Developer Kevin Nguyen has sold 39 vacant lots on Tiger Bend Road near the intersection of Jefferson Highway for more than $1.85 million to DSLD Homes, which plans to begin building homes within the next month or so.
“We plan on getting started just as soon as we can get permits,” says DSLD Homes partner Jeff Purpera. “It will probably take 30 days get the permits and get started, and then another three to four months to construct the homes. Once we get started, I think it will probably be about 12 months in and out.”
The subdivision will be called Tiger Trace, and it will be located next to the Hickory Ridge subdivision. Homes within will measure anywhere from 1,800 to 2,300 square feet and they’ll be sold for between $200,000 and $240,000, Purpera says.
The zero-lot line homes will have smaller yards than a typical subdivision home, measuring about 45-by-110 feet, says Nguyen. The entire 39-home subdivision will be located on about six acres of land.
“They’re perfect for people who want to own a house and have a private space, but don’t want a big yard to maintain,” Nguyen says. “There’s still enough space for a nice courtyard with landscaping around it. The subdivision is in a really good area, not far from Woman’s Hospital, so there’s a lot of medical professionals in the area and these would be great homes for them.”
