127 Scott Felder Homes ‘move in’ Plano’s Legacy West

​​PLANO – Scott Felder Homes has tied up land for eight Dallas-Fort Worth developments with more than 500 houses.

The builder will start construction soon on a 127-home project in Plano’s $2 billion Legacy West development.

The two- and three-story detached high-density contemporary houses will occupy a site between Toyota Motor and Liberty Mutual Insurance’s new Plano campuses.

The neighborhood is being built on a triangular piece of property between J.C. Penney’s headquarters and the new Legacy West urban village, which has retail, restaurants, apartments and office space.

The 2,000- to 3,000-sf houses will start around $500,000.

Along with the Legacy West project, Felder Homes has purchased building locations in Highland Village, Celina, Prosper and Frisco. The company is starting houses in eight traditional single-family neighborhoods.

The Austin company was recently honored as the 2015 Volume Builder of the Year by the Texas Association of Home Builders.
