New Construction Home Sold and Closed in Katy/Fulshear   My client purchased a new build home during the early spring of 2013 and this home was closed two weeks ago in mid-October 2013. I did not post a blog about this closing as my client had not yet moved into this beautiful home.

The home is located in Churchill Farms which has a Fulshear address but is zoned to attend Katy ISD schools. New construction starting at the beginning is not for every buyer. The home has 5 bedrooms with two bedrooms on the first floor; 5.5 baths; contains slightly over 4,000 sq.ft. per the builder; media room, game room, and library are included; home has a custom kitchen with tw...

Churchill Farms Homes for Sale Katy June 27, 2013   Churchill Farms in far west Katy or eastern Fulshear is a fairly new subdivision that began with land being cleared during November 2011 and homes being sold without a model(s) during January 2012.
