What is Enclave at Hickory Hill?
Enclave at Hickory Hill is a Toll Brothers luxury community in Argyle on one-acre homesites. It grand-opened February 19, 2026, and is actively selling homes from 3,100 to over 6,000 square feet with 4-5 bedrooms, starting around $1,198,995, in Argyle ISD.
Why Argyle Is Attracting Luxury Builders Now
The ingredients for Argyle's luxury construction activity have been building for several years. Argyle ISD holds an overall 'A' TEA accountability rating (score of 92 out of 100 as of the most recent 2026 ratings) and has received 23 consecutive 'A' financial ratings. The town offers proximity to I-35W for commuters heading to Fort Worth, AllianceTexas, or the broader DFW employment corridor. And the community retains rural character with rolling terrain, equestrian properties, and generous homesites that are less common in more densely developed suburbs to the south and east.
What changed in 2025 and 2026 is the scale of development. Furst Ranch, a 2,300-acre master-planned community at US 377 and FM 1171 (Cross Timbers Road), has multiple builders actively selling or preparing to open. Combined with Toll Brothers' Enclave at Hickory Hill on one-acre homesites, Argyle is now home to several luxury new construction options across different price points and lot configurations.
Furst Ranch: The 2,300-Acre Master-Planned Community Redefining Luxury in Argyle
The largest new construction story in Argyle is Furst Ranch, a 2,300-acre master-planned community located at the intersection of US 377 and FM 1171 (Cross Timbers Road). Originally assembled over decades by investor Jack Furst and developed by Hines, Furst Ranch was acquired in 2025 by Starwood Land (a joint venture between Starwood Capital Group and Land Strategies Management) as part of an approximately $800 million portfolio transaction. The community spans portions of Flower Mound, Bartonville, and Argyle, with an Argyle 76226 mailing address and Argyle ISD school assignments. For buyers who want to see how Furst Ranch compares with the rest of Flower Mound, the moving-to-Flower-Mound relocation guide covers neighborhoods, schools, taxes, lake access, and commutes across the town.
Furst Ranch is planned with three distinct neighborhoods:
- High Plains . Approximately 1,100 lots ranging from 50 to 80 feet wide. This is the first phase, where most builders are currently active.
- Prairie Vista . Approximately 200 lots ranging from 0.5 to 1 acre. Planned for later phases.
- Cross Timbers . Approximately 74 lots ranging from 1 to 2 acres. Expected to begin around 2028.
Seven homebuilders were announced for Furst Ranch, with several now actively selling. Below is the verified August 2026 status of each builder relevant to Argyle's luxury market.

Toll Brothers at Furst Ranch: Coming Soon
Toll Brothers at Furst Ranch was announced in February 2026 and, as of late August 2026, remains listed as a "Coming Soon / Future Community" on TollBrothers.com. Sales had been anticipated for summer 2026 but have not yet opened. This community should not be confused with Toll Brothers' other Argyle community, Enclave at Hickory Hill, which is actively selling on one-acre homesites.
Toll Brothers at Furst Ranch will offer two collections:
- The Grove Collection . 70-foot lots. Anticipated/current builder pricing from approximately $851,995.
- The Meadow Collection . 80-foot lots. Anticipated/current builder pricing from approximately $1,125,995.
Home sizes across both collections are anticipated at approximately 3,089 to 5,967+ square feet with Argyle ISD school assignments. Contact Toll Brothers at (855) 289-8656 for current availability and confirmed pricing as the community transitions from coming-soon to active sales.
Important note: Pricing shown is anticipated builder pricing as listed on TollBrothers.com and is subject to change. Verify current pricing directly with Toll Brothers before making any decisions.
Strategic note: Two Toll Brothers communities in the same geographic area give buyers a choice of product type within the same builder's portfolio. Enclave at Hickory Hill offers acreage and estate-scale homes currently selling from ~$1,198,995. Toll Brothers at Furst Ranch will offer a separate product line on 70- and 80-foot lots, likely at a different price point once sales begin. Buyers who prefer Toll Brothers quality can evaluate both options based on their lot preferences and budget.
Enclave at Hickory Hill: Toll Brothers on One-Acre Homesites
The most significant luxury opening in Argyle in 2026 is Enclave at Hickory Hill, a Toll Brothers community that grand-opened on February 19, 2026. Located at 11005 Neece Blvd in Argyle, this community is designed for buyers who want the space and privacy of one-acre homesites with Toll Brothers construction quality.
Enclave at Hickory Hill at a Glance, August 2026
For buyers accustomed to North Texas luxury, one-acre homesites inside a planned community with Toll Brothers construction are rare. Most luxury communities in the metroplex offer homes on 60-foot or 80-foot lots. The one-acre format at Enclave at Hickory Hill positions this community in the estate-scale market with the consistency, warranty, and builder accountability that comes with a national name.
Toll Brothers is currently offering a promotional 3.99% first-year rate (6.04% APR) with a 2/1 buydown program on select inventory. Verify current financing offers directly with Toll Brothers, as incentive programs change.
Custom Construction in the Greater Argyle Area
For buyers who want fully custom construction, Argyle's acreage properties attract custom builders who specialize in one-of-a-kind homes. Doug Parr Custom Homes has an active community in the broader area (Stardust Ranch in Northlake), with homes currently in closeout priced from approximately $1,339,900 to $1,500,000. Custom construction pricing in the greater Argyle area depends on land acquisition, square footage, specifications, site work, and finishes. Buyers considering a custom build should consult directly with builders about current pricing, lot availability, and construction timelines.
The availability of both production-luxury (Toll Brothers, Highland Homes, David Weekley, Tradition Homes at Furst Ranch) and custom options (acreage properties with custom builders) gives buyers in this market a wide spectrum of choices depending on their desired level of design involvement, timeline, and budget.
What $800K–$1M+ Buys in Argyle Compared to Other DFW Communities
For buyers evaluating luxury new construction across the DFW metroplex, Argyle offers a distinct combination of new-construction availability, lot sizes, development patterns, and location. Here is an objective comparison based on verified data:
Argyle vs. Comparable Markets: Key Differences
The value consideration in Argyle is not about one community ranking higher than another. It is about what the price includes at a given budget: lot size, new-construction availability, community character, current development stage, school district assignment, and commute profile. Each buyer weighs these factors differently, and the right choice depends on individual priorities.
Infrastructure and Community Development
Argyle's infrastructure is evolving to support growth. The Baylor Scott & White wellness campus at the Heritage development (southwest corner of I-35W and Robson Ranch Road) was approved by the Argyle Town Council in March 2025. Phase 1 includes 44,000 square feet of medical office space and 36,000 square feet of retail/wellness space, with construction expected to begin in 2026 and an opening targeted for 2027. A cardiovascular heart clinic opened separately at 151 FM 407 in early 2026. These facilities add healthcare options within Argyle, though residents may still travel to neighboring communities for certain specialized medical services. Separately, an H-E-B grocery-anchored retail center has been approved as part of the Heritage development.
Argyle ISD: 2026 Updates for New Construction Buyers
Argyle Independent School District holds an overall 'A' TEA accountability rating (score of 92 out of 100 in the most recent 2026 ratings) and has received 23 consecutive 'A' financial accountability ratings. For buyers considering new construction, there are several important developments:
- Scott Gibson Middle School (grades 7-8) opened for the 2026-27 school year at FM 407.
- The current Argyle Middle School is expected to transition to Argyle Legacy High School for the 2027-28 school year, serving as the district's second high school campus.
- Argyle ISD has secured land within Furst Ranch (approximately 35 acres along US 377, with an option for 15 additional acres) for future elementary and middle school facilities. However, specific campus construction timelines, grade configurations, and attendance zone assignments remain subject to district planning and have not been confirmed by Argyle ISD as of August 2026.
Because Argyle ISD changed attendance zone boundaries for the 2026-27 school year with the opening of Scott Gibson Middle School, buyers should use Argyle ISD official sources, not builder websites, to verify current school assignments for any specific homesite. School assignments can affect property desirability and should be confirmed before purchase.

How to Evaluate Luxury New Construction in Argyle: A Strategic Framework
Buying a luxury new construction home involves different considerations than a production-level purchase in the mid-price range. The price points are higher, the decisions more complex, and the range of variables wider. Here is the framework I use when helping buyers evaluate luxury new construction in Argyle:
1. Start with homesite selection, not the floor plan
In luxury new construction, the lot is often the most valuable asset. Orientation, views, privacy from neighbors, proximity to community amenities, and natural features such as mature trees or topography all affect livability and future desirability. A well-designed floor plan on a compromised lot may underperform relative to a simpler plan on a premium site. Compare lot premiums across builders and understand how positioning within the community affects your daily experience.
2. Compare builder and product quality at the specific price point
Not every builder delivers the same level of finish across all price tiers. Research each builder's portfolio at the price point you are considering. Visit completed homes of similar value, not just model homes. Review warranty responsiveness and construction quality from independent sources. Each builder in Argyle's luxury market (Toll Brothers, Highland Homes, David Weekley, Tradition, Drees) has a different approach to customization, standard inclusions, and design flexibility.
3. Understand base price versus final price
Base prices for new construction homes often do not include many features buyers expect at luxury price points. Lot premiums, structural options (outdoor kitchens, expanded primary suites, additional garage capacity, upgraded MEP systems), and design selections (finishes, fixtures, flooring, cabinetry) can materially increase the final purchase price. The total cost of the home as configured for your needs should be calculated before comparing communities. Lot premiums and design selections should be priced for the specific builder and home.
4. Evaluate financing incentives and compare total economics
Financing incentives such as rate buydowns, closing cost credits, design center allowances, and inventory pricing vary by builder, community, specific home, and sales period. Compare the total dollar value of an incentive against what it would cost to obtain the same benefit independently. Builder-affiliated lenders may offer incentives that come with conditions; compare Loan Estimates from the builder's preferred lender and your own lender, considering interest rate, APR, points, lender credits, closing costs, and total cash required.
5. Arrange independent inspections where the builder contract permits
For luxury new construction, independent third-party inspections at appropriate construction milestones can identify issues before closing. Possible inspection stages include pre-pour (foundation), pre-drywall (framing, plumbing, electrical, HVAC), and final walkthrough. However, inspection rights and timing depend on the specific builder contract and construction process. Not every builder permits every inspection stage. I help buyers understand inspection opportunities and coordinate with appropriately licensed inspectors where the builder contract allows.
6. Review builder documents and transaction structure with broker guidance
Builder purchase agreements are drafted by the builder's legal counsel and contain provisions regarding construction timelines, change order processes, deposits, deadlines, warranty limitations, and dispute resolution. I help buyers understand the transaction structure, builder documents, deposits, deadlines, incentives, construction milestones, inspections, and transaction considerations within the scope of brokerage services. When legal interpretation of builder documents is needed, I recommend qualified real estate legal counsel.
7. Consider property taxes, HOA assessments, and resale competition
Annual property taxes in Denton County and applicable HOA fees affect the true cost of ownership and should be factored into budget comparisons. Additionally, the volume of new construction in a community affects future resale competition. Communities with multiple active builders may have significant inventory at similar price points, which can influence how quickly a home sells when the time comes. Review tax rates, HOA documents, and understand the community's total planned buildout.

In Argyle's current market, approximately $800,000 to $1 million can buy new construction from Highland Homes on 60-ft lots (from ~$865,990), David Weekley Homes on 50-ft lots (from ~$663,990 up to ~$857,195 for larger plans), or Drees Custom Homes at Furst Ranch (anticipated from ~$877,900, subject to availability).

Lot size, square footage, and included features vary significantly by builder and community.
What should buyers compare when buying luxury new construction?
Luxury new construction buyers should compare: homesite selection (lot size, orientation, position within the community); builder and product quality at the specific price point; base price versus the total configured price including lot premiums, structural options, and design selections; financing incentives and total loan economics; builder contract terms (deposits, deadlines, change order process, warranty, dispute resolution); property taxes and HOA fees; school attendance zone assignments (current and future); construction timeline and delivery dates; and the volume of competing inventory in the same community. A buyer representation agreement before touring is recommended so your interests are represented throughout the process.
How do Argyle ISD zoning changes affect new construction?
Argyle ISD restructured attendance zones for the 2026-27 school year with the opening of Scott Gibson Middle School (grades 7-8). Some communities that previously fed into one set of schools may now have different assignments. Argyle ISD has secured land within Furst Ranch for future elementary and middle school facilities, but specific campus construction timelines and grade configurations are subject to district planning and have not been confirmed. Buyers should verify current school assignments through Argyle ISD official sources for any specific homesite, as builder websites may not reflect the most current zoning. Read the full guide on Argyle ISD attendance zone changes for details.
Should I use a Real Estate Broker when buying luxury new construction?
Having independent representation when buying new construction is important because the builder's on-site sales representatives represent the builder's interests, not yours. A Real Estate Broker helps buyers understand the transaction structure, builder documents, deposits, deadlines, incentives, construction milestones, inspections, and transaction considerations within the scope of brokerage services. Buyer-representation terms and compensation should be discussed and documented before touring or registering with a builder, because policies and compensation structures vary by builder and community. Under Texas law effective January 1, 2026, a written buyer representation agreement is generally required before touring residential property. When legal interpretation of builder documents is needed, I recommend qualified real estate legal counsel.
The Bottom Line
Argyle's luxury new construction market in 2026 offers buyers a wider range of options than ever before, driven primarily by the development of Furst Ranch and Toll Brothers' Enclave at Hickory Hill. Highland Homes, David Weekley Homes, Tradition Homes, and Drees Custom Homes are all active or preparing to open at Furst Ranch, with Toll Brothers' second community joining later. Custom construction is also available through builders serving the greater Argyle area.
Luxury new construction requires a strategic approach. Homesite selection, builder evaluation, total cost analysis, financing incentive comparison, and independent inspections all matter more when the price points are higher and the decisions involve multiple variables. Buyers and households who approach the process with clear priorities, current data, and an understanding of the specific tradeoffs between communities are best positioned to make confident decisions.
