MOSAIC in Celina: New Homes in Prosper ISD’s Newest Master-Planned Community
MOSAIC: A Fresh Chapter for Prosper ISD Living in Celina
If you’ve driven north on the Dallas North Tollway lately, you’ve probably noticed new communities taking shape around Celina and Prosper. One of the newest and most talked-about additions is MOSAIC, a 760-acre master-planned development by Tellus Group, the same developer behind nearby Windsong Ranch in Prosper.
Construction began in 2024, and as of late 2025, most builders are completing the initial phase of development, with future phases expected to unfold through the late 2020s as the community grows. The result is a neighborhood that still feels new and full of opportunity but already offers the amenities and infrastructure of an established area.
Location and Access
MOSAIC sits in a prime pocket of Celina, just 1 mile from the Dallas North Tollway and 3 miles from U.S. 380, giving residents quick access to major employment and shopping corridors throughout North Dallas.
Approximate distances from the community:
DFW Airport: 35 miles
Love Field: 36 miles
Downtown Dallas: 39 miles
I-35E (Lewisville): 26 miles
It’s close enough to Frisco, Prosper, and Plano for an easy commute yet far enough north to capture Celina’s quieter, more open feel.
Prosper ISD Schools
One of the biggest draws for MOSAIC buyers is its Prosper ISD zoning. The schools serving the community are:
V.W. Smothermon Elementary (on-site)
Moseley Middle School (~2.1 miles)
Richland High School (~3.9 miles)
Bus service is provided for the middle and high schools, and many elementary students can walk or bike once surrounding streets are complete. For families focused on education, the ability to buy into Prosper ISD within Celina city limits is a major advantage.
Builders and Home Styles
Six builders are currently active in MOSAIC, offering a wide range of home types and price points:
Highland Homes – 50′, 60′, and 70′ lots, high $800s to $1.4 million
American Legend Homes – 40′ to 60′ lots, high $600s to low $1 millions
Perry Homes – mid $700s to mid $900s
Tradition Homes – 70′ lots in the low $1 millions
Bloomfield Homes – Signature Series homes ≈ $630s to $770s
Cadence Homes and Drees Homes – townhome products only
Lot sizes range from 40′ to 70′, letting buyers choose between low-maintenance convenience and larger, estate-style spaces. Each builder brings its own architectural flavor—from modern farmhouse to classic brick—but the overall look of MOSAIC remains cohesive and upscale without feeling repetitive.
Amenities and Outdoor Living
Tellus Group’s design philosophy emphasizes walkability and open space, and MOSAIC follows suit. The developer’s “Greenway Connections” concept ensures every home is within a five-minute walk of a park or trail.
Community highlights include:
A brand-new amenity center anchored by a lazy river–style pool complex, with plans for an additional pool area as the community expands.
More than 100 acres of parks and green spaces
Fishing lakes with piers
Bike and walking trails, sand volleyball court, and neighborhood firepits
Once fully developed, MOSAIC will feature over 1,700 homes (including townhomes) and roughly 600 acres of residential space interlaced with 100 acres of open land—a thoughtful balance between homes and nature.
HOA, Taxes, and PID
For planning purposes, HOA dues are currently $148 per month for single-family homes and $438 per month for townhomes. The HOA maintains all common areas and amenities.
The total property-tax rate is approximately 2.04 percent, and the community is subject to Public Improvement District (PID) assessments that fund roads, utilities, and parks. Specific PID amounts vary by lot type and builder and are typically included in annual property-tax bills.
Lifestyle and Community Feel
MOSAIC positions itself as an upscale, family-oriented neighborhood. With Prosper ISD schools, premium builders, and resort-style amenities, it attracts a mix of professionals, families, and empty-nesters looking for quality construction and a strong sense of community.
At the same time, the inclusion of townhome options and smaller-lot homes allows for more accessible price points without sacrificing location or school quality—something increasingly rare in this part of Collin County.
I’ve toured the community myself, and it’s clear the developer is aiming for a lifestyle that blends convenience, recreation, and design. You see families walking dogs, golf carts zipping to the amenity center, and kids fishing at one of the lakes—the kind of everyday energy that makes a master-planned community feel alive even in its early stages.
Why Buyers Should Have MOSAIC on Their List
Celina continues to lead North Texas in new-home growth, and MOSAIC’s combination of location, schools, and amenities makes it one of the most balanced choices in the area. It offers:
Prosper ISD schools within Celina city limits
Quick access to the Tollway and U.S. 380
A range of price points from the $600s to $1.4 million
Resort-style recreation and open space
A developer with a proven track record in Windsong Ranch
For buyers who want to be early in a thoughtfully planned community with long-term upside, MOSAIC deserves a look.
Final Thoughts
New phases are expected to open in 2026, bringing additional builder options and homesites. If you’re considering a move to Prosper ISD or looking for a new construction home in north Collin County, MOSAIC offers an ideal blend of lifestyle and investment potential.

Home Buyer’s Guide to Celina, Texas (2025 Edition)
Why Celina Is on Everyone’s Radar
If you’ve spent any time in North Texas lately, you’ve probably heard people talking about Celina. Once a small rural community, Celina has become one of the fastest-growing cities in Collin and Denton counties. What’s drawing people here is a unique blend of small-town charm and rapid growth — the kind that still feels personal, yet full of opportunity.
I’ve lived in Prosper for years and have watched Celina expand from quiet farmland into a thriving community of new neighborhoods, schools, and local businesses. With the Dallas North Tollway extension pushing further north and more amenities arriving every quarter, it’s clear Celina’s growth story is just getting started.
Celina’s Housing Market in 2025
According to recent MLS data, the median home price in Celina’s 75009 ZIP code was about $552,500 in September 2025, compared to $628,000 a year earlier. That might sound like a drop, but it’s not due to falling values — it’s because so many new developments are now offering more affordable homes in central and northern Celina. Builders have recognized demand for moderately priced single-family homes, and the numbers reflect that shift.
Closer to Prosper (ZIP 75078), prices climb again as you move south. The farther north you go, the more attainable options become — giving buyers more flexibility based on budget and commute preferences.
In 76227, which covers parts of west Prosper and southwest Celina, the median home price jumped from $405,000 in 2024 to $584,000 in 2025. That big swing is largely due to a few new higher-end developments and the fact that this ZIP has far fewer transactions, so a handful of sales can move the median.
Homes overall are sitting longer before selling — 154 days on market in 75009 (up from 84) and 137 days in 76227 (up from 27). This tells me buyers have more time to compare options and negotiate, while sellers need to price realistically to stay competitive.
New Communities Driving Growth
One of the biggest stories in Celina right now is new construction. The city is adding rooftops at an incredible pace, and each master-planned community (both new & existing) brings its own feel and amenities.
Light Farms – A well-established favorite, technically in Celina but zoned to Prosper ISD. Known for resort-style pools, trails, and an active community calendar.
Mustang Lakes – Upscale and beautifully landscaped, also in Prosper ISD, featuring an on-site clubhouse, tennis courts, and lakes throughout.
MOSAIC – One of the newer additions in Prosper ISD, designed with lifestyle in mind — think contemporary homes, community spaces, and strong school access.
Legacy Hills – In Celina ISD, this is one of the largest planned developments in North Texas, with golf, retail, and parks all built into its long-term vision.
Each of these communities caters to a slightly different buyer, but all share the same appeal: great schools, thoughtful design, and that “North Texas next chapter” vibe that’s attracting families and professionals from across DFW.
Parks, Trails, and the Celina Lifestyle
Celina is making a major investment in outdoor living. The city’s comprehensive plan calls for more than 600 acres of parks and recreation areas once fully built out — and nearly 200 acres are already complete or under development.
Old Celina Park remains the community’s centerpiece for sports and family events, but new pocket parks, hike-and-bike trails, and greenbelts are spreading throughout the new neighborhoods. It’s one of those rare suburbs where developers and the city seem genuinely aligned on keeping open space part of the plan.
Add in the downtown square’s growing restaurant scene, family events like Cajun Fest and the Friday Night Market, and you’ve got a city that’s balancing small-town roots with big-city energy.
Schools and Education
When buyers talk about Celina, schools almost always come up first. The area is split between Celina ISD and Prosper ISD, and both are well regarded. Celina ISD has been expanding rapidly with new campuses to serve its northern growth, while Prosper ISD continues to attract families looking for strong academics and extracurriculars.
If schools are a deciding factor for you, it’s worth checking exact attendance zones before making an offer — even within a single development, lines can shift as new schools open.
Why Buyers Are Choosing Celina Now
In short: value, space, and community. Celina still offers more square footage and larger lots for the money than most suburbs farther south. Combine that with strong schools, brand-new homes, and an ever-expanding list of amenities, and you can see why it’s on nearly every relocation radar in North Texas.
As someone who’s spent years analyzing market trends — and now helps clients find their perfect home through Richer Texas Realty — I see Celina as one of the few places where growth still feels exciting rather than overwhelming. It’s new but not impersonal, expanding but still welcoming.
Final Thoughts
If you’re thinking about buying a home in Celina, 2025 might be the ideal time to explore your options. With more inventory, a mix of price points, and steady long-term demand, buyers have a real opportunity to find the right fit before the next wave of growth pushes further north.
