"Heritage offers an inviting mix of old and new, from classic country to modern designs and rich, state-of-the-art amenities to the traditional and walkable hometown feel," said Chelsea Timmons, vice president of community experience at Tri Pointe Homes in Austin. "That balance feels both natural and exciting to a broad range of Heritage homeowners as we bring new collections to a new submarket interwoven with old Texas Hill Country charm and Tri Pointe's unwavering approach to making a premium lifestyle possible for our customers."
Heritage includes the debut of the brand-new Arbor Collection at Heritage, which includes Bobby Berk's standout model home. Priced from the mid-$400s, the residences at Heritage combine a contemporary aesthetic with classic color accents inspired by the Texas countryside.
"Every lifestyle community should feel warm and welcoming, and Heritage captures that feeling throughout the model homes and the Texas Hill Country setting," said Berk, who has helped launch 15 different Tri Pointe Homes' communities over the past seven years and filmed a Season 6 episode of the Netflix series ‘Queer Eye' in Dripping Springs. "The appealing colors and wide-open spaces of the countryside became the inspiration for my designs. I wanted to bring in a balance of nature, the feeling of comfort and familiarity, and fresh inspiration and innovation."
