David Weekley Hollyhock, FriscoDavid Weekley Homes in Hollyhock, Frisco offers new home buyers a brand new floorplan concept that is sure to be a hit. From the outside, the "Northington Plan" looks typical, but once you take the full tour, you quickly realize how unique and untypical this space efficient floorplan is. 

For example, the Master Suite is large and open via cool interior windows that offer expansive views to the outdoor living area. Then there is the detached living area/flex room in the back of the home (easily missed if you're going too fast!), that offers a private second game room, or special flex space that is not connected to the main floorplan from the inside, but is under the same roof. A great room to have if you're needing some quiet time or solitude or need a

Location and Price Choices When Selecting a Plano Area Home

Well, you do have choices. You can find a home close-in to work in Plano and local hot spots and find an older fixer-upper (nearly all homes are going to be fixer-uppers), or in rare events even find a new and close home, but at a price premium.
