This beautifully treed, un-platted, and commercially zoned tract is situated at the southern entrance to the City of Argyle, and only a short distance from Argyle's new, first class high school. The property enjoys 295+ feet of frontage along the north R.O.W. of FM 407, and over 387+ feet facing US Hwy 377, across a narrow strip held by the Texas Highway Department.

The City of Argyle is a growing community of 2,800+ people situated between IH 35W and IH 35E, approximately 6 miles southwest of Denton. It incorporates nearly 8,000 acres.

Argyle is located at the northern end of a rapidly developing triangle in southern Denton County, an area similar in many ways to that portion of N. Dallas, north of Loop 12 and between Preston Road and US Highway 75, which saw meteoric growth during the late 1900's.

From 1980 to 2000, Denton County grew from 143,000 to 432,000 people. Immediately south and southeast of Argyle, Flower Mound [50,702] and Highland Village [12,173] have seen their populations explode, as have Southlake, and the Alliance Airport area now boasting over 2.5 million square feet of office, warehouse and distribution space and still growing.

Argyle's schools are well respected and the community is highly desired by residents of Dallas and Ft. Worth's more crowded suburbs, who desire a bit of the country, but within commuting distance of major employment centers in the Metroplex, and quality schools.

To meet this growing demand, major new planned communities are being built.

Included in these are Lantana, a newly commenced 1,700 acre 3,600 home master planned golf course community and new elementary school.

To the northwest, Robinson Ranch, a 3,500 acre master planned community to include 6,000 homes and 3 championship golf courses.

Few are quite as dramatic as Saddle Brook with its twin, 12 foot stallions guarding the entrance to homes valued in the $300's to well over $1 million, but all are of exceptional quality.

Argyle recently adopted its Argyle 2020 Concept Plan ["Argyle 2020"] as the conceptual guide for future development. Its intended purpose is to insure low density, high quality of lifestyle development within the city. It generally seeks to focus commercial, office and retail uses along Hwy 377, with a graduated reduction in residential density as the distance from Hwy 377 increases. However, it also appears to envision Hwy 377 as more of a service and pedestrian friendly boulevard, than as the high-speed highway it is today.

Argyle 2020 envisions the creation of two or three Town Centers along Hwy 377, fashioned after turn of the century retail concepts, with the front entrances geared toward pedestrian traffic and parking limited to side and rear areas.

Though completed prior to the recently adopted Argyle 2020 plan, recent developments along Hwy 377 appear to be generally reflective of the quality and configuration anticipated, and are presumed to be reflective of what will be permitted.

These are the North Star Bank building and the Settlers Center office building.
