Lakehaven
Farmersville’s one master-planned community, minutes from Lavon Lake
Lakehaven is the dominant new-construction community in Farmersville, a master-planned neighborhood near the shores of Lavon Lake built jointly by Meritage Homes and Trophy Signature Homes. Marketing materials describe roughly 1,800 planned lots across several home series, from smaller Spring/Musician plans to larger Premier and Trophy homes. Say it plainly: Lakehaven accounts for the majority of recent new-home activity in town, so Farmersville’s new-home market is substantially this one subdivision right now. It sits just off SH-78, south of US-380, on the far northeastern edge of the metroplex.
Price Range
Roughly $230K–$500K across builders and series, per published builder base prices (Trophy Signature from the low $230s, Meritage Signature/Premier into the low $500s). New-build base prices move with releases and incentives - ask Mali for current lot-and-plan pricing and comps.

Check these before you offer
The trade-offs a listing will not mention. None of these are reasons not to buy here; they are the things worth pricing in.
- There is no freeway and no rail. US-380 and SH-78 are surface highways and this is the far northeastern edge of the metroplex, so drive the commute at 7:30am before you commit.
- It is actively building out, so construction traffic is ongoing and the marketed amenities arrive by phase. Confirm what is actually open today rather than what is drawn.
- Farmersville's new-home market is substantially this one subdivision, which means your resale competition is largely the builders still selling new homes with incentives.
- Ask about any MUD or PID assessment on the specific lot. These are common in new North Texas masterplans, sit outside the list price and are not reduced by a homestead exemption.
- Farmersville ISD is a small four-campus district. That scale is the appeal for many buyers and a genuine limit on program breadth for others.
- Builder base prices are not market medians, and the community is too new to have a meaningful resale history to price against.
