Chandlers Landing, the gated lakeside community on Lake Ray Hubbard in Rockwall, is adding new for-sale townhomes for the first time in more than 30 years. Marina Village plans 36 three-story homes, with first deliveries set for June 2026, giving buyers a lock-and-leave option inside one of Rockwall's oldest lake neighborhoods.
What is Marina Village, and why is it news?
According to a January 12, 2026 release published by Blue Ribbon News, Marina Village is a gated townhome enclave inside Chandlers Landing with 36 three-story, three-bedroom homes. It is being developed by LTL Family Holdings, a family-owned firm based in Heath, with design by Craddock Architecture. Construction is underway, Phase One deliveries were scheduled to begin in June 2026, and more clusters are planned over the following 18 to 24 months.
The newsworthy part is the timeline. Chandlers Landing was established in 1974, and Marina Village was actually part of that original master plan. The last for-sale townhome addition in the community, known as Chandlers Landing No. 17, was built in the late 1980s and early 1990s. For three decades, anyone who wanted a townhome inside the gates had to wait for a resale.
What features are planned?
The release lists a finish package aimed at buyers who want low-maintenance living without giving up quality:
- Two-car garages with epoxy floors and EV charging capability
- Private decks with lake views
- White oak floors, quartz and granite counters and solid wood cabinets
- A five-burner gas range, high-efficiency 18-SEER HVAC and smart-home pre-wiring
- A 1-2-6 builder warranty covering new construction
Pricing and square footage were not included in the announcement, so buyers will need to get current figures from the project's sales team.
What does daily life in Chandlers Landing look like?
Chandlers Landing is one of Rockwall's more distinctive neighborhoods because of how much is inside the gate. A July 17, 2026 Blue Ribbon News article describing the community's revived open house tour lists:
- Marina access on Lake Ray Hubbard
- The Yacht Club and Five01 Restaurant
- Tennis courts with league play
- A 2.25-mile walking and jogging loop
- Four stocked fishing ponds, parks and a playground
- Golf-cart-friendly streets and 24-hour gated security
Students living in the community attend Rockwall ISD schools, and residents have quick access to I-30.
How do buyers tour homes in Chandlers Landing now?
The community revived its monthly open house tour in July 2026 after a hiatus. Tours are traditionally held on the third Sunday of each month, with maps available at the Guard House at 2 Commodore Plaza. At the July tour, organizers said 16 homes were on the market. Buyer representation agreements are required for individual showings, so buyers using the tour as a first look should still plan to bring an agent for follow-up visits.
Who is Marina Village likely to appeal to?
New townhomes inside an established gated lake community fill a specific gap. Our agents at The Agency Dallas who work Rockwall and the eastern shore of Lake Ray Hubbard tend to see interest from a few groups:
- Downsizers from larger Rockwall or Heath homes who want to stay near friends, the lake and familiar routines.
- Second-home buyers who want a lakeside base that is easy to lock and leave.
- Dallas professionals who want water views and a short I-30 drive into the city.
- Buyers relocating to North Texas who prefer new construction but want an established neighborhood with mature trees and amenities already in place.
How does new construction affect older Chandlers Landing resales?
New inventory inside a community gives buyers a fresh comparison point. Resale townhomes and older lake homes will be measured against Marina Village's finishes, warranty and energy efficiency. That does not mean older homes lose ground automatically. Resales often offer larger lots, established landscaping and immediate availability. But sellers in Chandlers Landing should expect buyers to ask how their home compares, and updated kitchens, systems and outdoor spaces will matter more.
For sellers, The Agency Dallas can prepare a home valuation that accounts for the new supply. Buyers weighing lakeside townhomes against high-rise living in the city may find our guide to Dallas high-rise condos a useful comparison.
What should buyers ask before reserving?
Reservation deposits for Marina Village opened January 20, 2026. Anyone considering a reservation should ask the sales team:
- Which cluster and phase the home sits in, and the realistic delivery window.
- Whether the townhome association dues are separate from the master Chandlers Landing association.
- What the lake view looks like from each level, since three-story plans vary.
- Whether marina slip access is included or handled separately.
These details often shape long-term satisfaction more than the finish package.
Frequently asked questions
How many townhomes are planned at Marina Village?
The developer plans 36 three-story, three-bedroom townhomes in a gated enclave inside Chandlers Landing. Construction was underway as of January 2026, with Phase One deliveries scheduled to begin in June 2026. Additional clusters are planned over the following 18 to 24 months, so homes will come online in stages rather than all at once.
Who is building Marina Village?
Marina Village is being developed by LTL Family Holdings LLC, a family-owned firm based in Heath that has built custom homes in Heath Crossing. Craddock Architecture designed the project. The January 2026 announcement named a separate brokerage as the exclusive listing firm, so buyers should contact that team directly for pricing and available units.
When was Chandlers Landing founded?
Chandlers Landing was established in 1974 on the shore of Lake Ray Hubbard in Rockwall. Marina Village was included in that original master plan but was never built until now. The most recent for-sale townhome addition, Chandlers Landing No. 17, dates to the late 1980s and early 1990s, which is why the new project is drawing attention.
When are Chandlers Landing open house tours?
The community's monthly open house tour returned in July 2026 and is traditionally held on the third Sunday of each month from 2 to 4 p.m. Visitors pick up maps at the Guard House at 2 Commodore Plaza. Buyer representation agreements are required for individual showings, so many buyers tour first and then return with an agent.
What schools serve Chandlers Landing?
Chandlers Landing is served by Rockwall ISD. Specific campus assignments depend on the address, so families should confirm attendance zones directly with the district before buying. Rockwall ISD has grown more slowly than projected recently, which is worth knowing for families who follow campus capacity and future boundary changes.
