What did 111 Vaughn Meadows Dr offer?
| Feature | Details (as featured in early 2025) |

The open plan made the kitchen the center of the house, which is exactly how most people actually live. Four bedrooms gave room for guests, hobbies, or a dedicated home office, and the landscaped yard had space for a garden or play area. Because it was newly built, the energy-efficient windows and insulation were a plus for Texas summers.

What should you know before buying new construction?
- Get an inspection anyway. New homes can still have issues; a third-party inspection is worth it.
- Ask about the builder warranty and what it covers, for how long.
- Check utilities. Outside town limits, some homes use septic; know what you're getting.
- Bring your own agent. Having representation on a new build is usually free to you and can help with negotiations. See our builder incentives post for examples.
