Don't Miss This

Amazing Proximity to Schools and Parks

Chances are your maps brought you in off Ohio Drive. On your way out, take Archgate Drive instead — you'll see firsthand just how close this neighborhood sits to the top schools, parks, and trails. It's the kind of proximity that's hard to fully appreciate until you're in it.

The Primary Suite is a Genuine Retreat

Without furniture it can be hard to appreciate the scale. This room fits a California King and a sitting area. It's East-facing, so wake up to the morning sun. Worth pausing and appreciating your options here.

From the Sellers

We loved the location of the house for our boys to be close to school. It was also so easy to get to everything else in Plano. There were times when the weather was great and I even chose to walk to work at Legacy. It's hard to beat this location and we had so many great neighbors on our street.

The neighorhood features 406 homes built primarily by David Weekley, Trendmaker or Beazer in the mid-to-late 1990s . The community offers a rare combination of quiet residential streets, mature tree canopy, and an unbeatable proximity to top-tier Plano ISD schools.

Legacy West is 10 minutes away, HEB 6 minutes, and Trader Joe's and Whole Foods 7 — a location that's hard to beat at any price.
