ROLLA, MO – McBride Homes is excited to announce the release of Phase 2 at Highlands Estates, introducing 22 new homesites featuring the popular Oakwood Series in the growing Highlands master-planned community in Rolla, Missouri.

The release of these new homesites provides buyers with added opportunities to build one of McBride's estate-style homes on a premium homesite. Oakwood Series homes offer spacious ranch, 1.5-story, and two-story floor plans with 3-4 bedrooms, open-concept living spaces, designer kitchens, flexible home offices, luxurious owner's suites, and three-car garage options.
