Churchill Farms

Churchill Farms sits in that stretch of west Katy that feels quietly confident about where it landed. It carries a Fulshear mailing address, which still throws people off, but once you drive it, the location makes sense. Building began in 2012 and moved quickly once the first sections were underway. By the time construction wrapped up, the neighborhood had grown to roughly 570 homes.

There are no future phases waiting in the wings. What exists today is the finished product, and that gives the community a more settled feel than newer areas still surrounded by dirt and barricades. Homes here were built by Beazer Homes and Taylor Morrison, and the construction window stayed fairly tight. Because of that, the architectural style feels consistent.

Mostly traditional designs, a mix of one and two story homes, and floorplans that were clearly aimed at long term living, not quick turnover. Savvy homebuyers tend to notice how neighborhoods age, and Churchill Farms has aged gracefully. The trees have grown in. The streets look lived in, but not tired. It feels complete, which matters more than most people expect.

The neighborhood itself is centered around a three acre lake with walking trails, a resort style pool, and a playground. It is not flashy, and it does not try to be. That restraint works. There is enough green space to get outside without feeling like you need to leave the neighborhood, and enough separation between sections that it does not feel crowded.

On quiet evenings, it is the kind of place where people actually walk the trails, not just talk about them.

Location is where Churchill Farms really starts to make its case. Positioned along FM 1463, you are roughly split between Interstate 10 and the Westpark Tollroad. That puts shopping, dining, and everyday errands within easy reach.

LaCenterra, grocery stores, Katy Mills, and newer retail corridors are all just a short drive away. Old Town Katy and Old Town Fulshear are close enough for a casual dinner or weekend stop. You are near plenty, but not surrounded by it, which I think is the balance a lot of people are quietly looking for.

The area surrounding Churchill Farms has changed quite a bit over the last decade. When the community first started building out, the immediate surroundings were still fairly quiet. Now there are far more shopping centers, restaurants, and everyday conveniences within a short drive. Residents often visit the FM-1463 and FM-1093 corridor where new retail continues to expand.

Just a few minutes east you will find LaCenterra at Cinco Ranch, one of the most popular destinations in the Katy area. It offers a mix of restaurants, boutique shopping, coffee spots, and entertainment. On a nice evening it is pretty common to see families walking around the plaza, catching a show at Discovery Green or grabbing dinner before heading home.

Heading west toward Fulshear brings another set of options that continue to grow each year. Local favorites, casual restaurants, and small businesses have started to cluster along FM-359 and FM-1093. For many Cardiff Ranch residents, that stretch has become the go to place for quick dinners, coffee runs, or weekend errands without having to drive all the way into central Katy.

Churchill Farms may be smaller by Katy area standards, but it does not feel short on features. The neighborhood delivers many of the same amenities buyers expect from much larger master planned communities, just without the congestion. Streets feel calm, homes feel connected, and daily life moves at a slower pace that many residents prefer. The centerpiece of the community is a scenic three acre lake with walking trails that loop through the neighborhood.

This area anchors daily activity, whether you are taking an evening walk, pushing a stroller, or letting the kids burn off energy. Nearby, the resort style community pool and playground create a natural gathering spot during warmer months and give residents a place to connect without ever leaving the neighborhood. You’ll also find a large sports field complete with soccer goals – it’s the perfect place for games, picnics and large family outings or holiday celebrations.

Mature trees, established landscaping, and generous greenspaces give Churchill Farms a lived in feel that newer developments often lack. Open areas throughout the community provide room to play, relax, and enjoy the outdoors. Tennis courts, basketball courts, and a picnic pavillion offer additional recreation for residents and sit just a short walk away, adding even more convenience for active households looking to find ways to spend more time outdoors.

Homes in Churchill Farms receive their annual property tax assessments from the Fort Bend County Appraisal District. The total tax rate consists of several different taxing entities, which can vary depending on the part of the community where you live.

These rates typically apply to the school district, MUD district, and county or city services, but they can vary based on the specific section.

As of the time of this writing (January 2026), the average property tax rate for homes in the neighborhood is 2.43%. Just as with every home in the Katy and Fulshear areas, and Texas for that matter, these rates apply to every $100 of a home’s valuation. The current average sales price is $518,000, which we’ll use to map out how property taxes work. To understand how that plays out, that $518,000 home could expect to pay $12,587 / year in property taxes:

$518,000 / $100 = $5,180 x 2.43 = $12,587.

This of course does not take into account homestead, over 65, and other tax exemptions that offer considerable tax savings. Read more about how property taxes work in our area. As of the time of this writing, the annual HOA Dues here are $840. Homeowners in the Katy area typically consider these dues very reasonable, especially given the community’s size and amenities.

Homes in the Churchill Farms community range from about 1,800 square feet to more than 5,500 square feet. Recent resale prices typically fall between about $360,000 and just over $620,000. Development in the neighborhood is complete, so there are no remaining new construction opportunities.

Lot sizes generally range from about 5,900 square feet to nearly 17,000 square feet. Buyers will find a mix of single story and two story homes, along with some desirable waterfront properties. The community was built primarily by Beazer Homes and Taylor Morrison.

Churchill Farms sits along FM 1463 between I 10 and the Westpark Tollway, providing convenient access to shopping, dining, entertainment, parks, and schools. Residents also enjoy quick trips to both Old Town Katy and Old Town Fulshear, where community events and local services are easy to reach.
