Cobalt Homes Wins Two BUILD Magazine 2026 Real Estate & Property Awards

Dallas-Based Homebuilder Recognized for Luxury Urban Townhome Development and Residential Design Excellence
DALLAS, Texas — October 2026 — Cobalt Homes, a Dallas-based residential developer specializing in architecturally distinctive urban townhome communities, has been honored with two awards in BUILD Magazine’s 2026 Real Estate & Property Awards:
Best Luxury Urban Townhome Developer 2026 – Texas
Residential Design Excellence Award 2026 – Texas
The dual recognition reflects Cobalt Homes’ focus on creating thoughtfully designed residences that combine distinctive architecture, high-quality construction and functional living spaces in desirable urban and infill locations throughout the Dallas–Fort Worth area.
“We’re proud to receive both of these awards recognizing the quality and design that are fundamental to how we approach every Cobalt community,” said Josh Nichols of Cobalt Homes. “Our goal has always been to create homes that are distinctive while also being exceptionally livable for the people who ultimately call them home.”
Cobalt Homes develops modern townhome communities in carefully selected locations throughout North Texas. Rather than using a single standardized product across its developments, Cobalt designs each project specifically for its site and works with leading local architects, engineers and design professionals to create homes tailored to their individual neighborhoods.
That approach is reflected in communities across Dallas–Fort Worth, including Towns on W9th in Bishop Arts, Addison Reserve in Addison, Southstone Yards in Frisco, Clifton Court in Farmers Branch, Glencoe Park Residences in Dallas’ M-Streets and the upcoming Oakborn Court in the Turtle Creek–Oak Lawn area.
Cobalt’s design philosophy centers on what the company describes as a harmony of form and function — pairing architectural character with floor plans and features intended for comfortable everyday living. The company places particular emphasis on indoor-outdoor connections, efficient use of space, energy-efficient building systems, structural quality and elevated interior finishes.
“Great architecture is important, but a home ultimately has to work exceptionally well for the people living in it,” Nichols said. “We spend a tremendous amount of time thinking about everything from the exterior architecture and streetscape to how a kitchen functions, how rooms connect and how a homeowner actually experiences the space every day. Receiving these awards is a meaningful recognition of that philosophy.”
BUILD Magazine named Cobalt Homes a winner in its 2026 Real Estate & Property Awards, an awards program recognizing companies across the real estate and property sectors.
