Firethorne: Hometown
Charm Where the Milkman Still Delivers Milk to Your
Door
Remember
when the milkman delivered milk to your very door?
At Firethorne, West
Houston’s newest master-designed community, he still does! In fact,
the community has arranged for a local milkman to deliver a free gallon of
organic
milk to each resident's door every week for the first six months the
family lives there.
"It's our way of being neighborly and
introducing our residents to Firethorne's hometown
charm," said Firethorne General Manager Wayne
Meyer. He noted that upon move-in, new residents also receive a fresh-from-the-oven
homemade pie from the legendary John & Ann's Pie Shoppe of Katy.
According
to Meyer, after a Firethorne homeowner moves in, all they have to do
is give the milkman a call. The milkman will answer
any questions
about the milk
and other products he has to offer (fresh dairy products, fresh meats
and produce) and can explain how and when delivery
is made.
Firethorne is a 1,400-acre residential development
designed to carefully combine the vibrancy of West
Houston with the small-town charm of Katy/Fulshear.
Strategically
located on FM 1463 near the crossroads of the 1-10 West corridor, the
Westpark Tollway and the Grand Parkway, Firethorne will provide convenient
access
to the region's foremost mobility plan for exploring Houston.
Currently
there are more than 25 homes under construction
at Firethorne, with model homes scheduled for completion
by year-end. Some of the
Houston area's
most respected builders -- Coventry Homes, David Powers, David Weekley,
Perry Homes and Plantation Homes – comprise the Firethorne
builder team. They were selected based upon the highest standards
for design,
quality, customer
satisfaction and reputation. Visit the Builders
page for links to their websites.
Firethorne, named for a resilient evergreen
indigenous to the Texas prairie, blends with the best nature has
to offer: a sparkling blue
scenic lake,
150 acres devoted to parks and recreational amenities highlighted
by the 12-acre
lake with

discovery-rich wildlife observation area, a natural bird habitat
and more. Family amenities

fields, tennis courts, a competitive swim center, plus a neighborhood
Community
Center with
a meeting room and fully equipped fitness facility.
With opportunities
for nature discovery all around, plus being located
in the acclaimed Katy Independent School District
(KISD),
Firethorne
is rooted
in
the spirit of learning. KISD, one of only 14 large districts
in Texas to earn the "Recognized" distinction,
offers unparalleled academic and extra-curricular programs. University
of Houston System at Cinco Ranch and the new Cinco Ranch Branch
Library are just minutes
away.
