Development and Market Trends for Old Lake Highlands in Dallas

While putting together a recap of real estate activity for Old Lake Highlands (inclusive of all of Hexter Elementary attendance zone), I noted something new in the mls report that I had not seen before.  At first I thought I had somehow entered the wrong search criteria, because usually only single-family detached homes come up in the search.  Not so this time, as it is official that the corner of Lake Highlands and Easton across from the church is in full development mode.  I know we've seen this before, heard rumors of "something" going  up there, but this time the future townhomes (eleven from what I can tell in the mls) are being marketed for sale.  They will range in size from 1500 sf to 1900 sf and they are priced in the mid to high 200's.  They are "green" homes, and from the looks of the artist renderings, they will be a nice addition to the area-- well as nice as anything can be when it consumes what has forever been a nice little spot of green.

East Lake Pet Orphanage

Angel

Angel

Sweet, loving Angel is a 3 year old Labrador Mix that was found as a stray.  She is calm, friendly, and loves other dogs as well as cats.  She's ready to find a loving, permanent home!

 

Ashley

Ashley

Beautiful Ashley, a 1 1/2 year old Domestic Shorthair, was too active for her previous owner and is looking for a fun-loving adult that will keep her occupied with a lot of playtime!  She's a one-on-one kind of gal and would prefer a home in which she can bond with her pet parents but have the opportunity to hide in her favorite spot when visitors come calling.  She'd prefer to be with adults, and promises to keep you on your toes just as any two-legged children would!
