The Signorelli Company, one of Texas’ largest privately held real estate development companies, announced on May 28 the start of home sales at Bluestem, a 356-acre master-planned community in Waller County. Prospective buyers are invited to view the first model homes from nationally acclaimed Castlerock and First America Homes. Legend Homes plans to open their new model this summer. Each home builder offers a diverse selection of floor plans and home designs, with prices starting in the mid-$200s.

Located in Brookshire near the intersection of FM 365 and FM 529, about 20 minutes northwest of Katy, this development is expected to accommodate 1,300 single-family homes, with phase one including 40- 45- and 50-foot homesites. Named for local prairie grasses, Bluestem is surrounded by acres of preserved green space, including miles of sidewalks connecting neighbors with pocket parks every quarter of a mile and plans for a playground and covered pavilion.

“Waller County is a desired destination because of its blend of privacy and accessibility, which prompted us to create Bluestem,” said Jeff Dewese, senior vice president of land division for The Signorelli Company. “Not only does this community offer a serene environment to escape the frenzy of everyday life, but it also has great amenities and access to excellent schools. We’re excited to be a part of Waller County and look forward to welcoming families to Bluestem, where the wonders of nature are just outside your door.”

Homebuilders CastleRock, First America Homes and Legend Homes each offer eight or more floor plans at Bluestem. CastleRock homes range in size from 1,300 to 2,500 square feet, with two to four bedrooms and design elements such as nine-foot ceilings, island kitchens, luxury master bathrooms, game rooms, and covered patios. Prices start from the $239,000s to the $346,000s.

“We’re thrilled to be a part of this beautiful masterplan in Waller County,” said Derrick Carlson, Vice President of Sales for First America Homes. “The local area provides a small town charm while still being able to get to top-notch conveniences within a few minutes. This Grand Opening is an excellent opportunity for potential homebuyers to see the amazing homes we have planned for Bluestem and experience what life could be like in a First America community.”
