Home of the Week: Legacy Oak Homes
“In our bones we need the natural curves of hills, the scent of chaparral, the whisper of pines, the possibility of wildness. We require these patches of nature for our mental health and our spiritual resilience.” – Richard Louv, ‘Last Child in the Woods’
Let these words carry you through the sun-soaked rooms of the Grand Yaupon, proudly presented by Legacy Oak Homes and located in The Acres at Desert Creek community, nestled in northern Collin County. As you roam from room to room, lift your gaze to striking views of land that seem nearly untouched by man. Every window, every entryway of this modern and functional floor plan is carefully positioned to bring the outdoors in, connecting you and your family to the healing power of nature and sunlight before you’ve even stepped foot outside to your 1-1.5 acre homesite.
Of course, when you do step out, your indoor lifestyle flows effortlessly into the nature surrounding you as you play, relax and entertain around the added pool and roaring firepit. Nearby, something delicious is being prepared in your covered outdoor kitchen. You store everything you need for outdoor living in your optional 2-4 bay storage barn. Or, perhaps you chose to add the upstairs space as your own private studio apartment!
Gone are the days of living among rows and rows of cookie cutter houses. Instead, your backyard is made up of towering trees, sloping hills and nearby gentle creeks—all hallmarks of The Acres at Desert Creek, situated on land developed to preserve its natural beauty and diverse wildlife. You feel that care each time you explore its sprawling 6-acre park, or stroll the peaceful walking trails that wind through the community.
For all its seclusion and tranquility, ease of access to all of life’s conveniences is of no concern. The entrance to The Acres at Desert Creek sits less than 1,500 feet from State Hwy 121, so you’re never far from the best schools, shopping and more that McKinney, Frisco and all of DFW have to offer.
