AUSTIN, TEXAS (December 7, 2023) – Tri Pointe Homes®, a recognized homebuilder serving the Texas market for 50 years under the brand name Trendmaker Homes®, has announced the debut of its new homesites at Lariat, a 688-acre planned community located in the northwest Austin submarket of Liberty Hill, Texas. Delivering 339 single-family residences upon completion, Tri Pointe Homes is the first builder to start construction in the community. 

“With Austin poised to become the fastest-growing metro area by 20281, our new homes at Lariat are bringing much-needed inventory to a highly desirable pocket of the country,” said Bryan Havel, Division President of Tri Pointe Homes in Austin. “This is a dynamic, thriving market and Lariat solidifies our commitment to meeting the region’s evolving demand with personalized homes that cater to the needs of today’s homeowners. The community has the perfect blend of leading-edge design and scenic natural terrain, all while offering access to the abundance of opportunities that the Austin metro area provides.” 

With three modern Hill Country inspired home collections, Lariat exudes Southern hospitality and accommodates families of all sizes starting from the $300,000s. The Terrace Collection offers homes ranging from 1,603 to 2,588 square feet with 3 to 4 bedrooms, 2 to 3 bathrooms, and 2 bay garages.

The homes blend classic country and urban sophistication with state-of-the-art kitchens and open-concept floorplans. 

Tri Pointe Homes is dedicated to creating high-performance homes that not only encompass savvy design, but also offer cost and environmental savings for homeowners. Through its LivingSmart® program, Tri Pointe Homes incorporates the latest materials, technologies and features to create homes that are energy-efficient and designed for healthy living. The program consists of HealthSmart®, EnergySmart®, EarthSmart®, WaterSmart® and HomeSmart®, which span the entire design and development process from construction to ongoing home operation. 

The entire Lariat planned community is anticipated to ultimately consist of in excess of 1,600 lots. Upon completion, it is also expected to be complemented by a resort-style amenity and activity center, including a pool, an expansive playscape and splash pad, a covered pavilion, pocket parks, fish-stocked ponds, and a 7-mile trail system. Lariat is part of Liberty Hill’s highly ranked school district, and 12-acres has been dedicated as the site of a future school within the community. 

Positioned conveniently close to Highway 29, Lariat assures homeowners have easy reach to eateries and unique shops found in Liberty Hill’s historic downtown, while the nearby Liberty Hill Sculpture Park enriches the community’s artistic and cultural appeal. Additionally, Lariat is 25 miles from Apple Inc.’s billion-dollar Austin campus, 35 miles away from the vibrant heart of Downtown Austin, and The Longhorn Cavern and Pedernales Falls State Park make for easy day trips.
