General
Furst Ranch is being developed as a partnership between Jack Furst and Hines Interests, a Real Estate Development Company.
A mixture of uses including a wide range of residential housing types, commercial, office and specialty uses such as a hospital are planned for the development. The project is expected to take 15-20 years to be fully developed.
Approximately 2,100 acres comprises the Furst Ranch Development
All four quadrants of the intersection of US 377 & FM 1171 are within Furst Ranch. The majority of the property is in the northeast quadrant.
The majority of the property is located within the Flower Mound town boundaries (1,586 acres). Approximately 450 acres and 31 acres are currently within the Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) for Bartonville and Argyle respectively.
The development is within the Argyle Independent School District (AISD).
The current schedule is for TXDOT to begin construction on the widening and FM 1171 flyover in 2024.
PID stands for Public Improvement District. It is a public financing mechanism allowed by the State of Texas to pay for public improvements such as roads, water and sewer to serve the community. The property within the PID district pays an annual assessment to service the PID bonds.
Furst Ranch will be unique in the metroplex due to its size, location, and environmental features of the land. Great care is being taken to create a world class mixed-use development that respects the environmental features of the site. Development and design standards will ensure that what is constructed will honor the land and be state of the art. The connection to open space and nature will be a central element to Furst Ranch.
Lifestyle & Community
Furst Ranch is designed around a large central lake and will have numerous ponds located throughout the linear park that runs the length of the 2,100 acre ranch. Over 30% of the land (600 acres) is dedicated to open space that will include pools and clubhouses, a lazy river, nature parks, playgrounds, a boat dock, a boardwalk and over 20 miles of hiking and biking trails. Furst Ranch will be a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts.
A HOA will be established to maintain the common areas and recreational areas of the development.
We will seek commercial users from the outset to occupy Furst Ranch. As more homes are developed the demand will grow.
An existing fire station is located across US 377 from the site. Flower Mound police has personnel assigned specifically to patrol the western portion of the Town.
Biophilic design is a concept used to increase occupant connectivity to the natural environment through the use of direct nature, indirect nature, and space and place conditions.
Homes
There will be an estimated 2,600 – 2,800 single family detached homes within the Furst Ranch development. The majority of the single family detached neighborhoods are located north of the mixed use area located off of US 377 & FM 1171.
The single family detached homes lots will be 3,850 sq ft to 11,700 sq ft in size.
A wide variety of housing styles will be available in Furst Ranch including; Modern farmhouse, Prairie Craftsman, Texas Traditional Texas Hill Country, Texas Transitional, & Old-World styles.
The Furst Ranch is currently going through the approval process with the Town of Flower Mound, Upper Trinity, and TXDOT. The earliest that construction could begin would be the fall of 2021.
Age restricted homes are being planned for the development.
In addition to single family detached homes, the development is planned for townhome and multi-family units. The higher density units will be part of the mixed-use area located in the southern part of the development.
Schools
The development is within the Argyle Independent School District (AISD). AISD demographer estimates approximately 2,700 children will live in Furst Ranch at full build out. The impact to the school district on a yearly basis is estimated to be approximately 120 – 150 students per year.
Working with AISD, there are 3 elementary schools and 1 middle school sites locations planned within Furst Ranch. The new AISD High School is located just east of US 377 from the development.
Liberty Christian School is located adjacent to Furst Ranch on the northern boundary. Liberty Christian School offers student enrollment from preschool through grade 12.
