New Construction in Celina

Celina

What new construction looks like in Celina

Amy Jacobs, REALTOR®, guides Celina relocation: historic downtown charm and fast-growing master plans along the Preston Road corridor.

The homes

Mustang Lakes is a premier master plan built around a 20-acre central park and private lake, with luxury builders including Britton and Perry Homes (carries a MUD/PID). Lilyana is a high-end boutique master plan with resort-style amenities (carries a PID). The Lakes at Carter Ranch and Eighteen 76 offer premier custom builds with expanded lot sizes and privacy.

Why people choose it

Buyers drawn to historic small-town charm alongside fast-growing luxury master plans.

Getting around

Traveling north on Preston Road past Highway 380 crosses signalized intersections. Plan for 35–45 minute drives to central hubs during peak hours.

Nearby

Downtown Celina Square hosts Friday Night Markets and Cajun Fest, with brick-paved boutique shopping. The Preston Road corridor is the primary north-south artery through Celina toward Oklahoma, lined with new construction.

The trade-off

Newer master plans here carry PIDs or MUDs (Mustang Lakes and Lilyana both do), which raise the effective tax rate above Celina's baseline. Confirm the specific district's rate before comparing to other cities.
