What is Brookview in Flower Mound?
Brookview is a roughly 240-acre community at the northwest corner of FM 1171 and Hwy 377 in west Flower Mound, developed by Green Brick Partners through its Green Brick Edgewood subsidiary. It was previously called La Estancia. The approved plan allows 713 houses, 477 townhomes, and 300 apartments, and Phase 1 covers 453 lots. Lots are releasing to builders in August 2026, with the first completed home expected in October 2026.

If you live anywhere near Canyon Falls, you have watched the dirt work at FM 1171 and Hwy 377 and wondered what is going in there.
It is Brookview. And unlike most of the projects people ask me about, this one finally has real dates attached. Lots go to builders this month. The first finished home is expected in October.
That moves Brookview out of the rumor column and into the decision column. If you are planning a move in the next six to twelve months, you now have an actual choice to make: wait for a brand-new community, buy a resale nearby, or go with one of the new-construction options already selling elsewhere in Flower Mound.
Here is what is approved, what buying into a first phase actually costs you, and how I would think about the timing.
What is actually approved at Brookview
The plan Town Council approved in May 2024 allows 713 single-family homes, 477 townhomes, and 300 apartments on the 264-acre tract. That is a 54% reduction in overall density from the original concept, which had called for 2,302 apartments, 400 townhomes, and 556 houses.
Worth knowing how it got here, because it explains the shape of the project. In 2021, the town received an application for a warehouse park on this land: ten buildings, more than 3.27 million square feet. Canyon Falls residents pushed back hard. In April 2022 the council rezoned the property and removed warehouses as a permitted use, the developer withdrew, and the property owner sued the town in federal court. The residential plan came out of the mediation that followed.
As part of that settlement, the town bought a 22-acre retail tract at the FM 1171 and Hwy 377 corner for $7.5 million, specifically to secure retail. Council member Ann Martin said at the time that residents in that part of town had been asking for amenities nearby, "in particular a grocery store." No grocer has been announced. Treat the retail as secured land, not a secured tenant.
Phase 1 is 453 lots: 313 single-family homes and 140 townhomes.
The infrastructure is moving too. In October 2025 the council and the TIRZ board approved a development agreement covering roughly $12.3 million in projects for Phases 1A and 1B, including sections of Stonecrest Road and Denton Creek Boulevard plus water and reuse lines. Green Brick is also building about $1.46 million in off-site improvements on the town's behalf: two additional lanes on Denton Creek Boulevard, turn lanes at Canyon Falls Drive, an 8-foot trail along Denton Creek Boulevard, and a 12-foot trail along FM 1171.
One tax point that matters, because west Flower Mound buyers are trained to ask it. That infrastructure is being reimbursed through impact fee credits and Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 2, which the town created in November 2023 over about 3,962 acres around FM 1171 and US 377. A TIRZ is not a MUD and it is not a PID. It redirects a share of the growth in property tax revenue that the existing taxing entities collect. It does not add a separate assessment to your bill the way a MUD does at Furst Ranch, or the way the Northlake side of Canyon Falls carries one. That said, get the MUD and PID notice in writing before you sign anything. The disclosure is the only version of that answer that binds anybody.
What buying into a first phase actually means
This is the part builders do not lead with, and it is where I spend most of my time with clients looking at brand-new communities.
Your move-in date depends on the town, not just the builder. Flower Mound allows what it calls early release lots, meaning builders can start vertical construction once the sewer line is in, before the subdivision is formally accepted. Assistant Town Manager Tommy Dalton explained the logic plainly: even though lots deliver in August, "the house is already halfway or three-quarters of the way built, so it brings that home to market sooner." The catch is that nobody can occupy a home until the town accepts the subdivision. So when a builder gives you a completion date, ask for the expected acceptance date too. Those are two different things, and only one of them lets you move in.
There are no resale comps yet. In a community with zero closed sales, an appraiser is reaching to other neighborhoods for support. That is manageable, but it is a real risk on a financed purchase, and it is worth knowing before you fall in love with a lot.
You are buying the finished plan, not the finished neighborhood. With roughly 1,490 total residential units approved across houses, townhomes, and apartments, plus a 300-unit apartment complex called Aura Brookview approved in February 2026, construction on that tract runs for years. First-phase buyers get the best lot selection. They also get the longest stretch of living next to active building.
The contract is the builder's, not TREC's. Builder contracts are written to protect the builder, and the earnest money, delay, and inspection provisions do not read anything like the promulgated forms. Get the contract reviewed before you sign, and inspect new construction anyway, including the phases you cannot see once drywall goes up.
Budget for the year-two tax jump. Your first tax bill on a new build is often assessed on a partially finished lot, and the second one is not. That gap catches people every year, and it usually arrives as an escrow shortage letter. I wrote separately about protesting your taxes after buying new construction in Denton County, and the timing on that matters more than most people realize.
Brookview, Canyon Falls, or somewhere else in Flower Mound
No builder list has been released for Brookview yet. Green Brick builds in DFW through Trophy Signature Homes, CB JENI Homes, Normandy Homes, and Southgate Homes, and CB JENI is its attached-product brand, so those are the names I would expect to see on the 313 single-family lots and the 140 townhomes. Consider that an informed read, not a confirmation.
No pricing has been published either, which is the honest answer to the question everyone actually wants answered. For a frame of reference: the median sale price in Flower Mound was $666,000 in July 2026, homes in Canyon Falls sold at a median of $743,825 over the trailing twelve months at about 48 days on market, and Flower Mound townhomes currently list anywhere from $429,000 to $1.65 million depending on size and location.
So how do you decide?
Waiting for Brookview makes sense if your timeline is genuinely flexible into 2027, lot selection matters more to you than move-in certainty, you want a floor plan built to your specs, and you are comfortable being early in a community that will be under construction around you for years.
It probably does not make sense if you need to be in a home by a specific date, you are selling a current home and need the two closings to line up, or you need to see closed comps before you commit at this price point. In those cases, a resale in Canyon Falls or a home in one of the other Flower Mound new-construction communities that already has standing inventory will treat you better.
One more thing on the tax side, since it changes your monthly number. West Flower Mound is split across more than one school district, and the total rate runs roughly 1.69% to 1.79% of assessed value depending on which district a lot falls in. School districts are taxing entities here, and the assignment varies lot by lot. Confirm the district for the specific address before you build your budget around it, not after.
That is the kind of question worth running through before you put money down, not after the builder has your earnest money.
Frequently Asked Questions
When will the first Brookview homes be ready?
Lots release to builders in August 2026, and the town expects the first completed home in October 2026. Flower Mound's early release lot rules let builders start construction before the subdivision is formally accepted, but no one can occupy a home until the town accepts it. Ask your builder for both the completion date and the expected acceptance date.
Which builders are building in Brookview?
No builder list has been published for Brookview as of August 2026. Green Brick Partners builds in Dallas-Fort Worth through Trophy Signature Homes, CB JENI Homes, Normandy Homes, and Southgate Homes, so those are the brands to watch. Treat that as an educated expectation rather than a confirmation until the community releases its builder lineup.
Does Brookview have a MUD or PID tax?
Brookview's infrastructure is being reimbursed through impact fee credits and Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 2, which is a different mechanism from a MUD or a PID and does not add a separate assessment to a homeowner's tax bill. Even so, request the MUD and PID notice in writing before you sign a contract. That written disclosure is the only answer that legally binds anyone.
How much will homes in Brookview cost?
Brookview has not released pricing. For context, the median sale price in Flower Mound was $666,000 in July 2026, and homes in neighboring Canyon Falls sold at a median of $743,825 over the last twelve months. Expect the 140 townhomes in Phase 1 to price below the 313 single-family homes.
Is Brookview in Flower Mound or Argyle?
Brookview sits inside the Town of Flower Mound. Nearby Canyon Falls spans Flower Mound, Argyle, and Northlake, which is where the confusion comes from, and school district assignment in west Flower Mound varies by lot in a way that changes your total tax rate. Confirm both the municipality and the district for a specific lot before you write an offer.
Making the call on Brookview
Brookview is real, it is close, and it is finally on a clock. But a first-phase purchase in a brand-new community is a timing decision before it is a house decision, and the answer depends far more on your own situation than on the community itself.
