Less than a beautiful mile from the northern shores of Grapevine Lake, the Wichita Creek Estates Phases I and II sit prettily on large 1+ acre home sites in Flower Mound real estate. During the 1990s, over a hundred elegant two-story homes nestled in the dense Texas woods in Flower Mound gave life to the planned community in southern Denton County.
A handful of Wichita Creek's impressive 4- and 5-bedroom Flower Mound homes many with swimming pools and all landscaped to perfection, are on the market. Prices vary from approximately $500,000 to $1 million fpr 3,400 to 6,800 square feet of amenities. Take a drive down Creek View, Thistle Hill or Sun Meadow for a touch of Texas living at its finest.
One of many Flower Mound neighborhoods clustered near the lake—including Chateau du Lac, Point Noble, and Northlake Estates—connected via a nationally recognized trail system that wraps through the town. Trails and greenbelts lead to camping, picnic, and boating facilities on the 7,300-acre Grapevine Lake where many a city dweller finds just enough of a breeze to launch a sailboat or to enjoy a day of windsurfing. The manmade lake also has a practical function to act as a water reservoir for the community. Everyone finds a way to appreciate the glistening waters by hiking or biking or horseback riding around it—or by jumping in on a hot summer day.
Surrounded by the Town of Flower Mound, residents of homes in Wichita Creek Estates count on fabulous schools in the Lewisville ISD, low taxes, an extraordinary amount of recreational trails and facilities, convenient shopping and employment options, and great small-town events and festivals. The picturesque smart-growth community has been chosen as a Best Place to Live by Money magazine and they’ve worked hard for the attributes necessary.
After the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport opened between the two large cities, their suburbs began merging together as if to heal the long-standing rivalry between them. This wonderful natural setting has gracefully absorbed over 40,000 people since 1990. However, citizens want to remain a “town” with a Town Hall and Town Council. So much land was being developed that the town adopted the SMART growth management plan to protect and preserve existing open space, vistas, and natural habitats. Most of the residential real estate is comprised of single-family homes.
With a median annual household income, according to a recent CNN Money report, of over $100,000, several industries and professions are prospering here. In addition, the commute to the DFW airport and to the Las Colinas business center is about 25 minutes. Add ten minutes to arrive in downtown in the Big D.
Students in Wichita Creek Estates attend Liberty Elementary (Exemplary), McKamy Middle (Exemplary), and Flower Mound High School (Recognized), or they may find private options such as Liberty Christian School, Coram Deo Academy, and The Highlands School. Several colleges and universities dot the Metroplex but the closest is the University of Dallas.
