The Vineyard Grapevine Lake Neighborhood
By Buehlers and Associates

At the very northern tip of Grapevine Lake on the west side of Flower Mound TX real estate, The Vineyard on the Lake subdivision offers exclusive country living.  These Flower Mound TX homes feature access to Knob Hills Park along a cove, serene views of the lake, and easy access to the championship Tour 18 Golf Course just across Cross Timbers Road.  The “Best Place to Live” Town of Flower Mound has been able to preserve a country atmosphere, rural heritage, and quality of life while cultivating a dynamic economic environment.  It is not unusual for The Vineyard’s big-eyed deer to give pause to residents returning home to Flower Mound after a good day’s work in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex.  

Since 2002, gorgeous Flower Mound homes in The Vineyard on the Lake have been welcoming active families to top-quality real estate in southern Denton County.  A recent listing in the Vineyard features over 4,000 square feet at $155 each for $650,000.  Complete with a heated swimming pool on 1.5 acre, the gorgeous Hill Country home is one of about 45 homes in the peaceful Flower Mound subdivision.

The Tour 18 Golf Course in The Estates at Tour 18 features ingenious simulations of some of the most difficult holes found in America for legends, pros, and visitors alike.  Golfers experience Cherry Hill's #1 where in 1960 Arnold Palmer shot 30 on the front nine and 65 for the round to capture his U.S. Open Championship.  Tommy Doral's nearly impossible 18th hole is known as the "Blue Monster.”

For almost twenty years, the Town has been one of the fastest growing cities in the nation with a population now approaching 70,000.  Its flourishing economy is fueled by its great location just off Interstate 35 and only five miles from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.  Diverse industries and professions—from scientific, management, administrative services, waste management services, education, health, social services, retail, finance, insurance, real estate, rental and leasing, to manufacturing—ensure ample employment opportunities.

In an effort to preserve the community’s rural feel while achieving a pro-business attitude, some developers began conservation planning.  The Sanctuary and Chimney Rock neighborhoods are two formal conservation developments so far.   Although The Vineyard on the Lake is naturally pristine, the idea of conserving open space during development is really starting to catch on in Texas.  The Town features over 10 miles of nationally recognized trails that connect parks and neighborhoods—great for walking, running, cycling, skating, and horseback riding.  Recreational sports teams also take advantage of the great weather, community parks, ball fields, and recreation facilities, including the new state-of-the-art community center in the heart of town.

Trails leading from the secluded cove through the lakeside parks provide invigorating exercise for many.  Biking trails and abundant water sports add to the fun and relaxation.   Many launch a yacht or sailboat from the renowned Twin Coves Marina down the road or slip into the water with a kayak.  Camping and picnic areas with facilities make it super easy to take a needed vacation any day of the year. 

Families living in The Vineyard on the Lake are served by the Northwest Independent School District at Beck Elementary, Medlin Middle, and Northwest High schools.  In addition, options include several private schools such as Liberty Christian School, Coram Deo Academy, and The Highlands School.  The Metroplex is also a hub for renowned colleges and universities including the nearby University of Dallas.
