Located about 2 miles outside Loop 1604 on Culebra Road/FM 471, Stillwater Ranch promises to be an incredible master planned community on the citys Northwest side. With homes by Wall Homes, Imagine Homes, and New Leaf Homes, the community boasts tennis courts, a basketball court, and a luscious pool in their amenity center. With the growth to our Northwest, this neighborhood will be a shining example of beautiful building styles combined with smart energy efficient and green building technology.
I recently visited the Imagine Homes model and it is incredible. The Lilac model from Imagine homes, this model is perfectly appointed to showcase the gorgeous design dreamt up by Imagine Homes including rock and wood details throughout the home, a wrought iron and wood staircase, a media room, an amazing cooks kitchen, and much more.
If you visit the model, be sure to check out the attic. Using spray foam insulation on the roofing, the temperature in the attic is comfortable. You know how hot your attic gets, imagine being able to work in there and store your Christmas decorations without worrying what was going to melt (it was 100 outside when I went in the house).
