About This Floor Plan

The Dakota is a wonderfully spacious home for families of any lifestyle. Entering the impressive Dakota plan, you are welcomed by a long foyer entry and are immediately greeted by your formal dining room - ideal for hosting dinner parties or your family for the holidays. If you'd rather have a private place to work from home, opt to make it a study room instead. Down the entryway is your convenient downstairs powder room, a walk-in utility room, and access to your two-car garage. Need more space to store tools, supplies, or another car? The Dakota gives you the opportunity to include an additional five feet to your garage or turn it into a three-car. Back inside, you are met with a spacious kitchen and a combined cozy, niche-style breakfast area that you can add a box window seat to, if you'd prefer. Your kitchen has fabulous features like granite countertops, designer light fixtures, flat-panel birch cabinets, and an oversized walk-in pantry! The large kitchen looks into the two-story family room that you can add a fireplace to in order to give the room that extra flair. From the family room, you also have access to your optional covered patio - perfect for backyard barbecues. Completing the first floor is the downstairs master suite that has a vaulted ceiling which adds to this home’s luxury feel. The master bathroom offers cultured marble countertops with dual vanities, a bathtub with a stand alone shower, and a huge walk-in closet. Upstairs, you will find a large gameroom that the kids will love, a captivating media room that you can turn into a fifth bedroom, and the three remaining bedrooms with the secondary bathroom beside the gameroom. The opportunities are limitless since the Dakota home offers numerous options to expand. You will never have to sacrifice comfort and flexibility with this floor plan. With the perfect amount of space, and options that the whole family can enjoy, you will definitely cherish each memory created within these walls.

About the Builder

Castlerock Communities is a single-family homebuilder operating in Texas, Arizona, and Tennessee. Founded in 2004 by Greg Yakim, Robert L. Wright, and Kirk T. Breitenwischer, the company builds detached homes in master-planned communities across the Houston, San Antonio, Austin, and Dallas markets in Texas. In August 2021, Daiwa House Industry, a Japanese global homebuilding enterprise, acquired an 80% equity interest in Castlerock for approximately $402 million, with the founding partners retaining 20% ownership and continuing to lead operations. The acquisition positioned Texas as a piece of Daiwa House's "smile zone" strategy connecting the eastern, southern, and western United States. Castlerock expanded beyond Texas in 2023 with entry into the Phoenix and Prescott areas of Arizona, followed by Tennessee in January 2024 through the acquisition of The Jones Company of Tennessee. The company delivered 1,628 homes in 2020 and generated $484.9 million in revenue that year. Castlerock focuses on first-time buyers through move-up purchasers with its Cobalt, Silver, and Gold home collections. In December 2025, Daiwa House restructured Castlerock under a new holding company, CRC Holdings, to facilitate financing, with Daiwa House now holding an 89.11% indirect ownership stake.
