District Highlights

Located at the Southwest Corner of Preston Road and Ownsby Parkway, The Village at Ownsby Farms is a 40-acre destination retail district that serves as the western bookend to South Celina’s major commercial node. While the eastern side (The Crossing at Moore Farm) focuses on home improvement and fitness, The Village is anchored by high-volume destination retail, most notably Celina’s first Costco Wholesale. The district is designed with a “power center” layout, featuring large-format anchors in the rear and a dense lineup of premium fast-casual dining on the pad sites.
