Four acres like this don't sit around for long.

Tucked off one of the prettiest roads in southern Denton County, this Lewisville property overlooks a quiet pond framed by a mature tree line, with the kind of stillness that's getting harder to find this close to everything. Land this special usually changes hands quietly, so if you've been waiting for the right piece to build on, this is your moment to take a look.

Picture what you'd make of it. An elegant estate with formal gardens. A country home with room for a barn and a few animals. A gathering place with a pool, a pickleball court, and garage space for all the toys. Room enough for multiple generations, or a forever retreat you never have to leave. The vision is entirely yours to set, and the location gives you the rare gift of Texas country quiet just minutes from great shopping and dining.

Bring your builder, your architect, your family, and your ideas. I'd be glad to help you think it through.

Just Listed in Krum ㅤ

Room to roam, room to grow, room for whomever and whatever you're bringing with you — this is 3.69 acres of estate-sized possibility on the edge of historic, fast-growing Krum, Texas.

The traditional two-story façade and enormous front porch set the tone before you even step inside, where an open floor plan, private owner's suite, postcard worthy dining room, oversized mud/laundry room, massive upstairs game room/flex room, charming character, personal touches, and a genuinely livable layout make this one feel like home from day one. Bring the RV, the car collection, or the grown-up toys — the oversized storage building is ready for them. Bring the horses, goats, and chickens too; there's space for everything.

Out back, an expansive lawn, covered outdoor living area, and lovely pool set the stage for long Texas summers and the kind of memories that make a house a home.

Krum offers small-town, community-oriented living with room to spread out — and this property is ready for you to plant roots.

There's just something exciting about fall in North Texas! Ever since I was a boy, I've looked forward to fall. First the weather starts to get cool, and then Thanksgiving and Christmas are around the corner!

I love it when the first cool front starts rolling in, the college and high school stadium lights start flickering on, and it feels like the whole city is gearing up for kickoff. Whether I'm showing a home on a chilly Saturday morning or just driving through a North Texas neighborhood on a fall day, I can feel the energy building.

And we're spoiled with options around here. Whether your team of choice is one of our local peewee, jr. high or high shool teams, UNT in Denton, TCU in Fort Worth, SMU in Dallas, or any of our other Texas teams further south, east or west, — there's a home team worth rooting for no matter where you land. Big, sold-out stadium energy or a smaller game where you can actually hear the drumline — Texas has a Thursay, Friday, or Saturday scene for every kind of fan.

That's one of the things I love about this area. Taking in a great football game doesn't require a big budget or a long drive. Just grab your family and a few friends, pick a school, and go soak it in. Everybody loves a home team, and around here, you get to love a few of them.

Who are you cheering for this season? You can find your local jr. high and high school schedules on the schools' websites. And I've dropped the link below for the college schedule to help you plan out your Saturdays for this fall. And even though its hard to believe in this 100+ degree weather, pretty soon, it'll be time to break out a warm coat, stick a beanie on your head, and head over to the concession stand for some hot chocolate!

🎥 Press play — then come see it in person.

There's a reason Timber Ridge keeps giving you reasons to come back. Every walk-through turns up something new: the way light moves across the vaulted ceilings, the quiet of a full acre tucked inside gated Forest Hills, grounds a landscape architect clearly took his time with.

It's the kind of home that rewards a second look — European country charm, a stone fireplace built for gathering, a summer kitchen made for lingering outside, and a flexible two-story bonus building ready for whatever's next.

If it's caught your eye before, this is your sign to come see it for real.

There's something special about walking alongside someone through a first. First-time sellers have all the questions, and rightfully so, because selling a home is a big deal. So when Heidi and her family trusted me with theirs, I didn't take it lightly.

Being quick to answer, steady through the details, and genuinely in their corner from start to finish... that's the job, and it's an honor every time.

Thank you, Heidi, for putting your trust in me. Reviews like this are the reason I love what I do. 💛

No matter what part of DFW you call home, and whether it's your first sale or your fifth, I'm always grateful for the chance to help families move forward. If you're thinking about your next step, I'd love to hear from you.

Some properties you buy. This one, you dream on.

Four acres in Lewisville, tucked off one of the prettiest roads in southern Denton County, overlooking a quiet pond with a mature tree line and a stillness that's getting harder to find this close to everything. Land like this doesn't come up often around here, and when it does, it tends to change hands quietly.

What I love about a blank canvas is that it isn't really blank. It's whatever you can picture. An elegant estate with formal gardens. A country home with room for a barn and a few animals. A showplace built for gathering, with a pool, a court for pickleball, and garage space for all the toys. Room enough for multiple generations under one roof, or a forever family retreat you never have to leave. The vision is yours to set.

And the location gives you the rare thing: minutes from great shopping and dining, while still holding onto that Texas country quiet. The best of both worlds really is possible sometimes.

So bring your builder, your architect, your family, and your ideas. I'd be glad to help you think it through.

Open house this Sunday 8/16 from 1-4pm. Come see it for yourself.
1085 Timber Ridge Trail, Cross Roads, TX

Every so often a home stops you the moment you step inside. This is one of them.

Set within the gated community of Forest Hills, 1085 Timber Ridge Trail has a warmth that's easier to feel than describe. Vaulted ceilings pull the light in. A stone fireplace grounds the living space. And the acre around it, shaped by a landscape architect, gives you that rare sense of being tucked away while still sitting comfortably in North Texas.

The details are what stay with you. Durable SIPS construction, built-in storage throughout, a summer kitchen made for slow gatherings, and a two-story bonus building with an oversized garage that can flex into whatever your life needs.

Representing a home this special is a genuine privilege, and I'd love for you to walk it in person.

4 beds • 3 baths • 3,298 sqft • 1 acre • $925,000

Stop by Saturday, or reach out anytime. I'm always glad to show you around.

📊 Market Moves: Where Things Stand Right Now

I've been keeping a close eye on the numbers across Denton, Collin, and Tarrant counties, and here's what I'm seeing: the market is settling. After a few years of prices climbing fast, values have leveled off — and in some pockets they've eased back a little from where they were this time last year. Homes are also taking a bit longer to sell. And honestly? That's a healthier place to be.

What does it mean for you? A little more breathing room. 🙌 Buyers finally have time to think things through and real room to negotiate. Sellers are still finding motivated buyers ready to move, especially when a home is priced right. It's a more balanced market — the kind where both sides can walk away feeling good about the deal.

Whether you're looking in the heart of the city or out where things stretch a little wider, at any price point, homes are still changing hands. The frenzy has just cooled. And in my experience, that's exactly the kind of moment that opens doors.

If you've been wondering what all this means for your own situation, I'd love to talk it through with you — no pressure, just an honest conversation. Grateful, as always, for the trust you place in me. 🏡

The key change: I swapped "home values are still climbing year over year" for a leveling-off/slight-easing framing, and adjusted the sellers line from "strong values" to "motivated buyers when priced right" so nothing overstates the market. Everything else keeps Chris's warmth, the tri-county coverage, all-price-points nod, and gratitude close.

One thing worth flagging: if Chris wants to cite any specific numbers in a comment or follow-up, the county figures move month to month, so it's worth pulling fresh data right before posting. Want me to work in a soft, specific stat anywhere, or keep it qualitative like this?

If you're around Denton this weekend, here's a good one to have on your radar.

North Texas Athletics is kicking off its 2026-27 season tomorrow — Saturday, August 8 — with a free, family-friendly event at DATCU Stadium, and it's open to everyone. Whether your whole family bleeds green, you call yourself an alumni, or you simply appreciate what UNT brings to this community, it's a nice chance to connect with something that's been part of the fabric of Denton for a long time.

Here's what to know:

📍 DATCU Stadium — West concourse, outside Gate 2
🕞 Festivities start at 3:30 p.m. with a kid's zone, interactive activities, and an autograph session with the football team
🕓 Inside the HUB Club (third floor), season updates from athletic leadership and head coaches begin at 4 p.m.
🎟️ 35% off select single-game tickets available at the event
🍔 Complimentary food, a cash bar, sponsor sampling, and the launch of the new Desert Scrappy apparel line

No cost, no catch — just an afternoon out with family and neighbors before the season gets going.

I've always thought the things that give a place its character are worth showing up for. If you make it out, enjoy it. 💚
