Evergrove, a new approximately 2,000-homesite planned community, is coming soon to Fort Bend County near Richmond and Fulshear, with presales anticipated to begin in July, according to a press release. Developed as a joint venture between Tri Pointe Homes, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Sumitomo Forestry Co., Ltd. (TSE: 1911), and Toll Brothers (NYSE: TOL), with Tri Pointe Homes serving as lead developer, Evergrove introduces a fresh alternative to more conventional planned communities in the Greater Houston market, pairing modern design with the natural character of the land. Home pricing is expected from the mid $400,000s.
Shaped by Jones Creek and the surrounding landscape, Evergrove brings an urban-inspired design perspective to preserved green space, natural features and planned amenities intended to support wellness, everyday convenience and a more connected way of life. The community enters the Richmond/Fulshear corridor, where access to schools, regional employment centers and lifestyle amenities continues to shape demand for new-home options.
"Evergrove started with the land," said Collins Pier, Vice President of Land Acquisition & Development at Tri Pointe Homes, in the release. "Jones Creek, the mature trees and the natural green space gave us a foundation for a community that could feel different from the beginning. Our goal is to build on that character with a modern design approach, thoughtful amenities and places designed to make everyday connection feel natural."
Evergrove will include 45-, 50-, 60-, 70- and 80-foot-wide homesites and is located within Lamar Consolidated Independent School District. The community also offers access to major regional corridors, including Grand Parkway/TX-99 Toll and Westpark Tollway, with routes toward employment centers across the Greater Houston area.
Evergrove reflects a more natural and contemporary approach to community design, with trails, parks and gathering spaces woven throughout the plan. Planned amenities include a modern recreation center, fitness center, resort-style pool, children's playscape, pavilion event and activity lawn, lakes with select catch-and-release fishing opportunities, dog park and sports courts.
"Evergrove is a strong fit for Toll Brothers because it combines a highly desirable Fort Bend County location with thoughtful planning, a distinctive setting and the scale to support a compelling new-home offering," said Brian Murray, Division President at Toll Brothers, in the release. "We look forward to contributing to a community that will bring new home choices to this growing corridor."
The announcement matters because it adds significant housing inventory to one of the fastest-growing regions in the country. Fort Bend County has seen sustained demand for new homes driven by job growth, relatively affordable housing and quality schools. With pricing starting in the mid $400,000s, Evergrove targets move-up buyers and families seeking modern amenities and access to employment centers via major toll roads.
For the homebuilding industry, the joint venture between Tri Pointe Homes and Toll Brothers signals confidence in the Houston market's long-term potential. Both companies are among the nation's largest builders, and their collaboration on a 2,000-home project underscores the scale of investment flowing into the region. For prospective homebuyers, Evergrove offers a chance to purchase a new home in a community designed with contemporary aesthetics and wellness-focused amenities, which could influence home values and lifestyle quality.
