Whitewing Trails
Princeton's flagship master-planned community: new-build homes, an amenity center, and miles of trails on 800+ acres
Whitewing Trails is Princeton's largest master-planned community, developed by Centurion American on a site the developer describes as more than 800 acres. It launched with 366 homesites in phase one and is planned to grow across multiple phases. The homes are almost entirely new construction from national builders, aimed squarely at first-time and move-up buyers priced out of Frisco and McKinney. Because it is still actively building out, the mix of available homes, lot sizes, and incentives changes constantly. Ask Mali for the current, MLS-sourced inventory rather than relying on a single builder's base price.
Price Range
Roughly high-$300s to $500K+, spanning builder base prices from the low-$300s on 40'–50' lots up to the high-$400s on 60' lots (builder listings, 2026). Builder incentives and rate buydowns distort recorded prices in Princeton, so treat this as a broad band and ask for current comps.
Property Types
New-construction single-family, 40', 50' and 60' builder lots, First-time and move-up homes
Year Built
2022–present (active new-construction build-out)
HOA: Builder-reported HOA dues vary by section, roughly $85/mo for some Beazer sections up to about $516 semi-annual for Trophy sections (builder listings, 2026). Confirm the exact figure and what it covers for any specific home.
