    Fall hard for this Frisco farmhouse's modern charm and upgrades

    A home that combines a welcoming farmhouse exterior with a sleek and chic modern interior is truly the best of both worlds, especially when it also comes loaded with perks.

    Completed in 2016 by Southgate Homes, 7650 Cassion Dr. in the Frisco community The Canals at Grand Park is full of upgrades, starting with the roomy front porch and dramatic two-story entryway, which is crowned by a light fixture that feels more like floating artwork than an electrical necessity. That airiness extends past the open staircase into the main living room, with its beamed vaulted ceiling and floor-to-ceiling fireplace (an equally impressive fireplace can be found outside on the covered back patio).

    The 4,984-square-foot home's open layout connects the living space to a gourmet kitchen, which shows off a crisp white color palette and huge quartz island. Seemingly miles of countertop surround a built-in refrigerator, six-burner gas range with griddle, and a butler's pantry that leads to an eight-foot-deep pantry.

    Two bedrooms and another full bath join the master suite downstairs. The master bath is a spa-like retreat, with floating vanities, quartz countertops, and a walk-in shower and tub. Not a separate tub and shower — a large soaking tub actually in the walk-in shower. A built-in dresser and room for seasonal storage further elevate the walk-in closet, which with its expansive footprint and sunny windows almost feels like a mini-boutique.

    Upstairs are two more oversize bedrooms, each with walk-in closets and their own baths. A game room separates the upstairs media room — with its raised bar area behind all the seating — from the bedrooms, and includes great storage plus a built-in desk area for homework.

    Even the home's utilitarian spaces are thoughtfully and stylishly designed. The large utility room has space for a freezer along with a sink and its own wall-mounted drinking fountain. Custom-built lockers and a half bath can be found along the way to the four-car garage.

    The expansive backyard doesn't have a pool, because it doesn't need one: The home has full access to the community's water park-like pool and state-of-the-art fitness center. Quarterly HOA dues also help maintain the neighborhood's blooming flower beds and lush landscaping.

    Listed for $850,000 by ​The Eddleman Group with Ebby Halliday Realtors, this home is sure to go fast.

    The home at 7650 Cassion Dr. in Frisco is listed for $850,000.

    New Port Aransas luxury beach cottages come with their own water park

    If thoughts of spring break have North Texans yearning for a beach vacation, an upcoming Port Aransas development may provide some inspiration — or at least a few daydreams. Spoonbill Bay is currently under construction on Mustang Island, promising ocean views and a slew of fun amenities.

    Future residents of the community, located bayside of State Highway 361, are in for some splashy fun. State regulatory records reveal that Spoonbill Bay will soon begin work on a water park that will have multiple pools, a lazy river, a splash pad, an amusement park-style slide tower, sunning decks, and cabanas.

    “This is what Phase One will be like when we open in May 2026,” said Alex Harris, owner and CEO of Brite Star Construction, in a Facebook post. “Children’s water slides and water playground, large family pool with a swim-up bar, second-floor pavilion for relaxing and parties, tiki bar with lots of TVs, and a full assortment of food at the entry building.”

    Surrounding the aquatic park will be several white cottages built in Lowcountry style with raised foundations, porches, and large windows to take in the Coastal sun. The two- to three-bed homes come in a variety of floor plans with their own private lap pools.

    Spoonbill Bay closes a gap in Port Aransas’ luxury vacation home market. Although the city is speckled with several ultra-high-end properties, the development provides a less expensive gateway to island living. The 916 to 1,284 square feet cottages start at $500,000, a hair below the area’s almost $600,000 median home price, according to Zillow.

    Some of the homes have already been completed, and the full construction is expected to wrap up in 2026. Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation filings say the water park will be finished by late June, although timelines are always subject to change.
