The Tribute Adds American Legend Homes to List of Distinguished Builders
THE COLONY, TX – November 22, 2010 – (RealEstateRama) — Matthews Southwest, one of the region’s most progressive developers, today announces that American Legend Homes has joined its select stable of builders and will offer its award-winning, sustainable home plans at The Tribute Resort Community on the shores of Lewisville Lake.
American Legend Homes will be building homes in the Balmerino and Aberdeen neighborhoods, ranging from $300,000 to $1 million with custom options. Balmerino – featuring lots along the recently-opened, critically-acclaimed Old American Golf Club – is a gated community perfect for families, empty nesters and avid golfers. Aberdeen – adjacent to the site of the planned elementary school — is ideal for young families, featuring a playground and (water) spray park.
“By partnering with American Legend Homes, The Tribute adds another prestigious local builder with a reputation for delivering a best-in-class residential product,” says Jack Matthews, President of Matthews Southwest. “Their work will further our mission of making The Tribute one of the most livable and relaxing places to live in Texas.”
“With its two highly-ranked golf courses, amenities, trails and future lake amenities and school, The Tribute is unlike any other residential development in north Texas,” says Kevin Egan, President of American Legend Homes. “Matthews Southwest’s commitment to and investment in the Metroplex is completely in-line with American Legend Home’s brand promise.”
American Legend Homes builds high performance, energy efficient homes that provide homeowners with less maintenance. American Legend Homes’ projects are constructed with environmentally-friendly features, providing owners with increased comfort, long-term savings and enhanced resale value.
