Stinson Highlands
Newer custom homes on generous lots - a middle ground in a large-lot city
Stinson Highlands is a newer residential enclave in Lucas, with development dating to around 2012 and much of the construction from roughly 2015 onward, including the Estates at Stinson Highlands built by Grand Homes. It offers a middle ground for buyers who want the low-density, semi-rural Lucas setting - larger lots, room to spread out, quiet streets - without maintaining the full two-acre pastures found in the acreage districts elsewhere in the city. Homes are spacious custom and semi-custom builds, so expect wide variation in size and finish rather than a tight, repeatable price band.
