5 Texas Retreats from Wooded Acres to West Plano Luxury

Down a scenic drive through beautiful pastures in Union Valley, this gated 10-acre retreat pairs country charm with modern convenience. A custom stone, brick, and cedar home sits tucked among the trees, with an open floor plan finished in warm wood and stone. In the main living area, a soaring full masonry, stone wood-burning fireplace anchors the space, while surrounding windows pull in abundant natural light and frame sweeping 360° views. A private office and second living area offer flexibility for work and weekends alike, and covered porches on multiple sides extend daily living outdoors. Beyond the house, a gazebo overlooks a serene stocked pond with a dock. The AG-exempt setting is thoughtfully equipped with improved pastures, cross-fencing, a loafing shed, and a livestock lane, plus a detached garage-workshop with equipment overhang for boat storage and covered parking—an easy rhythm for land, animals, and quiet evenings under wide-open skies.

In the heart of North Garland, this negotiated furnished executive office condo at Shoal Creek Office Plaza pairs professional polish with a calming greenbelt backdrop at the rear entry.

An elegant boardroom supports client meetings and strategy sessions, while the front reception-sitting area sets a composed first impression. A fully equipped kitchen-breakroom and a large central workroom create space for daily operations, collaboration, and printing, complemented by two oversized storage rooms with built-in shelving and two spacious private bathrooms. Front visitor parking and rear covered reserved staff parking add everyday ease. Certain furniture and décor items will not convey, but the overall environment is designed to feel immediately operational and quietly focused.
