New Homes in North Fort Worth from Under $400k

Located just north of Fort Worth and within the rapidly growing Northwest Independent School District, Justin offers a unique “small-town” feel without sacrificing accessibility. For a homebuyer looking at the long-term value of their investment, this area represents a strong growth corridor.

Residents at Treeline enjoy easy access to major employment hubs in North Fort Worth, Westlake, Roanoke and AllianceTexas, as well as a straightforward commute to DFW International Airport. Young professionals, empty nesters, and families looking for room to grow find Justin a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle that still offers shopping, dining, and entertainment within easy reach.

Perhaps most importantly, Treeline is one of the few places in the region where you can still find new homes in DFW under $400k within a high-end planned community setting. Here, affordability doesn’t mean compromising on the quality of the neighborhood or the beauty of the surroundings.

Why choose Treeline? Our community isn’t just a place to live; it’s thoughtfully designed to help you unplug from the pace of everyday life and reconnect with what matters most.

The community celebrates its native environment, leaning into the mature oak trees and the meandering Trail Creek that winds through the land. The vision for Treeline is rooted in community, designed to help every homeowner deepen their connection with both the outdoors and their neighbors.

A central part of this vision is the Lifestyle by Hillwood℠ approach. Our full time, on-site Lifestyle Manager curates events and gatherings throughout the year. From holiday festivals to fitness classes to neighborhood clubs, hosting community events that turn neighbors into lifelong friends is at the heart of Treeline’s lifestyle program.

Treeline also offers confidence and choice when it comes to your home. Built by a collection of eight trusted, reputable builders, the community features a variety of home sizes, architectural styles, and price points—making it easier to find a home that fits both your lifestyle and your budget.

At Treeline, we’ve partnered with eight of the region’s top builders: American Legend Homes, Beazer Homes, David Weekley Homes, D.R. Horton, Highland Homes, HistoryMaker Homes, Pulte Homes, and Tri Pointe Homes.

How long does it typically take to build a new home at Treeline?

The timeline varies by builder and the specific home design you choose. Generally, the process takes between six and nine months from the time you select your lot and floorplan. For those on a tighter timeline, we often have move-in-ready homes near Fort Worth available.

Can I work with my own real estate agent when buying at Treeline?

Absolutely. We welcome real estate professionals and encourage you to bring your agent along when you visit our model homes. Be sure to let the builder’s representative know during your visit that you are working with a real estate agent.

What kind of customization is possible on a new home?

While these are not custom homes built from scratch, there are a variety of options that will make your home feel like yours. A homebuyer at Treeline can choose a lot and then select a home design from the builder’s portfolio that fits that lot perfectly. Conversely, you can choose your favorite home design first and then pick an available lot where that home can be built. You’ll also work with the builder to select a curated palette of finishes, cabinetry, flooring, and colors, then add optional upgrades to make the home uniquely yours.

From the moment you enter our community and journey across Trail Creek on our wood-covered bridge, you’ll feel the difference. There’s a tranquility here and a sense of belonging that you won’t find anywhere else.

We invite you to come and discover the enchanting Treeline by Hillwood, where good land and good people make a good place. All of our model homes from our eight premier builders are open and ready for your visit.
