Lennar’s newest masterplan, Canopy Grove, is a one-of-a-kind masterplan community situated in the heart of Escondido, with four new communities that are now selling. Models are open by appointment with self-guided tours available. With a wide variety of single-family homes to choose from, home shoppers will find great single-story options at Haven, Retreat and Sanctuary.

“We know a single-story home design is a popular choice with today’s homebuyers due to its easy livability and the convenience of having everything you need on one level,” said Cindy Baker, Director of Marketing for Lennar San Diego. “We are thrilled to offer three distinctive single-story plans here at Canopy Grove and invite any homebuyers on the hunt for a single-story to come and learn more about the options available here.”

The Plan 1 home designs at Haven, Retreat and Sanctuary all showcase single-story designs and range in size from approximately 1,525 to 1,994 square feet. These homes feature three bedrooms, two bathrooms and two-bay garages with prices that start from the low $600,000s.

Canopy Grove features four communities in total, with model homes open by appointment at each community and self-guided or Lennar-guided tours available. Models from each community showcase two-story designs, however a single-story home is ready for in-person tours and home shoppers can schedule an appointment with a New Home Consultant to learn more or visit the website to explore floorplans and renderings.

Future amenities make the Canopy Grove masterplan a desirable place to live, including three parks with extensive walking paths, Pickle Ball and Bocce Ball, playgrounds, barbeques, dog parks and picnic pavilions. A barn-style recreation area called Basecamp will sit at the heart of Canopy Grove and offer an exciting hub of activity. The space offers a gathering area equipped with a kitchen, indoor and outdoor event spaces, restrooms and an office. The recreation center also features a resort-style swimming pool, spa, fitness center, event lawn and shower facilities.

Solar is also included on each new home with program lease or purchase options.

Canopy Grove is located in the heart of Escondido, California, minutes from Interstate 15 and California State Highway 78, just 30 miles from downtown San Diego and only 30 minutes from famed local beaches.

Pumpkin spice always takes the seasonal spotlight, but north Texas harvests a much fuller cornucopia than just the gourds’ popular powder. While pumpkin patches are as ubiquitous as Lennar’s new homes for sale throughout DFW, so are local flavors from local sources.

In the fall, the area’s farms specialize in beets, turnips, baby arugula and leeks, among others. Two crops in particular — cilantro and pecans — not only grow close to home, they’re close to the hearths and hearts of every Texan.

Sure, Bon Appétit named Dallas 2019’s “Restaurant City of the Year,” but now more than ever is the ideal time to try home-cooked seasonal dishes. Since Everything’s Included® in Lennar’s new homes for sale in Dallas, TX, chef-worthy kitchens make the cooking easier.

In Lennar’s Sutton Fields community, whose collection of six floorplans showcase sophisticated new homes for sale in Celina, TX, kitchens are appointed with gas ranges for ultimate cooking control, as well as gourmet-quality granite or quartz countertops.

So, where to find ingredients for local autumnal specialties? Take the family to Friday Night Market on the Square in Celina’s historic center.

There, you’ll find fresh seasonal veggies and fruit, crafts, honey, breads and even homegrown live music. Gather the makin’s for pumpkin chili, a vegetarian (and contemporary) take on Texas’s most renowned dish — although you’d have to remove the beans and, well, the vegetables to make the gen-u-wine version of the state’s official dish.

As for beef, nothing tops Fort Worth. Lennar’s Creekside at Colleyville is situated only about 17 miles from the iconic Fort Worth Stockyards. Those new homes for sale in Colleyville, TX boast kitchens with gourmet features, like oversized kitchen islands and large pantries to store your favorite essentials.

A plethora of butcher shops nearby offers cuts for fajita soup, the perfect meal-in-a-bowl to warm you from toes to nose and from inside out as north Texas’s fall temps fall.

Now for dessert. Pe-CAHN or PEA-can, the fruit ripens on area trees from early October through the first week of December. “Pecans are a Southern staple, but Texas takes it to a whole other level,” Southern Living says of the state pie of Texas. Here’s their recipe.

These dishes get gobbled up fast. So do Lennar homes. In fact, homebuying opportunities at Creekside and Lennar’s Waterbrook community are going as quickly as sweet slices of pie or tasty bowls of red.

With new homes for sale in Argyle, TX, Waterbrook lies just 2.5 miles from I-35W, offering outstanding access to all the local flavors you’ll need to fall for all the tastes of Texas.

To find even more Lennar ingredients for a most flavorful life, calling the Dallas-Fort Worth Internet New Home Sales Consultants at (866) 314-4477, or take a virtual tour now.

With self- guided and Lennar-guided tours available by appointment, it’s a great time to purchase a home here at Avanté.

“Located in the heart of Del Sur, many of our current homeowners at Avanté benefit from living close to family in other Del Sur neighborhoods along with the ease of being within walking distance to the shops, restaurants and services at the Del Sur Town Center,” said Cindy Baker, Director of Marketing for Lennar San Diego. “With many easy ways to tour while social distancing, home shoppers can enjoy a safe and simple homebuying experience.”

Avanté enjoys a gated location with it access to its own private amenities along with Del Sur’s other extensive amenity centers including 14 parks, 11 solar-heated pools, miles of trails and more. Their exclusive recreation center features a clubhouse, fitness room, swimming pool, spa, fire pit, barbecue area and more.

With single and two-story floorplans available, homebuyers will find five distinctive floorplans to choose from that range in size from approximately 1,544 to 1,787 square feet. The homes provide up to three bedrooms and three bathrooms, along with innovative features such as private in-home elevators, dual master suites, second-story balconies per plan, gourmet kitchens, open living spaces and two-bay garages.

Each home at Avanté comes with added value and style through Lennar’s signature Everything’s Included® program, which includes today’s popular features and upgrades – such as stainless appliances including refrigerator, quartz countertops, upgraded cabinetry, solar, integrated home automation and Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ designs – all at no additional cost.

Indoor plants have become a decor item you see in every home. This touch of greenery can instantly brighten up indoor spaces and may provide health benefits as well.

Many of the plants below have become popular in a variety of modern decor themes, especially because they are relatively easy to care for. Those who live in smaller spaces with little or no yard, or those in cold climates, can use indoor plants to bring life into the home.

Below are some of the most popular indoor plants and how to care for them, easy enough for any first-time plant parent to make sure these babies thrive!

Also, if you’re a budding green thumb, then you’ll love Arden – a new community from Lennar featuring a centrally-located community garden that produces fruits, vegetables, and herbs for you to enjoy. Arden is located in the heart of Palm Beach County and designed around picturesque Arden Lake.

indoor house plants

Succulents

These cute, supple little plants are small and fresh, and perfect for your desk, bookshelves or bathroom. Living Stones and Lithops are a popular type of succulent, growing only a few centimeters above the soil surface, and easy to take care of.

Cactus

Cacti are such a commonly collected plant that come in all shapes, sizes, and textures. Two fun types of cacti are the Bunny-Eared Opuntia cacti, which produces prickly pads, and the Barrel Cactus, with bright yellow spines. Both are perfect for growing on windowsills.

Aloe Vera

Commonly known as the first-aid plant, aloe vera is great to keep around the house as it can treat minor burns. These plants are best placed in kitchens and bathrooms. The aloe rauhii snowflake is a beautiful type of aloe vera plant which produces beautiful rosettes of green spotted leaves that are more white than green.

Money Plant

Said to be lucky, these plants are beautiful decorative pieces that can be featured in the center of a table or on a sunny windowsill. The green plant also comes in variations of Silver Jade and Golden Jade, which appear to have golden-edged leaves.

Ferns

Ferns give an ambient greenery to any space in the home. Place these plants in the corner of rooms, bathrooms, or kitchens to give them a cool shady home. While not all ferns are suitable for the home, the maidenhair, asparagus, and sword ferns are popular amongst plant-owners.

Hopefully, you feel confident in becoming a plant-owner now and can fill your space with beautiful green decor. Whether it’s on a sunny window, kitchen and dining tabletops, or the moist confines of your bathroom, you’re sure to find a plant that’s perfect for your space!

After spending a LOT of time at home this year, you might be looking for ways to refresh your living space. Perhaps you tried a few trends that don’t look quite as fresh as they once did, or the wall color you once loved now feels drab and outdated. No need to worry! There are so many simple ways to make big changes to your living space without spending a lot.

Change Up Kitchen Hardware

Swap out your kitchen faucet, upgrade a minor appliance, or change the style and finish of your cabinet handles. All of these can make your kitchen feel new again, and the possibilities are endless and affordable. By matching a trendy brass faucet with brass handles, you can create a whole new aesthetic in your kitchen. Mixing and matching tones, textures, or colors can add layers of visual intrigue!

Create A Statement Wall

This DIY project is a major way to create a change in the scenery without spending so much time or money. Typically, we see accent walls as a pop of color or variant of your wall color, but don’t be afraid to try a trendy pattern. Wallpaper is making a comeback! Adding removable wallpaper to an accent wall can breathe new life into any room.

refresh your living space

Switch Up Throw Pillows & Rugs

Making these two decor items match or contrast can give your living room the spruce it needs. Matching them to your mood or season can keep your space looking and feeling relevant. If the space is feeling dull, bright vibrant colors could spruce up the room, or if you wish to feel more grounded, earthy natural tones are the way to go. The positioning of your rug can bring a whole new dynamic. Try placing it at an angle and create a new flow to the room!

Dress Up The Windows

Swap out old blinds for flowy new curtains, a set of roman blinds – or both – to bring the eye up, as well as add layers and depth. Adding a new color curtain rod or window framing is a simple move that can completely transform the look of your space.

Bring In New Bedding

Replacing the bedding on the centerpiece of the bedroom can bring so much new life to your room. Try cozy neutral-colored bedding to give a down-to-earth feel that you can decorate around boldly, or make the bed the center of your decor with fun patterns and textures that make the room feel dynamic.
