Choose the Location for Your Texas Timber Frame Home
Where do you see your Texas dream home? Each of the state’s seven natural regions has its own unique history, landscape and opportunities to enjoy the good life.
Big Bend Country
This remote region in West Texas, alongside the Rio Grande River, is home to Big Bend National Park. Dramatic rock formations, large canyons and expansive deserts are joined by abandoned mining camps, old forts and historic towns.
Gulf Coast
If you build along the 600-mile Gulf Coast, you’ll be protected by barrier islands that reach from South Padre Island to Galveston. This birder haven is close to the bustling metropolis of Houston.
Hill Country
This region is so-named because of its rolling countryside. Hill Country features many “dude ranches” and wineries. Towns include Sonora, Fredericksburg and San Marcos—and the city of Austin.
Panhandle Plains
In northwestern Texas, Panhandle Plains has Palo Duro Canyon, the nation’s second largest. In the city of Amarillo, farming and ranching are the key industries. Other cities are Abilene and Lubbock.
Piney Woods
Enjoy this idyllic landscape of forests, streams, luxuriant meadows and historic towns. The region boasts four national forests, including Big Thicket National Preserve.
Prairies and Lakes
In addition to Dallas/Fort Worth, for those who enjoy a robust nightlife and world-class culture and cuisine, this area includes small quaint bed and breakfasts plus forests, freshwater lakes—and Dinosaur Valley State Park.
South Texas Plains
From San Antonio to the Rio Grande River, the South Texas Plains has a lot to offer for history buffs, with The Alamo and Mission Trail in San Antonio. You can choose from desert terrain or rolling hillsides.
