Frisco Lake is a Del Webb retirement community and is situated in
Frisco, Texas, a suburb of Dallas. The development sits on
1,000 acres and will eventually have 3,000 single family homes
nestled along Lake Lewisville, a popular recreation spot. Many
residences will have lake views or golf course views.
Frisco is an upscale suburb so the fact that Frisco Lake's home
prices begin at around $160,000 is an drawing card for many retirees
seeking affordable housing in a community with outstanding
amenities, including a large clubhouse with a fitness center, an
indoor and outdoor pool, a ballroom, a library and more.
Homes have 2 to 3 bedrooms, 2 to 2.5 baths and attached 2-car
garages; home sizes range from 1,445 sq. ft. to 2,850 sq. ft. with
brick exteriors and asphalt roofs.
There is an 18-hole golf
course, more than 600
acres of open space and bicycling paths meandering throughout the community.
The
Mansions in the Forest
Those
seeking condominiums for lease rather than for sale may want to
check out The Mansions in the Forest, an age-restricted community
north of Houston in the Piney Woods Region of east Texas.
There are
seven floor plans from which to choose, including studios and one
bedrooms and two bedrooms, with square footage ranging from 440 to
1,530; leases are for 7, 13 or 26 months. All units are on one
story, have kitchens and some have patios. The inside hallways
are bright, and a private elevator accesses all units. There
are 9-ft ceilings, full-sized washer and dryers in the
residences and 24-hr. monitored security.
Residents
also enjoy a clubhouse with a beauty salon, basketball court,
ballroom, fitness room and a sauna. Complimentary meals are
provided two times a month, and meals in the clubhouse are between
$5 and $9 each.
The
Mansions is located in Conroe, a forested area with rolling
hills. A large, wooded state forest sits next to the
community, providing a great spot for hiking, camping and bicycling.
