Grapevine Offers Lots Of North Texas Amenities
by Blanche Evans
Boasting 10-minute access to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, a beautiful lake, an historical downtown and many other attractions, Grapevine, Texas is a popular relocation destination northeast of Fort Worth and northwest of Dallas. "Located right off of Loop 121 and 114, this city is a mix of large and small businesses and residences," says Realtor Michelle Long, "has superb highway access and is between Dallas and Fort Worth which makes it yet another ideal area in which to buy. Homes tend to be slightly older and smaller in comparison to the other towns around it, but it's close proximity to Grapevine lakes helps keep values high." Advises Realtor Richard Musgrave, "Grapevine boasts an outstanding school system, favorable location, beautiful Lake Grapevine, and both historic homes and new construction. Homes in great condition sell fairly quickly in Grapevine, and for a good price. Homes in need of repair or updating naturally take longer to sell and sell for substantially less. When purchasing a home in Grapevine, pay attention to noise pollution from D/FW airport." "Historic Downtown Grapevine makes this town a tourists dream," suggests Realtor Sharon Hamby, "but also offers its residents never-ending entertainment and comfortable living. Homes range from very old and historic to brand new! Minutes away from DFW Airport, easy access to major highways, and home of the new Gaylord Texan Hotel and Resort, this town is overflowing with character." |
