📰About Sanford Farms Ph 2 Sec 3, 4 & 5 Landscape Improv.
Meritage Homes of Texas LLC is executing a $1,500,000 landscape improvement project at Sanford Farms Ph 2 Sec 3, 4 & 5 in Waller, Texas. The site, located at the intersection of Betka Rd. and Pecan Prickly Pear Dr., covers 880,000 square feet of new construction ground. TDLR completed plan review in August 2026, and the project is scheduled to finish in January 2027, with work starting September 2026.
The scope of work focuses on site amenities and green infrastructure. The filing lists sidewalks, site furnishings, irrigation systems, general landscape installation, hydroseeding, and solid sod. This comprehensive approach ensures the residential sections are fully landscaped and accessible upon completion. The design firm of record is KGA DeForest Design, which has handled six other TDLR-registered projects in the area.
Project Scale and Cost Context
At 880,000 square feet, this project is significantly larger than the median new construction filing in Harris County, which is 9,000 square feet. The estimated cost of $1,500,000 is above the county median of $750,000 for similar filings. However, the cost per square foot is $2, which is well below the county median of $88 per square foot. This discrepancy reflects the nature of landscape work, which covers vast areas with lower material costs per unit than structural construction.
The scheduled build window is 123 days, shorter than the county median of 219 days. This efficient timeline is typical for landscape improvements that do not require extensive structural framing. This classification simplifies drainage and grading requirements compared to sites within regulated flood zones.
Local Context and Ownership
Meritage Homes of Texas LLC has two other TDLR-registered projects totaling $3,700,000. These include the Sandford Farms Community Center in Hockley and a Rec Center in Conroe. The ZIP code 77484 has a population of about 13,772 and a median household income of $71,446. The area is primarily owner-occupied, with a median home value of $243,400. This project supports the residential growth in this Harris County suburb.
