country lemonade and eat Mimi’s chocolate chip
cookies, and learn about what the Dallas Morning News featured as
the “Green Home on the Range” where wildlife preservation and
sensitive development co-exist.
Tours may also be available (call to confirm) of recently completed
homes in our Edgewood and Westfield Villages that are expected to
achieve recognition under U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED
(Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) program and the Home
Builders Association’s Green Built Texas program respectively.
Lot selection is still good, and this is your chance to choose your
special lot for your custom home!
For more details and to RSVP (much appreciated!), please call Beth
Johnson, Advocates Realty, 214.415.5089.
Activity is booming at The Woodson Place! The last
two neighborhood roads are open, and lot selection is still good.
You can still choose a special view of the wildlife pond, or perhaps
being adjacent to the woods, grand-daddy oaks shading your patio, or
sweeping prairie vistas. Two new green homes were recently
completed, and residents are getting settled in. Prairie grasses and
wildflowers are thriving in the wake of our habitat management
team’s controlled prairie burn last winter to enhance native
vegetation and wildlife foods. If you’re looking for a home in the
country for yourself and wildlife, this is a great time to schedule
an appointment for a private showing or to sign up to be notified of
public open house tours.
