Elyson Commons opens in March

Posted

Master-planned communities like Cinco Ranch, Firethorne, Grand Lakes, Cane Island and Cross Creek Ranch help drive Katy’s success. These communities promised and delivered great schools, shopping, and amenities to our community. Among the next heirs to the master-planned community crown appears to be the emerging and stylish community of Elyson.

Located just west of Grand Park-way on FM 529, Elyson boasts 1,900 homes with plans for over 4,000 more. Featuring Katy ISD schools, this community is positioned for long-term success. The community reserved 500 acres for future shop-ping, entertainment and professional partners. Elyson’s Marketing Director Heather Gustafson prom-ised to announce new shopping soon. Target started construction on its newest retail and grocery prototype designed for the modern shopper at the entrance to Elyson.

Still, the community’s first focus remains offering its residents luxury amenities and incredible family networking opportunities. Ameni-ties include Elyson House, a Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired community center. The prairie styled structure has a fitness center, game room, meeting room and the Elyson Café, which opens for lunch and dinner every day.

Other features include almost 30 miles of trails (planned), 750 acres of amenities, lakes and open space, a year-round resort style pool, tennis and more. The community’s Event Lawn recently featured the dog-themed Tails and Ales Event – along with other fun events like movie nights, concerts and more.

The upcoming Elyson Commons promises 145 acres of wildflower trails, a basketball court and play-ground. It also promises an outdoor fitness training park, picnic areas with BBQ grills, a pooch play-ground and more.

A full-time Elyson lifestyle director plans events for kids, families and adult-only events to ensure everyone feels welcome.

The Elyson Commons grand opening is March 5. The public is invited to attend. Marketing Manager Nancy Hyde and her team assembled a builder roster including Perry Homes, Lennar, Chesmar, Pulte, Westin, Highland, Taylor Morrison and Beazer. Additionally, a city center style neighborhood will be opening soon.

Elyson’s development team oversaw development in Cinco Ranch. They understand how to build and maintain strong communities. Each team member promises to deliver homeowners fantastic homes, amenities and great lifestyle opportunities.
