Your Expert on Living in Landmark by Hillwood, Theresa De La Rosa.

Living in Landmark means getting in near the very beginning of Denton's first master-planned development. This early-phase community is just getting going, newer and less built out than neighbors like Pecan Square and Harvest, and that early position is exactly what draws many buyers: a 3,200-acre master plan, approximately 6,000 homes, nine Phase 1 builders, Denton's first H-E-B, a full commercial district, and 1,100 acres of parks and trails taking shape over the next several decades. I help buyers navigate every option from day one.

About Landmark by Hillwood

What it's like living in Landmark,
an early-phase community.

Landmark by Hillwood is a 3,200-acre master-planned community in southwest Denton, Texas, at the intersection of I-35W and Robson Ranch Road. Developed by Hillwood Communities, Landmark is officially designated as Denton's first master-planned development.

At full buildout over a roughly 40-year timeline, Landmark will include approximately 6,000 single-family homes, about 3,000 multifamily residences, approximately 5 million square feet of mixed-use commercial space, three planned on-site Denton ISD schools, Denton's first H-E-B grocery store, and 1,100 acres of parks, trails, and conserved nature.

Phase 1 features approximately 747 single-family lots with pricing from the high $300,000s to $1M+, depending on builder and product type. Nine national and regional builders offer a range of home styles, floor plans, and price points. Model homes began opening in 2026. Prices, incentives, inventory, and homesite availability are subject to change.

Developed by Hillwood Communities, Landmark carries a proven approach to master-planned community design at a larger scale. For comparison, Canyon Falls was developed by Newland/Wheelock, not Hillwood. This is the defining new community for Denton.

Scale
City-Within-a-City Design

Not just a subdivision.
A complete community.

Most master-planned communities offer homes, a pool, and some trails. Landmark is designed to be something fundamentally different: a self-sustaining, mixed-use community with its own commercial district, its own grocery anchor, planned on-site schools, and the density and infrastructure to support a full lifestyle ecosystem.

With approximately 6,000 single-family homes, about 3,000 multifamily residences, approximately 5 million square feet of mixed-use commercial space, three planned on-site Denton ISD schools, and Denton's first H-E-B, Landmark is being built to function as a complete community: a place to live, shop, eat, learn, and connect.

To put the scale in perspective: Landmark's 3,200 acres make it roughly three times the size of Pecan Square and nearly three times the size of Harvest. While those communities offer a curated village-center and agrihood lifestyle respectively, Landmark is being built at a scale that includes its own commercial core, thousands of apartments, and schools at every level. The long-term buildout spans roughly 40 years.

Major Commercial District

Unlike typical master-planned communities that rely on nearby retail, Landmark is building its own commercial core, with approximately 5 million square feet of mixed-use space including shopping, dining, and entertainment integrated into the community plan.

H-E-B as Anchor Tenant

Denton's first H-E-B grocery store is planned to anchor a 45-acre retail corner within Landmark's commercial district, providing a grocery anchor and everyday convenience. Currently targeted to open in early 2027. Plans are subject to change.

Mixed-Use Design

With approximately 6,000 single-family homes, about 3,000 multifamily units, three planned on-site Denton ISD schools, and a full commercial district, Landmark is designed to function as a self-sustaining community.

Built-In Community Density

The combination of single-family, multifamily, commercial, and planned educational infrastructure creates the critical mass needed for a vibrant, walkable community.

Amenities
What Landmark Offers

A complete lifestyle
designed in phases.

Planned at Full Buildout

1,100 Acres of Parks & Green Space

One-third of the community is dedicated to preserved parks, trails, and conserved nature. At full buildout, Landmark will feature 1,100 acres of open space with multiple community parks, 35 miles of paved and rugged trails, and a 300-acre park and entertainment district.

Opening Late 2026

Timberview Hilltop Amenity Center

Landmark's first major amenity center, perched on a hilltop with a resort-style infinity pool, glass-walled clubhouse community hall, outdoor amphitheater, event lawn, and S.T.E.A.M. learning parks. Multiple additional amenity centers and pools are planned for later phases.

Opening Late 2026

Resort-Style Pools

The Timberview amenity center features a resort-style infinity pool. Additional pools and aquatic features are planned for future amenity centers as the community builds out.

Planned at Full Buildout

Extensive Trail Network

More than 35 miles of interconnected paved and rugged hiking and biking trails linking neighborhoods to parks, green spaces, and community gathering points throughout the development.

Planned at Full Buildout

Retail, Dining & Entertainment

A major commercial district is planned within the community featuring retail shops, restaurants, and entertainment across approximately 5 million square feet of mixed-use space. The entertainment district will host live music and events.

Planned, Opening Early 2027

Denton's First H-E-B

An H-E-B grocery store, the first in Denton, will anchor a 45-acre retail corner within Landmark commercial district, providing a grocery anchor and everyday convenience. Plans and timelines are subject to change.

Planned, Future Bond Elections

On-Site Denton ISD Schools

Landmark's master plan includes land set aside for three on-site Denton ISD schools: two elementary schools and one middle school. School construction depends on future bond elections. Buyers should verify current attendance boundaries directly with Denton ISD.

Planned at Full Buildout

3,000 Multifamily Units

In addition to approximately 6,000 single-family homes, Landmark includes about 3,000 apartment units planned for full buildout, creating a mixed-density character.


Commercial
Retail, Dining & H-E-B

Denton's first H-E-B
anchors the community.

One of Landmark's most significant features is its planned commercial district: a major retail, dining, and entertainment hub built directly into the community. At the center of it all is Denton's first H-E-B grocery store.

H-E-B is consistently ranked among the most highly rated grocery retailers in Texas. Its presence within the community provides a grocery anchor and everyday convenience within Landmark's future commercial district. The store is currently planned to anchor a 45-acre retail corner with a targeted opening in early 2027. Plans and timelines are subject to change.

Beyond H-E-B, Landmark's commercial plan includes approximately 5 million square feet of mixed-use space with retail shops, restaurants, and entertainment options designed to serve the community's 6,000+ homes and 3,000 multifamily units. Where other North Texas master-planned communities like Pecan Square offer a curated village center and Harvest brings a farmstead retail concept, Landmark is being built with a commercial core on an entirely different scale.

Vision
Built for the Long Term

A vision that goes
beyond a subdivision.

Pecan Square introduced Hillwood's village-center model and won national recognition for it. Harvest created a distinctive agrihood concept that drew national attention. Canyon Falls leveraged dramatic natural terrain into a highly visual community. Each of these communities has shaped master-planned living in the region. Landmark by Hillwood is the next chapter, developed on Hillwood's proven track record of master-planned development in Denton County.

For buyers, the Hillwood name signals quality master-planning, long-term infrastructure investment, and a developer with a track record of delivering on ambitious community visions. That reputation, combined with Landmark's scale, Denton's first H-E-B, and a 40-year buildout horizon, makes it a significant new option in Denton County.

~40-Year Buildout Timeline

With an estimated 40-year buildout, Landmark will evolve over decades. Buyers considering Phase 1 should weigh factors including lot selection, builder competition, future development phases, construction activity, planned amenities, and infrastructure buildout over time.

6,000+ Single-Family Homes

At full buildout, Landmark will include approximately 6,000 single-family homes on its 3,200-acre master plan.

Three Planned Denton ISD Schools

Landmark's master plan includes land for three on-site Denton ISD schools: two elementary schools and one middle school. School construction is subject to future bond elections. Verify current attendance boundaries directly with Denton ISD.

1,100 Acres of Green Space

With 1,100 acres dedicated to parks, trails, and conserved nature, Landmark preserves roughly one-third of the community as open space, including a 300-acre park and entertainment district planned for full buildout.

My Expertise

Here's what I bring to your Landmark search.

Builder experience across Landmark's builder roster. I've worked with many of the builders now selling in Landmark across other North Texas communities, including Pecan Square, Harvest, and Canyon Falls. That experience helps me compare floor plans, homesites, builder processes, incentives, upgrade structures, and contract considerations while verifying current terms for each buyer.

New construction expertise. From builder contracts and upgrade selections to community comparisons, I help buyers navigate the new construction process. As your agent, I represent your interests, not the builder's.

Denton market knowledge. I know the Denton market intimately: the schools, corridors, growth patterns, and communities. That context is critical when evaluating where to buy in a development of this scale.

Relocation and out-of-state buyers. Many Landmark buyers are relocating from out of state or from other parts of DFW. I regularly help relocation buyers navigate the process remotely, from virtual tours and builder comparisons to lot selection and closing coordination. Before you tour, the moving-to-Denton relocation guide covers city limits versus mailing addresses, Denton ISD school assignments, taxes, and the broader Denton housing picture.

18+ years as a Broker. As a Real Estate Broker, I bring market knowledge, negotiation strategy, and transaction oversight, and I help clients understand transaction procedures, builder timelines, business terms and practical considerations within my brokerage role. Builder contracts are legally binding, and clients should consult a qualified real estate attorney when they need legal interpretation or advice. That level of guidance is valuable when buying new construction at this scale.

Which school district serves Landmark?

Landmark is served by Denton ISD. The master plan includes land set aside for three on-site schools: two elementary schools and one middle school. School construction depends on future bond elections. School attendance boundaries, feeder patterns and ratings can change. Buyers should verify current assignments for the specific property directly with the applicable school district before making a purchase decision.

Will Landmark have an H-E-B?

Denton's first H-E-B grocery store is planned to anchor a 45-acre retail corner within Landmark's commercial district, currently targeted to open in early 2027. Plans and timelines are subject to change.

Why buy in Phase 1 of Landmark?

Phase 1 buyers benefit from the widest selection of homesites and floor plans. Tradeoffs include ongoing construction activity, amenities that roll out in phases, and a community buildout expected to span approximately 40 years. It's important to evaluate both advantages and tradeoffs when deciding whether early entry aligns with your timeline.

Should I use a real estate agent for new construction at Landmark?

Yes. The builder's sales representative works for the builder, not for you. As your agent, I help you understand transaction procedures, builder timelines, business terms and practical considerations within my brokerage role, and I help you evaluate lots and floor plans and make informed decisions. Builder contracts are legally binding, and clients should consult a qualified real estate attorney when they need legal interpretation or advice. Builder policies regarding buyer-agent compensation vary, so representation and compensation should be discussed before visiting or registering with a builder.

How does Landmark compare to Pecan Square or Harvest?

All three are Hillwood master-planned communities. Landmark is significantly larger at 3,200 acres with a full commercial district, approximately 5 million square feet of mixed-use space, 3,000 multifamily units, Denton's first H-E-B, and three planned on-site Denton ISD schools. I can help you compare all three based on your priorities.

How long will it take Landmark to build out?

Landmark has an estimated 40-year buildout timeline. This is a generational development that will evolve over decades. Buyers entering in Phase 1 should consider the full timeline and how it fits their plans.

Can I relocate to Denton and buy at Landmark without making multiple trips?

Yes. I regularly help out-of-state and relocation buyers navigate the Landmark process remotely, from virtual tours and builder comparisons to lot selection and closing coordination.




Selling

Selling in Landmark

Selling in Landmark means selling some of the earliest homes in a very new community. Landmark is in its first phase, with most of the buildout still ahead, so early sellers have few comparable sales to lean on, and buyers will weigh your home against the new construction still coming online around it. I help sellers price against what is actually happening in the market today, position their home to compete with builder inventory, and protect the equity they have built so far.

  • Strategic, data-driven pricing grounded in current market activity and the early comparable sales available in Landmark.
  • Positioning and marketing that help your home stand out to buyers who are also looking at new construction.
  • Data-driven negotiation on every offer, backed by Broker-level contract knowledge and transaction oversight.
