There’s no doubt about it — Westlake is on a fast track. Pulte Homes knows it, too.
In fact, Pulte is so convinced of the upsurge of interest and activity in Westlake that it has broken ground on its second multi-unit townhome community, Hope Pointe Place.
The company’s initial Westlake venture, Parkway Crossing, is proof of community interest. All of its units have been sold. Based on this highly successful formula, Hope Pointe Place’s design and amenities will mirror those of Parkway Crossing with differing color palettes and elevations.
“We’ll continue to feature a mix of shake and vinyl siding with brick or stone, but Hope Pointe Place units will feature more traditional colors, following the current design trends of highlighting black, white and brown,” says Paul Spenthoff, Pulte Division president.
The new 52-unit community will feature units with three bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths and two-car garages with bedrooms located on the second floor and the living area on first. Groundbreaking for the model home took place in December. That unit as well as the remaining four in the initial cluster should be available in March with the construction and opening of Building Two and Three happening between April and July.
Residents may select flooring, cabinets, bathroom fixtures, electrical, lighting and appliances after Phase One.
According to Spenthoff, Pulte is targeting young professionals, specifically those not in need of a yard; empty nesters who are “lock and leave” with seasonal second homes in Florida or South Carolina and others interested in enrolling students in the Westlake School System.
Because Westlake offers a plethora of amenities to its residents, Spenthoff contends there is no need for a lifestyle community. “Westlake and Crocker Park provide sufficient reasons for people to move here. The lifestyle is the city.”
