From St. Louis Business Journal: McBride Homes, the St. Louis region’s largest homebuilder, is moving forward with a new residential development in Franklin County.
An entity affiliated with the company, St. Andrews Drive Development LLC, closed Nov. 21 on the purchase of 31.8 acres of vacant land in the city of Union. Terms of the purchase, from the Betty L. Griffin Trust, weren’t disclosed. Jeff Price and Scott Martin of Hilliker Corp. represented the seller.
McBride’s new development, called St. Andrews Meadows, is located near Highway 50 and St. Andrews Drive, adjacent to Veterans Memorial Park.
The new development will have 152 total home sites in two “villages,” both set to launch in February 2023:
- The Commons at St. Andrews offers floor plans from McBride’s Arbor Series with three cottage-style, two- and three-bedroom home plans.
- The Manors at St. Andrews features seven larger floor plans, with up to 2,500 square feet of space, from McBride’s Bayside Series.
Homes in The Commons are expected to start in the low $200,000 range and average in the mid-$200,000s, while homes in The Manors are expected to start in the mid-$200,000s and go up to $400,000 with customization, Jeannie Aumiller, McBride’s general counsel and senior vice president of real estate, reportedly said at a June public hearing about the development.
