Introduction: Why Lavon, TX is the Place for New Homes

If you're searching for new homes for sale in Lavon TX, Elevon is one of those communities worth bookmarking. Located right off Highway 78 in Lavon, Texas, Elevon is a planned master community expected to unfold over a decade or more with roughly 4,000 homes. The scale means a long runway for growth, amenities, and resales — and an opportunity to get in early when pricing and selection are most favorable.

Builders are already moving on the land: model homes are arriving, spec homes are going up, and pre-sales are underway. That activity translates to visible progress — in some pockets houses went from foundation to fully bricked in the span of a week.

Elevon Community Builders & Price Points

Two primary builders are actively involved at launch: DR Horton and Pacesetter. Additional builders like K. Hovnanian, Union Main, and History Maker are expected to join as the project expands.

Price ranges are positioned to serve a broad buyer pool:

  • DR Horton: Inventory and quick-move-in homes starting under $300K (roughly $280K–$300K).
  • Pacesetter: Starting near the low $330Ks, with more standard options for upgrades.

For anyone comparing options for new homes for sale in Lavon TX, the difference between spec homes and 2B builds matters. Spec homes are already finished or near finished and move-in ready. 2B built homes let you select finishes and personalize your layout before construction completes.

Lot Sizes and Amenities in Elevon, Lavon TX

The community is primarily laying out 50- and 60-foot lots, with a few possible 40-foot homesites mixed in. Pacesetter is focusing on 50- and 60-foot lots specifically, which tends to influence yard size and street feel.

Amenities planned for Elevon follow the modern master-plan playbook and include:

  • Dog parks and green space
  • Walking and bike trails that connect neighborhoods
  • Multiple pools and recreation centers
  • Community event spaces and future amenity centers near the lake

Living close to Lake Lavon is a major draw. Several neighborhoods sit within easy reach of the water, making weekend boating or lakeside activities completely accessible for residents.

Choosing the Right Builder in Elevon: DR Horton vs. Pacesetter

Choosing a builder comes down to three things: budget, level of customization you want, and timeline. If your priority is the lowest purchase price and the quickest move-in, DR Horton specs are the most likely to meet that need.

If customization and finish choices matter more to you, Pacesetter is a strong contender. Pacesetter's Craftsman line offers more selection options than the DR Horton Traditions product line. That means you can influence interior finishes, cabinetry, and other details that affect long-term satisfaction and resale.

  • DR Horton Traditions: Good baseline pricing, faster move-ins, fewer selections on spec homes.
  • Pacesetter Craftsman: Higher starting price but more customization and a more hands-on build experience for buyers.

For prospective buyers scanning new homes for sale in Lavon TX, my personal preference leans toward Pacesetter for the added flexibility. That is one agent perspective; weigh options against your budget and priorities.

Best Timing and Strategy for Buying New Homes in Lavon TX

There are two good windows to get a deal in large planned communities: be among the first buyers when inventory is limited and incentives are common, or be among the last buyers when builders may offer price adjustments to clear remaining lots.

If you can live with a construction-zone lifestyle for a year or two and want selection, getting in early at Elevon is advantageous. Early buyers often get priority on lot selection and more attractive pricing. Conversely, if timing isn't urgent, monitor progress and product mix — resale activity down the road can also create opportunity.

Schools, Location, and Lake Access in Lavon TX

Lavon falls inside Community ISD — the town itself does not operate an independent school district. There have been plans discussed to add an elementary school within the masterplan, which would make the neighborhood more walkable and family-friendly as development progresses.

Location wise, immediate access to Highway 78 makes the commute into nearby job centers straightforward. And being close to Lake Lavon is a lifestyle advantage for outdoor recreation and weekend plans.
