Best Luxury New Construction Communities Near Argyle and North Fort Worth

Five communities define the luxury new construction market along the Argyle and North Fort Worth corridor right now: Harvest, Canyon Falls, Furst Ranch, Pecan Square, and Wellington. Each targets a different buyer profile, ranging from agrihood lifestyle enthusiasts and trail-focused outdoor buyers to early-phase opportunists and buyers for whom Argyle ISD zoning is non-negotiable. Here is a community-by-community breakdown of what each delivers, who it suits best, and how to choose between them.

For broader context across the full corridor, the luxury communities guide for Argyle, Flower Mound, Keller, and Fort Worth covers how these neighborhoods compare at a market level.

Harvest by Hillwood: Argyle's Agrihood Flagship Community

Harvest is the community that set the template others in this corridor are still working to match. Spread across approximately 1,200 acres straddling Argyle and Northlake along I-35W and FM 407, it is one of North Texas's most established master-planned "agrihood" communities, built around the idea that neighborhoods should feel connected to the land, not just built on top of it.

The amenity package at Harvest is broad: a working community farm and garden plots, a historic yellow farmhouse building that served as the community's original gathering landmark for nearly a decade (the structure itself remains a community icon, though Farmhouse Coffee & Treasures vacated the space in July 2026), a fishing lake stocked with crappie and bass, the Fit Barn fitness facility with a lap pool and volleyball court, a 1.5-mile Central Park greenspace, and a full calendar of resident programming coordinated by a dedicated Lifestyle Director.

Lot widths run from 31 feet for townhome-style products all the way to estate homesites of one to three acres. That range translates to a wide price span, from the entry level of the luxury tier up through custom builds well into the seven-figure range. Buyers should clarify which builder and lot collection matches their budget before visiting, as the experience varies considerably depending on which section of the community you are exploring.

On the builder side, Harvest partners with a curated roster of premier DFW builders, including:

• Drees Custom Homes
• Toll Brothers
• Highland Homes
• David Weekley Homes
• Coventry Homes
• Tri Pointe Homes
• Taylor Morrison

School district zoning within Harvest is split, with sections served by Argyle ISD and others by Northwest ISD. Both are strong performers. Argyle ISD earned an overall 'A' accountability rating for the 2025–2026 school year, scoring 92 out of 100 and Cross Timbers Gazette (August 18, 2026). Northwest ISD scored 82 out of 100 for the same rating cycle, maintaining its 'B' standing. Both districts are well above the state average, and the difference primarily matters to buyers for whom top-decile district performance is a threshold requirement.

Best for: Buyers who want maximum lifestyle programming, a wide range of lot sizes, and the flexibility to find both mid-luxury and high-end custom products within a single community.

Canyon Falls: Nature-Forward Living on the Argyle-Flower Mound Edge

Canyon Falls occupies a scenic stretch at the intersection of US 377 and I-35W, straddling FM 1171 across parts of Flower Mound, Northlake, and Argyle. Its defining feature is the Graham Branch Creek Preserve running through the heart of the development, which anchors more than 14 miles of trails in total, including over 11 miles of paved paths and approximately 3 miles of natural-surface routes through the Graham Branch Creek corridor.

The community's amenity package includes resort-style pools, a splash pad, a fitness center, a historic hay barn used as an event venue, and a dog park. Roanoke's dining scene, designated the Unique Dining Capital of Texas by the state legislature, is a short drive away, and a range of retail options along FM 1171 are easily accessible.

Builder options at Canyon Falls include:

• Drees Custom Homes
• Belclaire Homes
• Chesmar Homes
• Coventry Homes
• American Legend Homes
• Windmiller Homes

Homes at the upper end of the market in Canyon Falls have been listed well above $1 million, particularly in the custom-home sections that remain available as the community matures. Like Harvest, Canyon Falls zoning is split between Argyle ISD and Northwest ISD depending on the specific section.

One practical note: Canyon Falls has been developing for several years, which means the amenity infrastructure is fully in place and the community feels lived-in. Some builder sections are nearly sold out, while others, including some of the larger custom-home offerings, remain active. Buyers interested in Canyon Falls should move with some urgency on specific lots.

Best for: Buyers who prioritize outdoor lifestyle, trail access, and a mature community feel over the "brand new" energy of a first-phase development.

Furst Ranch: Flower Mound's Most Anticipated New Development

Furst Ranch is the newest major entry in this corridor and arguably the one generating the most attention among luxury buyers right now. Spanning approximately 2,300 acres at the intersection of FM 1171 and US 377 in western Flower Mound, it is one of the largest master-planned communities to launch in North Texas in this development cycle.

The community's design vision is described as "Modern Living on the Prairie with Rustic Charm," with three distinct curated neighborhoods each featuring a different builder lineup and architectural character. Luxury buyers have access to high-end builder options, with select collections targeting the upper tier of the market. Presales opened in January 2026 and the first phase broke ground in March 2026. In May 2025, the Flower Mound Town Council unanimously approved a parking exception for a 110,000-square-foot store at Furst Ranch, a potential H-E-B site that would give future residents walkable access to grocery within the community.

Furst Ranch is zoned entirely within Argyle ISD, a notable draw given the district's standing. The entire community feeds into the A-rated district, with no split-district ambiguity for any homesite.

Development is in its early phases as of late 2026, meaning buyers here are committing to a longer build-out vision rather than a finished neighborhood. That involves real trade-offs: more selection and opportunity to customize now, but amenities and the surrounding retail environment will take years to fully materialize. First move-ins are expected in 2027.

Best for: Buyers with an appetite for early-phase opportunity who want Argyle ISD zoning across the board and are drawn to the scale and long-term vision of Flower Mound's newest flagship development.

Pecan Square: An Award-Winning Small-Town Hub Near Argyle

Pecan Square, developed by Hillwood in Northlake, takes a distinct approach among its peers. The community is built around a central town square concept, with amenities clustering in a walkable hub rather than spreading across a large nature preserve. It won a People's Choice Community of the Year award in 2021 and has continued to expand since.

The amenity program at Pecan Square includes resort-style pools, a state-of-the-art fitness facility, a large indoor-outdoor event space, and an extensive lifestyle calendar. HOA-included high-speed internet and smart home technology at move-in are standard across all homes, features not universally offered by competing communities in this corridor.

In July 2025, Hillwood released 30 rare half-acre lots at Pecan Square, with homesites running 100 feet wide by 200 feet deep (minimum 20,000 square feet). These premium lots allow for larger custom home footprints, pools, outdoor kitchens, and putting greens while still enjoying the full community amenity package. The overall price range within Pecan Square runs from the mid-$400s to over $1 million, though the half-acre lots and the larger custom collections push meaningfully into luxury territory.

Pecan Square is served by Northwest ISD. The Johnie R. Daniel Elementary School sits on-site within the community, and Floyd Barksdale Middle School, located near Pecan Square in Northlake, opened in August 2026, adding a second campus directly serving this area's growing families.

Best for: Buyers who want a walkable, event-rich community lifestyle with a strong sense of neighborhood identity, on-site school access, and the option to go large with a premium half-acre homesite.

Wellington: Scaled Luxury Just North of Fort Worth

Wellington is a 615-acre master-planned community in Haslet, north of Fort Worth, offering a resort-style pool and amenity center, scenic pond views, and a multi-builder lineup serving a range of price points. Builder collections active within Wellington have been launching with starting prices in the mid-$500s for larger floor plans as of mid-2026, with some collections going higher.

Multiple respected DFW builders are active within Wellington, providing variety in architectural style and floor plan configuration. The community is served by Northwest ISD throughout.

Wellington's practical advantage is its location relative to North Fort Worth employment. It sits within reach of the AllianceTexas employment district and Fort Worth proper, with access to Highway 287 and I-35W. For buyers whose priorities are proximity to Fort Worth employment centers, a finished amenity package, and mid-to-upper price points rather than ultra-high-end custom, Wellington is a well-rounded option with genuine inventory depth.

Best for: Buyers oriented toward North Fort Worth and Haslet employment access who want a community with amenities already in place and a range of larger floor plans at mid-luxury price points.

How to Choose Between These Communities

A few questions worth settling before visiting model homes:

School District Priority

If Argyle ISD zoning is non-negotiable, Furst Ranch is the only community in this group where every section feeds into that district. Harvest and Canyon Falls are split between Argyle ISD and Northwest ISD depending on the specific lot, so buyers need to verify the zoning of any individual homesite before making commitments. Pecan Square and Wellington are within Northwest ISD throughout.

Community Stage and Timeline

Harvest and Canyon Falls are mature communities with full amenities in place and limited remaining inventory in some sections. Pecan Square is established and still expanding, with the half-acre lot release adding new premium options. Furst Ranch and Wellington are earlier in their build-out, which means more selection but a longer wait for the full surrounding infrastructure to develop.

Lifestyle Programming vs. Natural Landscape

Harvest and Pecan Square invest heavily in events, programming, and community energy. Canyon Falls prioritizes the outdoor environment, trails, and preserved natural landscape. Furst Ranch and Wellington offer more traditional neighborhood structures, with their full lifestyle programming still developing.

Lot Size and Customization Ceiling

Estate homesites, one-to-three-acre lots, and true custom-builder options are most accessible at Harvest and Furst Ranch. Pecan Square's July 2025 half-acre lot release is the most notable recent upgrade in this category. Keller, just south of this corridor, also attracts buyers seeking larger custom-lot opportunities in established settings.

FAQ

Which community near Argyle is best for families prioritizing Argyle ISD schools?

Furst Ranch in Flower Mound is the clearest choice if Argyle ISD zoning is the top priority. The entire community feeds into that district, with no section-by-section ambiguity. Harvest and Canyon Falls also have Argyle ISD-zoned sections, but both communities are split between Argyle ISD and Northwest ISD, so buyers must verify the district assignment of each specific lot. Argyle ISD earned an overall 'A' accountability rating for the 2025–2026 school year, scoring 92 out of 100, as reported by Cross Timbers Gazette on August 18, 2026.

Are there luxury new construction options near North Fort Worth for buyers who want a larger lot?

Yes. Harvest offers estate lots ranging from one to three acres at its upper product tiers, and Furst Ranch includes high-end builder collections with significant customization options across its three neighborhoods. Pecan Square released 30 half-acre premium lots in July 2025, which represent the largest available homesites within that community and accommodate pools, outdoor kitchens, and expanded home footprints. Wellington focuses more on larger floor plans than large lots, but provides solid square footage at mid-luxury price points.

What is the difference between Harvest and Pecan Square in Northlake?

Both are Hillwood developments, but they serve distinctly different lifestyle preferences. Harvest is built around an agrihood identity, with a working community farm, fishing lake, community gardens, and a programming calendar centered on connection to the land. Pecan Square centers on a walkable town square with a small-town Texas personality, on-site and nearby school access, and high-speed internet included in the HOA. Harvest skews toward buyers who want acreage and outdoor-lifestyle amenities; Pecan Square appeals to buyers who want walkability and a tight-knit neighborhood hub.

How do I evaluate which community's builder lineup is right for me?

The builder roster varies significantly by community and even by section within a community. Buyers who want a fully custom experience should focus on communities where custom builders are active, particularly in estate-homesite sections. Buyers prioritizing production-luxury consistency and faster delivery timelines may prefer the standardized collections from production builders active across multiple communities. A buyer's agent familiar with all of these communities can help identify which specific builder and section aligns with your floor plan preferences, finish level, and move-in timeline.

Is now a reasonable time to buy new construction in this corridor?

The Argyle and North Fort Worth corridor continues to see active development investment in 2026, with major projects like Furst Ranch breaking ground in March 2026, the July 2025 half-acre lot release at Pecan Square, and Wellington's ongoing builder activity reinforcing the market's depth. Early-phase developments offer the broadest selection and often better builder incentive structures.

Established communities like Harvest and Canyon Falls carry less inventory risk but fewer remaining choices. The right timing depends on your specific priorities; a local market snapshot can provide a clearer picture of current conditions before you begin builder visits.
