Building with Chesmar Homes in DFW? Learn which upgrades offer the most impact on lifestyle and resale value when buying in communities across Frisco, Celina, and Prosper. Smart customization leads to better comfort, stronger value, and fewer regrets.
Chesmar Homes has built a strong reputation for delivering quality craftsmanship at accessible luxury price points in communities across North Texas. With neighborhoods in and around Frisco, Celina, and Prosper, Chesmar is a popular choice for buyers looking to build a new home in master-planned communities like The Grove, Light Farms, and Green Meadows.
As a REALTOR® who specializes in Chesmar’s new builds, I guide buyers on which structural options, interior upgrades, and smart features offer the best balance of function, style, and resale appeal.
Popular Chesmar Communities in North Dallas
Community | City | Typical Price Range | Lot Sizes |
The Grove | Frisco | $700K–$1M+ | 55', 65' |
Green Meadows | Celina | $500K–$800K+ | 50', 60' |
Light Farms | Celina | $600K–$900K+ | 60' |
Mustang Lakes | Celina | $700K–$1M+ | 60', 70' |
Structural Upgrades to Select at Contract
Some upgrades must be decided before framing begins. These have a lasting impact on value and functionality.
3-car garage or tandem garage layout
Extended patio with outdoor fireplace
Bay windows in primary suite or breakfast nook
Media room or flex space additions
Upgraded elevation with stone or brick façade
Tip: Opting for an upgraded elevation not only enhances curb appeal—it helps your home stand out in resale photos.
Kitchen & Living Room Upgrades That Impress
Chesmar includes decent standard features, but luxury buyers should enhance key areas for maximum appeal.
Kitchen
Quartz countertops with waterfall edge option
Built-in double ovens and gas cooktop
Extended cabinetry with glass doors and LED lighting
Large single-basin farmhouse or apron sink
Custom vent hood with backsplash feature wall
Living Room
Cathedral ceiling with wood beams (in select plans)
Stone or tile fireplace surround to ceiling
Engineered hardwood or wide-plank flooring
Eight-foot doors and upgraded trim package
Primary Suite & Bath Enhancements
Create a resort-style experience at home with smart investments in your owner’s suite.
Freestanding soaking tub and oversized walk-in shower
Rain shower head and dual vanities with upgraded counters
Custom closet system with shoe racks and drawers
Additional soundproofing between primary suite and living areas
Smart Technology & Efficiency Upgrades
Chesmar includes several energy-efficient features as part of their “Built by Chesmar” standard—but you can upgrade further:
Whole-home WiFi prewire with mesh router locations
Smart thermostats and smart door locks
EV charger outlet in garage
Foam insulation and low-E windows
Tankless water heater (verify per plan)
Upgrades to Be Strategic About
Avoid overspending on options that don’t provide lasting value:
Too much trendy tile (bold colors or patterns that may date quickly)
Unnecessary built-ins in secondary bedrooms
Tech bundles that don’t match your ecosystem (Apple vs Google vs Alexa)
Buyer Tip: Prioritize Layout Over Cosmetics
You can always change flooring or paint, but you can't move a load-bearing wall or rotate the kitchen island. Choose a floor plan that fits your lifestyle from the beginning—even if it means cutting a few flashy features.
From the Expert:
“Chesmar is one of the few builders that blends affordability with semi-custom options in top DFW communities. The key is knowing how to customize smart—not just flashy—and making selections that support how you live and what future buyers will love.”— Nitin Gupta, CRS, GRI, REALTOR®
