Texas cherishes its well-deserved pride. Lennar keeps the Lone Star legend alive in Riverton, a community now selling on the historic and breathtaking B.F. Phillips Ranch, Located in West Frisco, “It’s a spread beautiful enough to put a gleam in one’s eye,” raves D Magazine, a Dallas publication, of the property once owned by one of the nation’s top quarter-horse breeders.
That’s just a look at Riverton’s setting. Nestled amid 1,000 acres of rolling green ranchland just 10 minutes from sparkling Lake Lewisville, the community boasts a rich array of amenities, too.

Speaking of families, Texas Education Agency-rated “exemplary” Frisco Independent School District schools are within walking distance; an elementary and middle school are within the community.

Mmm… bacon. It must be time to get up, as soon as I’m done with this biiiiiiig stretch.
Allow me to introduce myself: my name is Akira and I’m a Collie living in this really cool place that the humans call “Satori”. We came here after the smallest human was born because we needed more room and now I have so much more space to run and play!
Let me tell you, this place has everything. The humans even talk to this lady who lives in the walls named ‘Alexa’ and she makes magic happen around the home: she can turn on the moving picture box hanging on the wall, and sometimes she makes the spinny air machine on the ceiling go really fast during the summer when it’s hot out (that’s my favorite because my fur moves around and the humans tell me how pretty I am).
I have it really good here. The best human is “dad” – he’s my best friend. The food room is probably my favorite because it smells different every day and I love to investigate. Even though the countertops are too high for me to steal the humans’ foods and I don’t have thumbs to open the big food cages, sometimes dad shares with me, even when “mom” tells him not to. They should make dog food taste as good as human food!
You’re never going to believe this, but we have FIVE beds! One is really supposed to be for grandma when she comes to visit, but once everyone is already asleep, I usually sneak upstairs and sleep there all night. Unless they close the door. Then I just sleep wherever is comfiest that day, and trust me, there are lots of spots around here.
I love to swim, so the humans made sure to find a home here with a pool where I could play and splash with them. There is lots of space to run around here. Chasing lizards and playing fetch on the patios after the humans come back from wherever they go is my favorite, especially when they let the Labrador from across the street come play with me, too. We always wait by our front doors, so we can say hi to our mailman when he brings us our chew toys.
Every week, there are two days in a row that the humans don’t go anywhere. Those are the best days ever. We walk around outside and this “Satori” place even has a park where I like to chase birds and roll in the grass next to the big lake. I’m not allowed to swim in the lake like the pool, but sometimes I get to watch fish jump from the water and that’s almost as fun.
I also hear the humans talk about something called ‘Lennar’ a lot. They seem to really like him. He gave them Everything Included and he’s friends with the Alexa lady, so I would let him pet me if he ever came to visit my humans. He made all of the homes around here and as far as I know, all of the other pups are as happy here as I am. Every night before I go curl up in grandma’s bed, I think about how cool it must be to be a human here, too. But, I think I’ll stick to being Akira.
You’ve finished unpacking, the rooms look great, and now there’s only one thing left to do: make your brand-new townhome the happy hour venue everybody loves. With many 4-story units offering breathtaking views of Downtown Doral and Urbana’s sparkling lake, your skyview terrace is cool, comfortable, and doesn’t require a reservation.
Wowing your friends won’t mean slaving away over the stove for hours, though your kitchen’s exquisite finishes–like stainless steel appliances, contemporary flat-panel cabinets, and luxury countertops with elegant backsplash–might make you want to linger!
By combining a few simple ingredients that bring out the sweet flavors of summer, you’ll pull off the ultimate happy hour, comparable to the most enticing Brickell rooftop experience.
Happy hour and cocktails have become almost one and the same, but for those who prefer not to consume alcohol, there are delicious drinks to indulge the senses.
Strawberries and basil combine to create an iconic summer flavor duo. Blend a pint of fresh strawberries with a touch of sugar and lemon juice to create a simple strawberry puree (in the rare case of leftovers, drizzle the extra over yogurt or pancakes as a post-happy hour breakfast the next day). Combine 1 part strawberry puree; 2 parts tonic water; optionally,1.5 oz of the alcohol of your choice – vodka, champagne and gin are all good options; and 2-3 fresh basil leaves for a sweet, bubbly sip your friends won’t be able to get enough of.
Serve in chilled flutes, rimmed with sugar and a strawberry slice as garnish to ensure ultimate Instagrammability with Downtown Doral as a backdrop.
Take your happy hour “toast” beyond clinking glasses. Crostini are an easy, fun and easy-to-eat snack that give the feeling of fancy without the hassle of prepping a full meal. And you know what they say: a balanced happy hour is a snack in one hand and a drink in the other.
Cut a long loaf of French bread diagonally into 1-inch thick slices, giving yourself plenty of real estate for toppings. To ensure optimum crispiness, lightly toast the bread on your skyview terrace grill before topping. For a Caprese-style crostino, top with juicy sliced cherry tomatoes, sweet Mozzarella cheese and pesto alla Genovese — the pesto could either be homemade using your leftover basil from the drinks, or store-bought (no one will know the difference). If you’re more of a sundried tomato type, slather some goat cheese (bonus points if it’s herbed) onto the toasts and top with thinly sliced sundried tomatoes and balsamic glaze for a sweet and savory snack.
Round out the menu with a simple salad of mixed greens, oven-roasted brussels sprouts, pine nuts, and Parmesan cheese (both of which will also be leftover if you decide to make your pesto at home). A drizzle of fresh lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil will add brightness, completing your summery happy hour spread.
Wondering how you’ll get all of your cocktails, mocktails, crostini and greens up four floors? Simply hop on the elegant private elevator inside your home. Skip the cardio – it’s happy hour, after all – and zip your party platters right to the top without breaking a sweat.
And, lastly, no good happy hour is complete without some tunes. With activation and support by Amazon and voice control by Alexa, just speak a command to play your favorite playlist and you’re all set!
Entertaining at home doesn’t have to be complicated. When your new townhome comes with Everything’s Included®, a skyview terrace perfect for sunset selfies and for sharing good food and a toast or two with friends, hosting might just become your favorite summer hobby at Urbana at Downtown Doral by Lennar.
