Welcome to The Sparrow II – A New Model Home in The Canopies, Splendora, TX

We are thrilled to introduce The Sparrow II, our newest model home in the Houston Division, nestled within The Canopies—a premier master-planned community in Splendora, TX.

Montgomery County is one of the fastest-growing counties in the U.S., and Splendora is one of the newest cities in the county to begin the transformation. Once a quiet rural area, it is blending into the thriving hub of new opportunities, in nearby cities like The Woodlands and Kingwood.
