The master-planned community of Dellrose in Hockley, TX is set to release the first of 277 new homesites, raising the total of developed Dellrose lots to more than 1,000. Along with this new release, Empire Communities, a homebuilder for the project, is unveiling a new series of floor plans: the mid-century modern Enclave Series.

“This release of new homesites will help alleviate the demand our builders have been experiencing,” said Matt Janke, Vice President of Land Acquisition and Development for Empire Continental Land, developer of Dellrose.

The total 277 homesites will be split into three new sections of Dellrose. In two of those sections, Empire Communities and Chesmar Homes will build homes together, with sizes ranging from 1,518 to 2,630 square feet and pricing beginning in the $200,000s. The Enclave Series, overseen by Empire Communities, will feature three- and four-bedroom homes with square footage ranging from 1,800 to 2,300 square feet.

“The Enclave Series will introduce a fresh architectural element to the community,” explained Tracy Brown, the division president for Empire Communities. “And with starting prices in the $200s, we are able to maintain a level of affordability that has been dwindling in the Houston-area market.”

Lennar and Ashton Woods Homes will head construction in the third section, where homes are to be priced from the low $300,000s and range in size from 1,747 to 2,890 square feet.

Dellrose home sales will begin in September 2021, with models of the Empire Communities and Chesmar Homes models opening later in the year. That includes the mid-century modern Enclave Series. Those homes are set to feature three- and four-bedroom homes with square footage ranging from 1,800 to 2,300 square feet.

In addition to the three sections of housing, Dellrose will include tennis courts, a playground, walking trails, a clubhouse, a pool and a splash pad.
