Find a family-friendly community in Ennis or Terrell
The Dallas-Fort Worth area is teeming with exceptional small-town suburbs, and Riverside Homebuilders has scouted out some of the best to build our newest communities in. Just a short drive out of the city you’ll find Ennis and Terrell, both towns of around 18,000 people bursting with historic charm, in-demand amenities and brand new Riverside homes.
Living in Ennis
As the “Official Texas Bluebonnet City”, you can’t get more Texan than Ennis. What started as a railroad and agricultural hub has developed into a dynamic town that embraces its historic past and celebrates the people who call it home. Ennis is known in the area for its eclectic offerings and events, including hosting the hugely popular National Polka Festival every year. Residents and visitors are drawn to the lovingly maintained historic district, miles of walking trails and one of 18 operating drive-in theaters in the state. There’s truly something for everyone in Ennis, and that’s why so many families have chosen to plant their roots here.
With new construction, single-family houses starting in the mid $200s and offering multiple floor plan options, Riverside Homebuilders brought their fine craftsmanship, upgraded standard features and unique design details to the community. Each ranch-style home will greet you with an expansive open floor plan and impressive, high-quality finishes. Two-car garages, oversized kitchen islands and covered back patios are included with every build.
Living in Terrell
Terrell, much like Ennis, was founded as a railroad hub and has since developed into a lively town with friendly residents, unique culture and great schools. There’s plenty to do just minutes from your front door, including a historic downtown featuring family-owned restaurants, antique shops and beautiful murals painted by local artists. During World War II, the number-one British Flying Training School was located in Terrell and now serves as a museum—which, in partnership with the city, hosts a World War II veterans reunion every year. This event draws attendees from all over the world and presents numerous attractions like vintage aircraft shows, flight simulators, documentaries and other family-friendly activities.
Just outside Terrell in the small community of Oak Ridge, Riverside Homebuilders wanted to build classic, quality homes—after selecting the perfect spot, the Oak Valley community was born. Choose from a selection of smart, stylish floor plans starting at 2,000 square feet. As one of our newest developments, buyers can get in on the ground floor to choose a home that will meet all of your family’s needs and create a community you will love for years to come.
If you’re looking for a new home outside of Dallas, Riverside Homebuilders can help you find the perfect one. Whether you’re drawn to Ennis, Terrell or another community in the area, we can walk you through the process and help you get started today. Contact us for more information.

I really enjoyed working with Riverside Homebuilders last summer, and I wish I had been able to sell my current home and move into the beautiful Riverside home I had chosen.
