Whitestown—”it’s the real thing”, as they say in here in the small, charming town where the nation’s largest Coca-Colabottling company plans to open a massive facility in 2021. That’s also when Lennar will offer collections of new homes in the Jackson Run community.
Jackson Run provides homebuyers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purchase a new home at incredible value in Indiana’s fastest-growing town. Surrounded by vast greenbelts and multiple parks, Jackson Run lies only about 6 miles from I-65 for instant access to Indianapolis’s cosmopolitan downtown just 24 miles away.
Tucked just minutes away from Whitestown’s historic Main Street, Jackson Run will showcase two highly desirable collections of new homes for sale in Whitestown, Indiana including the Venture and Cottage designs.
As with all new Lennar homes, Everything’s Included®. That means homebuyers will enjoy high-quality craftsmanship, along with standard features most other homebuilders add on as optional features and then those higher costs are passed on to you.
The family-friendly town includes even more, with so many fun things to do all around Jackson Run. In Whitestown alone, no fewer than six parks are filled with such features as a pond, basketball and tennis courts, playgrounds and walking, fitness and nature trails.
Whitestown also runs along the Big Four Trail Linear Park. Built on a former railbed, the paved pathway will ultimately stretch 50 miles and connect Whitestown with Zionsville, Lebanon and other quaint small towns nestled in the area’s verdant, rural, wooded scenery.
Also nearby, desirable Lebanon offers a spectacular array of recreational options. Seashore Water Park, with pools, splash pads and giant water slides, and The Trophy Club, an 18-hole championship golf course, are within 15 miles of Jackson Run.
Abundant shopping choices are virtually around the corner. The Shoppes at Whitestown, just off I-65, include marquee retailers, while Whitestown’s central district is home to bicycle shops, bistros and cafes, a craft brewery and more.
World-class entertainment includes the Ruoff Music Center, an amphitheater with marquee concerts, just 32 miles away. Take the kids to the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis, within 20 miles of Jackson Run. Stroll or paddle down the Central Canal. Soak up nature and art at Newfields, which includes the Indianapolis Museum of Art galleries.
For higher-octane fun, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, home of the iconic Indy 500, is just a couple dozen miles from home. Bankers Life Field House home of the NBA franchise Indiana Pacers, and Lucas Oil Stadium, where the Indianapolis Colts play to diehard hoosiers and NFL fans. Both are very convenient and a short 30 minute drive away
There’s even more in the new community that dates back to 1851—now the perfect setting for families and an ideal place for kids to grow up, Lebanon Community School Corp. serves Jackson Run with nearby schools earning high ratings from niche.com.
These days, single-family homes face a severe inventory shortage as buyers continue to take full advantage of extraordinarily low interest rates that help keep monthly payments down. “Current rates on a conventional, 30-year mortgage with a 20% down payment are at their lowest since at least 1971, helping to keep monthly mortgage payments exceptionally low — and affordability high — even as bottom-line prices keep rising.” reports a new study from Zillow. What does that mean for you in the coming months? Keep reading below to find out!
Houston’s housing market continues to soar to record-breaking highs, and with new home builders rushing to meet buyer demands, we don’t see that momentum ceasing anytime soon. However, fence-sitters be warned—the expansion of buying power, all thanks to COVID-19 impacted mortgage rate lows won’t last forever. “Waiting to buy in Houston could mean higher mortgage payments,” says a recent article from Houston Agent Magazine. As the economy recovers from the 2020 pandemic, rates are inevitably expected to tick upwards after the first quarter of 2021.
With interest rates expected to jump up from the current rate of 2.68%, averaging a mortgage payment of $740 to an increase of $833 if interest rates creep up to 3%, why wait? Lennar has several models opening in February, like the nuHome and Lennar community of Winward in Katy, TX offering 13 incredible floorplans starting from just the $180,000s. Winward is zoned to Peter McElwain Elementary, Katy Junior High, and Patricia E. Paetow High School, all boasting TEA District “A” ratings within Katy ISD. For families interested in transferring to one of the finest school districts in the Houston area, Winward’s affordable price point has an undeniable appeal.

If it feels like Austin is spending a lot of time in the national spotlight lately, you aren’t mistaken. The proudly weird city that first gained acclaim as the Live Music Capital of the World has grown to become a mainstay either at or near the top of most every rating of the most desirable cities in the U.S. over the past decade.
The list of accolades runs deep, touching upon this Hill Country gem’s appeal for both business and lifestyle. A sampling includes Best Place to Live in America, Least Stressed Cities in America, Most Opportunities for Job Seekers, Healthiest Cities in America, Best Cities to Work from Home, Best Places to Retire and Best Cities for Female Entrepreneurs, among countless others.
It comes as no surprise then that Austin has recently been named the No. 1 Destination City for Relocating Households and the No. 3 Destination City for Corporate Moves. The reasoning for these high rankings can be seen in major announcements by a who’s who of top corporations choosing to bring their workforces to town, including Tesla, Hewlett Packard Technologies, and Oracle. There’s also Silcon Valley’s Airtable, Canva, Flex Health, BAE Systems, Boston Consulting Group and QuestionPro. And let’s not forget the continued expansion of major companies that already have a presence in Austin, such as Apple, Amazon, Facebook and Google.
No other city in the U.S. grew faster over the past decade, with approximately 120 residents arriving daily. The newest Austinites hail mostly from California, followed by New York, Florida, Illinois, Arizona and Colorado.
As Austin’s population grows, so too does the demand for attractive, affordable and flexible home designs in highly desirable neighborhoods across Central Texas. Families of all sizes are seeking places to call home that offer great amenities and schools, while also being in close proximity to business, shopping, dining and entertainment. It is especially important in such a competitive housing market that homebuyers be very selective in finding a builder they can trust, and one with a proven track record of success.
Thankfully, Lennar features over 40 communities spread out across the greater Austin area, spanning from Georgetown to the north, Kyle to the south, Manor to the east. Bee Cave to the west and all parts in between. Lennar’s gorgeous designs are purposefully crafted for homebuyers at all stages of life, whether first-time or move-up buyer, multigenerational family or active adult. Not only are the homes located in the Hill Country’s most desirable communities with fantastic amenities and school districts.
Lennar’s home offerings also reflect the company’s understanding of what features are of greatest importance to families and delivering them unlike any other builder – such as the Everything’s Included® initiative for connectivity, efficiency, luxury and simplicity. The Connected Home features wifi guaranteed with no dead spots, made possible by the eero Pro 6 mesh wifi system. It also includes the Ring Alarm Security Kit, Ring Video Doorbell Pro, MyQ Chamberlain Smart Garage Hub, and Level Bolt invisible smart lock. Lennar also brings Next Gen® – The Home Within a Home® multigenerational layouts, including reimagined dual office options, as well as Legacy Series floor plans exclusively for 55+ buyers, to homebuyers seeking plans able to accommodate their unique needs.
While Austin gets a little bigger each day, with more and more new homes being constructed, rest assured that Lennar will always remain true to its core values – quality, value and integrity – in fulfilling the homebuying experience for each individual family to help find the home of their dreams.

Love looks like an open floorplan & stunning kitchen
Who says spending time at home can’t be fun? Our new home designs showcase open layouts that bring together the most important spaces in our home: the Great Room, dining room and of course, the kitchen. Enjoy a larger feel, an abundance of natural light, layout flexibility and a unified space that opens endless opportunities for new memories at home. For example, movie nights are easier when you can refill snacks without missing a scene – or if you’re in the kitchen making dinner and can easily supervise the kids in the living room. For entertainment, family time or simply relaxing, you’ll love the convenience an open floorplan brings.
Love means Everything’s Included® with no dead spots
Ever toured a model home, fallen in love with the kitchen countertops only to find out they are an add-on feature? Not with Lennar.

Congratulations on your bundle of joy! Once you have moved into your new Lennar home to accommodate your growing family, setting up the nursery is probably high on your to do list. There are endless photos online you can browse through to get decorating inspiration, but we want to focus on the basics to help make sure you are prepared for your new arrival.
Here are a few tips for setting up your nursery.
Plan your furniture. Look at the room and plan where the furniture will go. Babies don’t need a lot of space, so start with the essential furniture: a place for baby to sleep, a place for changing diapers, a place to sit, and a place for storage. If the room allows, you can also think about a place for baby to play, and additional storage options or décor. The goal is to create a functional space that makes baby and parents happy. Avoid placing the crib by the window so that the light won’t disturb the baby’s sleep. Know the room’s measurements before purchasing furniture to make sure the furniture will fit.
Have everything you need within arm’s reach. You never want to be too far away from your little one, so make sure you have what you need close by and easily accessible. For example: think through the baby changing process and what is needed. Typically, you’ll need clean diapers, wipes, and cream. Your diaper pail should be right next to the changing station. And in case of a blowout (this WILL happen!) you’ll need clean clothes and the hamper near by as well. This is for your convenience, but also for the baby’s safety.
Create a comfortable place for yourself to nurse/feed. You’ll be spending a lot of time feeding the baby, so make sure you have a comfortable place to do so. You can’t go wrong with a rocking chair, since babies love to fall asleep to that rocking motion. But there are many options out there to choose from, so you’ll be sure to find one that fits your needs and style.
Have a system for storage and organization. Babies come with a lot of stuff! If you’re going to stay on top of it all, you’re going to need a plan. You should have the things you will use right away stored where it will be easy to grab. Then designate a place for everything else. Have an area to store extra diapers, wipes, garbage bags and other supplies. Organize the baby’s clothes by size, and store the larger sizes out of the way until needed. Have a box or bag for clothes that are deemed too small, and once it becomes full, wash the clothes, label them and store them away.
Keep your baby safe. Baby may not be able to move around the room much at first, but that day comes sooner than you realize! So go ahead and baby proof the room now to put your mind at ease. Anchor the furniture, cover the outlets, and secure anything that baby can grab. You’ll also want to set up a baby monitoring system. Since Lennar homes have been heat map engineered to ensure there are no wifi dead spots in your home, you can confidently set up your monitoring system to keep an eye on your child at any given time.
Once you have your essential items, you can move on to the décor items such as lighting and pictures. As your baby grows, their needs may change, and you can shift and change the room with it. If you’re thinking about a new home for your family, reach out to our Internet Sales Consultants to hear more about details of homes in the Nashville area.
Lennar is excited to introduce two new communities coming soon to the Salt Lake City metro area. Debuting this summer, Sunset Hills will offer large homesites in West Valley City with great views of the Wasatch Mountains and a location tucked alongside the Oquirrh Mountains for a relaxed environment, yet still in reach of great shopping, dining and entertainment. Sienna Hills will offer new homes in the rapidly growing City of West Jordan with expansive views of the Wasatch Mountains and near Oquirrh Mountains, shopping, dining, and for families with kids, well-regarded schools.
