HUTTO, Texas – (Realty News Report) – Tri Pointe Homes has announced the grand opening of Flora, an 825-acre master-planned community in Hutto, located northeast of Austin.
“Hutto has earned a reputation as one of Texas’ safest and fastest-growing communities, offering residents a balanced blend of small-town charm and modern convenience with strong schools, low crime rates, and a high quality of life,” said Bryan Havel, Division President of Tri Pointe Homes Austin. “Flora is designed to uphold those standards as a community that meets the expectations of today’s homebuyers.”
Hutto sits roughly 10 miles from the site of the major $17 billion Samsung semiconductor campus in Taylor. The 6-million-square-foot facility, currently under construction, is expected to create approximately 2,000 jobs for the region.
Tri Pointe is a leading homebuilder that for decades operated under the Trendmaker Homes brand.
At Flora, Tri Pointe is offering seven floorplans within its Terrace Collection to suit a wide range of buyer needs. The one- and two-story homes span approximately 1,600 to 2,750 square feet and include 3 to 4 bedrooms, 2 to 3.5 bathrooms, and 2-bay garages.
Tri Pointe Homes emphasizes sustainable building through its LivingSmart program, which promotes environmental responsibility, energy efficiency, and long-term homeowner savings. The program focuses on five core areas—HealthSmart, EnergySmart, EarthSmart, WaterSmart, and HomeSmart—integrating efficient systems and design features so Flora homes deliver a greener, more comfortable living experience.
Flora’s community plan centers on outdoor living, wellness, and connectivity. The future Bloom House amenity center, expected to open in August 2025, will offer a resort-style pool, fitness center, splash pad, parks, and trails. Additional planned features include a Market Square for farm-fresh produce and food trucks, a kid-focused adventure zone, expansive green spaces, and miles of scenic trails to support an active lifestyle and neighborhood interaction.
Located about three miles from downtown Hutto, Flora provides a balance of peaceful suburban living and convenient access to everyday needs. The community is near local shopping and dining, served by highly rated Hutto ISD schools, and within easy commuting distance of major employment centers in Round Rock, Georgetown, and Austin. Outdoor attractions such as Lake Travis and North Austin entertainment venues are also a short drive away.
Tri Pointe Homes, Inc. (NYSE: TPH) is one of the largest homebuilders in the United States, with operations across 12 states and the District of Columbia.
