Living Large in DFW with Upscale Townhome Amenities

“A home is more than just where you live; it reflects who you are.” — Ty Pennington (TV Host and Home Makeover Guru)

Imagine: Unwinding in a poolside cabana after a long week at work. Taking your dog for a walk through miles of nature trails. Meeting your neighbors at a fall harvest party planned by an enthusiastic lifestyle director (with no prep or clean up for you!). Teaching your kids tennis or joining a pick-up basketball game on one of the courts. 

These memory-making opportunities — and more! — are yours when you buy a new CB JENI townhome in one of the most desirable areas of Dallas-Fort Worth, including Frisco, Arlington, McKinney, Celina, North Richland Hills, and many other highly sought-after surrounding cities.

Townhome communities have come a long way over the past two decades. No longer “elevated apartments,” townhomes today boast modern exteriors with designer-inspired interiors in neighborhoods brimming with amenities, activities, and beauty. Today’s upscale communities redefine townhome living.

From bustling suburban vibes to relaxed nature-inspired settings, you’re sure to find a townhome community that fits your lifestyle. CB JENI, an expert townhome builder who builds exclusively in DFW, offers new homes in some of the most unique, reimagined neighborhoods in the area. You can afford to live large in a CB JENI townhome. Enjoy a lock-and-leave lifestyle and take advantage of the exciting opportunities in a neighborhood you love.

Harvest in Argyle

What’s new in the “agrihood?” With a nod to the agricultural history of the land, Harvest is a bustling community centered around a working commercial farm. You can grow your own fresh produce and get educated at farm programs for kids and adults alike. But don’t let the down-home charm fool you — the community also includes modern buildings and spaces for events, a coffee house, and a fitness center. 

Gather at the open-air Front Porch for concerts or around the fire pits. Two resort-style pools beckon you in the summer. Catch-and-release Harvest Lake and miles of hiking and biking trails help promote relaxation and healthy living. With an award-winning lifestyle program, it’s no wonder this community was named 2022 Master-Planned Community of the Year and the People’s Choice Community of the Year by the Dallas Builders Association.

Imagine walking out onto your balcony with exclusive water views in North Texas. That’s what you could find in a three-story townhome at Viridian Island in Arlington!

The Viridian Lake Club is unmatched and a focal point where neighbors love to gather. It includes a 6-acre peninsula overlooking Lake Viridian, five pools, a pavilion, and a small amphitheater.

From House to Home

As one of the fastest-growing areas of the country, people are flocking to the Dallas metro area. They attribute the cost of living, pace of life, great schools, and job opportunities as reasons for relocating. What keeps people in an area, however, is making connections that change the mindset from “house” to “home.”

Becoming a homeowner brings a sense of pride and freedom. Today’s housing market and interest rates may have you looking for a more affordable option to make your homeownership dreams a reality. In a townhome, you can start building equity without the fear of rent increases.

The benefits of a lock-and-leave lifestyle are undeniable: more time to pursue hobbies and connections, plus the freedom to travel without worrying about outdoor maintenance. Apartment living means frequent turnover, but in a townhome you’ll find security in living alongside neighbors who are invested in each other’s well-being and maintaining property values. And no worries about hearing your neighbors — CB JENI townhomes include double-insulated walls and a shaft liner that provides noise resistance and additional fire safety protection.
In a townhome, you’ll experience the best of both worlds: homeownership and life-giving activities right outside your doorstep. Pick the community that appeals to you and call for an appointment today!
