When the Villages of Hurricane Creek development was designed, the goal was not only to build charming homes, but also to create a place where homeowners could come together to form friendships and lasting memories.

The Villages of Hurricane Creek, Anna's newest master-planned community, is located off Highway 75 & FM 455. This community will include over 984 single-family units, four hundred multi-family units, and a collection of garden homes and townhomes. Only 25 minutes from Downtown Dallas, this prime location in a key area of suburban growth, excellent onsite amenities, and the highly ranked Anna ISD make this community well-suited for families and those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, yet still being close enough for an easy commute. Upon completion, The Villages of Hurricane Creek will include green space and a variety of creeks, ponds, trails, open space, lookouts, and park areas. Anticipated commercial inclusions include restaurants, retail, and a hotel - the first in Anna.

The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members. The developer, Centurion American Development Group, had a vision and wanted to create a community that residents would cultivate a sense of belonging. Centurion works closely with local municipalities, commercial developers, and public-school systems as part of the overall master plan. Their established relationships with the area’s top builders allow them to implement the latest design concepts ranging from upscale, luxury homes in secluded neighborhoods to affordable housing communities for first-time home buyers.

One of the builders in the Villages of Hurricane Creek, First Texas Homes, is a true leader in the industry and is no stranger to success. They distinguished themselves through solid commitment to excellence, quality, and total customer satisfaction.
