A gated luxury community of custom homes on one-acre lots, set among rolling hills and tranquil ponds, minutes from historic downtown Celina. Prosper-level luxury, without the crowds.
A new, low-density enclave of custom estate homes on acre-plus lots. Reach out for current availability.
Harper Estates is for the buyer who wants a true custom home on real land, but does not want to be the only house on a lonely road. It threads a needle that very few communities manage: the privacy and space of acreage, inside a gated, intentional community of like-minded neighbors. The result feels less like a subdivision and more like a private enclave.
Developed by Centurion American in partnership with Olivia Clarke Homes, the community spans about 100 acres with just 76 homesites, each roughly an acre. The land does a lot of the work here: rolling hills, mature topography, and tranquil ponds give it a settled, estate-like character that newer flat-field developments simply cannot replicate. Homes sit well apart from one another, with expansive backyards and four-car garages as the standard, not the exception.
The homes themselves are genuinely custom, built by a short list of respected builders, in both single-story and two-story designs with high-end finishes throughout. With only 76 lots, this is a finite, exclusive community; when it is built out, it is built out. That scarcity is part of the appeal for buyers who want something that will not be repeated six streets over.
And the location quietly delivers. You are minutes from historic downtown Celina, centrally positioned between downtown and Weston Square, and less than two miles from the outer loop, with Allen Premium Outlets and Fields West a short drive away. It is the rare combination of genuine seclusion and real convenience, which is exactly what "luxury without the crowds" is supposed to mean.
Harper Estates is not an amenity-arms-race community, and that is the point. Instead of a lagoon and a fitness center, the draw is space, seclusion, and a gated setting where every home sits on roughly an acre of rolling, pond-dotted Celina land.
Generous homesites of roughly an acre give you room for a pool, a casita, a shop, or sweeping outdoor living, with real distance from your neighbors.
A gated entrance and just 76 homesites mean privacy, security, and a quiet, exclusive feel you cannot get in a large open master-plan.
Picturesque rolling topography and tranquil ponds throughout the community give Harper Estates a settled, estate-like character.

Here is the honest version. If you see yourself on the left, this community will feel like home. If you see yourself on the right, I have other neighborhoods that will serve you better.
"Harper Estates is where I send buyers who want the acre and the custom home but do not want to feel isolated doing it. The gate, the ponds, the rolling lots, it feels private and special without being out in the middle of nowhere. With only 76 homesites and three custom builders, the details matter: which lot, which builder, which floor plan. That is exactly the kind of decision I love helping clients get right, because here you are building something that will not be repeated down the street."
Harper Estates is a luxury custom community, so pricing generally runs from around $1.1 million into the high $1.9Ms, depending on the builder, the floor plan, the lot, and how the home is finished. With only 76 homesites and three custom builders, no two homes are quite alike, so a single median tells you very little.
