🏡 WHAT MAKES BENT TREE NORTH SPECIAL
This neighborhood does not get enough credit for how exceptional it truly is; and as someone who knows North Dallas intimately I want to give you the full picture.
The streets themselves are stunning. Bent Tree North’s canopy of mature trees (oaks, pecans, elms lining every block) creates a streetscape that newer master-planned communities simply cannot replicate. When you drive through in October with the leaves beginning to turn it is genuinely one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in all of DFW. This is 30-year-old landscaping. You cannot buy that anywhere else.
Plano ISD and in the City of Dallas. This is one of the rarest combinations in all of North Texas. City of Dallas address and property taxes, combined with Plano Independent School District schools, consistently rated among the strongest public school systems in the state. Buyers relocating from outside Texas immediately recognize what this means; and it drives long-term demand in this neighborhood like few other factors can.
Private school access is exceptional. Bent Tree North sits within minutes of some of DFW’s most prestigious private schools: Shelton School, Greenhill School, Parish Episcopal and The Hockaday School are all within a short drive. For families evaluating both public and private education options this location checks every box.
Employment access is unmatched. The Dallas North Tollway is moments away, connecting residents to Uptown Dallas to the south and the massive employment corridor of Legacy West, Frisco, The Colony and Plano to the north. Whether your commute is downtown or north on the Tollway, Bent Tree North puts you in one of the most strategically positioned locations in all of DFW.
Dining, shopping and lifestyle. The neighborhood sits close to the Shops at Willow Bend corridor, NorthPark Center, the shops and restaurants of Preston Road and Frankford and the exploding dining scene along the Tollway. The variety and quality of dining within 10 minutes of Bent Tree North is genuinely world-class.
📈 THE GROWTH STORY | THIS IS BIG
Here is what I want every Bent Tree North homeowner and prospective buyer to understand about what is coming to this area.
The Dallas Stars are building a brand new arena and $3 billion mixed-use entertainment district at The Shops at Willow Bend, just minutes from Bent Tree North. Demolition begins in 2027. When complete this will be one of the premier entertainment destinations in all of North Texas (hotels, restaurants, retail, an NHL arena and year-round programming) all within a short drive of your front door.
And separately the Dallas Mavericks announced their own new arena plans at the former Valley View Mall site; a short drive away from Bent Tree North.
Two major professional sports franchises. Two multibillion-dollar entertainment districts. Both within a short drive.
What does this mean for homeowners? Major entertainment and economic anchors consistently drive appreciation and sustained demand in surrounding residential neighborhoods. Bent Tree North is already an exceptional neighborhood. The development coming to the Tollway corridor makes the long-term case for ownership here even more compelling.
💰 WHAT THIS MEANS FOR BUYERS AND SELLERS
If you own in Bent Tree North: The combination of Plano ISD schools, established character that newer neighborhoods cannot replicate and the development coming to your corridor makes this an excellent long-term hold. If you are considering selling, 10 homes have closed in this neighborhood in the past 90 days at a median of $1,145,000. Well-priced, well-presented homes are moving. Get a current valuation so you know exactly where you stand.
If you are considering buying in Bent Tree North: Six homes are currently available from $1,030,000 to $1,577,500.

With the Tollway corridor development coming and Plano ISD schools, you are buying into a neighborhood with genuine long-term fundamentals. This is the kind of established character that does not get built anymore.
