Four Green Subdivisions Planned For The Area

Posted on November 26, 2007

Four subdivisions that are environmentally friendly are being planned in the greater Austin area by Green Builders Inc. Georgetown Village will offer homes from 1,800 square feet to 2,400 square feet in Georgetown. Several models are near completion. The homes, to be built in the next six to eight years, will be priced from the low $200,000s to the $500,000s. The second project is Rutherford West in Driftwood. Rutherford West will be an 800-acre community, with 400 acres set aside as a conservation area. The development, which will take two to four years to complete, will have homes from the mid-$300,000s to more than $600,000. The 1.5-acre lots will be sold separately, with half going to the conservation easement. The model home is now under construction. In Buda, a green subdivision, called Elm Grove, will have 320 green homes priced from the low $200,000s to the low $300,000s. The remaining green subdivision is set to be built on 530 acres in Pflugerville. New Sweden Community, which has not broken ground, will add 1,600 homes to the Pflugerville community. The project, which is expected to take six to eight years to complete, will have organic farming, a community garden and a catfish pond. The organic farming will be cared for by tenants; the community garden will be tended by the homeowners association.
