Taylor Morrison Spreading Wings in New Section of Eagle Springs in Northeast Houston

    HOUSTON, TX, September 24, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Taylor Morrison is spreading its wings in northeast Houston for the second time this year with the purchase of 22 70-ft. home sites in a newly developed section of Eagle Springs, one Houston's best performing master-planned communities in 2011. The lots were purchased from Newland Communities who also developes nearby Summerwood.

At Eagle Springs, Taylor Morrison is offering the Premiere Series priced from the $300,000s. The Premiere Series includes nine one- and two-story plans with 3,219 to 4,281 square feet. The Riviera model, a two story with six bedrooms, 3.5 baths and a three-car garage, is just getting underway.

Amy Haywood-Rino, vice president of sales & marketing for the Houston division, said the "Premiere Series was designed for families with growing teenage children; a consumer group we call Teen Builders. Priorities with these home buyers include private bedrooms and baths, recreation rooms, home theatres, and home amenities. Our Interactive Home package is a big hit with teens. Plus, when it comes to recreational amenities Eagle Springs has everything you'd want."

Taylor Morrison includes an Interactive Home package in all homes in the Houston area. The package includes a front door monitoring camera, intercom, messaging and home audio--all accessible via a home interface panel, smart phones and tablets. Custom features can be added at an additional cost.

Eagle Springs offers residents outstanding amenities, including a resort-style recreation complex, lush parks, soccer fields, and access to Lake Houston in a wooded setting. The community has quick access to U.S. 59, Beltway 8 and I-45 and scores of employment centers including Downtown Houston, Port of Houston, Greenspoint and Bush International Airport.

Eagle Springs is located in the Humble Independent School District. Eagle Spring Elementary is located within the community. Older students attend Timberwood Middle School and Atascocita High School. "The most important factor for parents of teens is the quality of the schools. That's why we're building this series here," said Haywood-Rino. "There's quality and value all round."

Taylor Morrison is currently building homes priced from the $100,000 to over $1 million in 21 locations in the Houston area.
