Community is what Landmark Fine Homes is all about.
In days gone by, communities were built by people getting to know who their neighbors are. With everyone living in such a high tech world we have listened to our customers and decided we wanted to make a change! We have decided not only to build great homes but really focus on building great communities.
"The Springs" product line is just that. We have created these communities where people can buy great homes that range from 1600-2300 square feet MOL. These homes maybe small in size but are loaded with custom details. Granite countertops, wood floors, rustic beams- you name it! The communities are gated and offer a community clubhouse with workout room, pool, ponds, walking trails and the best part - your yards are maintained!!! We want you to be able to enjoy your life and do the things you want to do, not worry about yard work. Never fear though, if yard work is your thing, you can spend as much time as you want creating flower beds and gardens in the back yard to maintain.
The Springs at Greenleaf Trails is the first community of this kind that Landmark Fine Homes put in located in Norman, Oklahoma. To get the community started, Soup Saturday's were formed. Once a month, people that were under contract to build and those that were considering the community would gather together at the model home and get to know each other. This quickly turned into everyone asking at the end of the gathering when the next one would be. At that point we knew this was something that was greatly needed! Since the first Soup Saturday begun everything from Cooking Classes, Painting Classes and Monthly Potlucks occur. Drive through this gated community in the evenings and you will see neighbors walking together and people sitting on their porches. Winter time you will find the "younger" people in the community shoveling drive ways for the "older" ones.
How could we just stop with the one community? There is no way we could! We are at the final stages of "Kicking off " The Springs at Skyline Trails which will be located in Mustang, Oklahoma. This gated community will offer the same community clubhouse with workout room, community pool, walking trails, pond and yards maintained. Monthly Gatherings? Absolutely!
Check out the Model Home that is almost complete!
The next community will be The Springs at Valencia located in Edmond is set to begin construction in the next several months. We are excited to have this same concept available in the Edmond Area!
Does this sound like a community you would want to be a part of? Call us TODAY to get you started.
Whenever we have people come into our Model Homes, one of the most common statements we hear is, "I would NEVER build a house! I have heard it is a NIGHTMARE!"
We had the opportunity to sit down with The Teel's who have built two homes with us. Listen to what they had to say about the process:
Don't let the fear of the unknown discourage you from building a home ! Our team of professionals will guide you through the process. Landmark Fine Homes has a design studio located in Norman. It is stocked with samples of carpet, tile, countertops, hardware, brick, rock, plumbing and so much more!
If you have thought about building but are scared of the process, stop by one of our Model Homes this weekend in The Reserve at Valencia, The Preserve at Parkside, Cascata Falls, Carrington Lakes, Little River Trails, Montoro Ridge, or The Springs at Greenleaf Trails. One of our New Homes Consultant would love to talk to you about how to get started on your new home.
As the Festival of Homes approaches this week we know there will be a lot of people out looking at homes. You are going to see the latest and greatest in design from several builders.
We love our Design Team and all they do to create such beautiful environments for people to live in. They are constantly staying on top of the latest trends whether it is color, countertops, ceiling treatments, flooring or lighting. Our consistent trade partners also bring us those products that they are receiving so we can be the first ones to have them in our homes. This also allows you as a buyer to be confident that you will receive the best pricing and design there is!
We also love our Construction Team and the hard work that they put in making sure the home is energy efficient. That is what The Teel's loved about building with Landmark Fine Homes not only once but twice! Not only did they have the best design possibilities but they also had the best construction which saved them money every month on their utility bills.
Check out what they had to say:
Landmark Fine Homes has had the privilege of building 2 homes for this wonderful family. We had the opportunity to spend some time in their beautiful home in The Preserve at Parkside to catch up and find out what all they enjoyed about working with us.
We have found that many people are nervous about custom building a home. Landmark Fine Homes works hard to make sure the process is as easy as possible. Everything is broken down into steps as to not be too overwhelming for anyone.
Diana knew what she wanted when she saw it but wasn't sure how to make it come to life. That is where our Design Team came in to fill in the gaps. She was able to come into our Design Studio and work with our Team Member to make her selections. She didn't need to drive all over town to find things. She could come to our office and see it all put together.
Take a minute and listen to what all the Teels had to say about their experience!
In a world where everything has become so high tech we have noticed a growing number of people seeking ways to be in "high touch" environments. Everyone can get lost behind a computer screen, TV or phone and feel like they have a great grasp of what is going on in the world and with their "friends" but still feel like something is missing.
The fact is, there are a lot of people who can build a home. At Landmark Fine Homes, we are focused on not only building great energy efficient homes but great communities! We want to create an environment where neighbors have the opportunity to get to know each other. The kind of communities where if you go out of town you can feel confident that a neighbor will look out for your home, pick up your mail and make sure everything is good while you are away. The kind of communities where if you have a medical issue, the neighborhoods will provide meals to help fill in the gap while you are sick. The kind of communities where you can gather and watch the latest sporting event or reality TV show. The kind of communities where you can gather to learn new ways to cook or create a new craft project and the kind of community where everyone celebrates the newest baby or graduation. I mean, who wouldn't want to be a part of this?!?!?
We will be spotlighting several of our communities and the wonderful things that go on in them. This month we have chosen The Springs at Greenleaf Trails in Norman. This gated community features homes that are 1600 to about 2100 square feet. The community offers a clubhouse with workout room, saltwater pool, walking trails, a pond and one of the best features are the yards are maintained! These smaller square footage homes offer the same high end amenities that you see in our larger homes. The community has monthly potluck gatherings as well as the random nights where someone will send out the message, "Come down to the clubhouse and watch the game!"
Doesn't this sound like a community where you would love to live?
This is one of Landmark Fine Homes Best Kept Secrets that we wanted to share with everyone!
Where can you find 1/2 acre lots in the Edmond Public School district that offers a community clubhouse, pool, park, basketball courts and multiple ponds throughout? We know from our research that there are not many options. Now, try to find one of those neighborhoods with homes in the $400's!
Cascata Falls is a community you will want to check out in person. This community is located just 1.5 miles North of Waterloo off of Bryant. You will feel like you have all the benefits of country living with the luxury of having shopping, hospitals, entertainment and schools just minutes away.
Our new model home is located at 2030 Roveto Court and will be open Thursday-Monday from 1:00-6:00 pm. If those hours don't work for you just give us a call and we would love to meet you there at a time that will work for you.

In a world where companies are generally focused on the bottom line, Landmark Fine Homes has made a conscience decision to give back to the community and help organizations that are trying to make a difference. During this season at Landmark Fine Homes we are busy focusing on several different organizations.
Meg's Miracles was founded in the years following the May 20, 2013 tornado that passed through Moore, OK and the surrounding communities. Megan Billingsley Futrell and her four-month old son, Case, passed away on that day but their legacy lives on through this fund. Megan was a special education teacher at a Moore school, Highland West Jr. High, and was extremely passionate about her students. Megan wanted to ensure that each child received the best quality education and through her teaching, that is what they received. This fund strives to continue Meg’s dedication to her students by providing needed resources for students and teachers in Moore.
They are planning an Inaugural Event on April 15th at 5 pm at the Old School Business and Event Center in Moore. Check out this wonderful organization and find out how you can help.
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life is a life-changing event that gives everyone in communities across the globe a chance to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against the disease. At Relay, a member of each team is asked to be continually walking or running around a track or path because cancer never rests. This is a event that Landmark Fine Homes looks forward to participating in each year as we know everyone knows someone that has been impacted by cancer. Make plans to join our family of employees and homeowners on May 5 starting at 7 pm at the Station at Central Park in Moore. It will be a wonderful night supporting a great organization.
Imagine looking out your office window and seeing men, women and children pulling food out of your trash because they are starving. Imagine families with no place to call home and children who cannot enroll in school because they have no address. In 1983, these are the things that inspired the Food and Shelter founders to find a solution to homelessness and hunger. Food and Shelter started as a once-per-week lunch for people who were homeless and has since grown to be a fully operational soup kitchen and shelter program.
For over 30 years, Food and Shelter has been feeding women, children and men who are hungry and housing families in crisis. Food and Shelter are core components of our services and something the organization believes to be basic human rights of every individual in our community. They serve the most indigent residents of our community many of which live on little to no income.
The food program, funded by United Way of Norman, is second to none in Cleveland County. Hundreds of women, children and men rely on Food and Shelter for their daily nutrition. They serve breakfast and lunch 7 days per week to any person who is hungry. On average they serve 250 meals per day. In 2015 alone, they served over 100,000 meals. On top of this, they provide food baskets to hungry families who may have to choose between buying food and paying rent. Food is a necessity, not a privilege.
The shelter component of Food and Shelter is a multi-faceted program. They provide short term, long-term and supportive housing for individuals and families who are homeless. They own and operate a transitional housing program where families with children can live for up to 2 years with the care and support of a case manager to empower and encourage them to build stronger, healthier families. They provide housing for medically vulnerable, chronically homeless single individuals with the support of a case manager to ensure they maintain stable, healthy lifestyles. Because they do not have facilities for emergency shelter, they provide families who are homeless emergency placement through motel stays. The prevention program is a new and unique strategy in tackling homelessness. By avoiding homelessness, we save our community money and reduce the trauma moms, dads and children experience with homelessness.
Landmark Fine Homes has been given the opportunity to help expand the campus with a completely new kitchen and dining room, additional office space and 32 beautifully crafted homes for women, children and men who are experiencing homelessness. The new location will be completed in 2017.

We are so excited to introduce the newest floor plan to The Springs at Green Leaf Trails- The Maverick!

This wonderful gated community offers a community clubhouse with workout room and pool, a pond with catch and release fishing, walking trails, a butterfly garden and yards maintained. The community is geared toward active adults although there is no age restriction. One of the best features of this community is that is offers monthly gatherings.

The Maverick floor plan offers that open concept kitchen, living and breakfast area that so many people are wanting. The benefit to this plan is that we have tucked in a study next to this area.
