The Signorelli Co., a development company headquartered in The Woodlands, broke ground at the master-planned community of Chapel Run in Conroe on Aug. 31, according to a Sept. 7 press release from the company. The community is located off McCaleb Road just south of Hwy. 105 and is less than a mile from Lake Conroe.

“The community offers an unparalleled location with a relaxing setting just minutes from downtown Conroe and The Woodlands.” said Jeff Dewese, senior vice president of land for The Signorelli Co., in the release. “This is an ideal community for those who want to be close enough to the lake without having to incur the associated lakefront living costs.”

The 157-acre community will feature 600 single-family homes on 40-foot-wide homesites, the release said. Home prices are estimated to begin at the $200,000s.

Phase 1 builders include Ashton Woods, a homebuilder headquartered in Atlanta, and Rausch Coleman, a builder based in Arkansas, the release said.
