Firewheel
From small one-story homes to sprawling Firewheel estates
Firewheel has several subdivisions, all built around the golf course or Breckinridge Park. Home sizes and styles vary between modest, established homes and sprawling Millennial mansions. Some sit on small plots of land while others showcase yards large enough for backyard pools and tennis courts. Newer homes incorporate farmhouse features like turret windows, inviting front porches and exposed beams, listed anywhere from $630,000 to $800,000. A price tag between $450,000 and $550,000 will often secure an older home with three or four bedrooms, while larger plots soar upwards of $1 million.Tied together by Rowlett Creek
Firewheel Golf Park consists of the Old Course, the Lakes Course and the Bridges Course. The Bridges Course is the newest, full of rolling hills and large oak trees throughout its 27 holes. Rowlett Creek and Spring Creek flow past the neighborhood, offering water challenges for golfers. One Eleven Ranch Park rests at the golf course’s eastern edge. This 29-acre city park has a large natural area with a creek, mature trees and the largest picnic shelter in any Garland city park. It also has a recently renovated playground with colorful slides and climbing structures for children to enjoy.Two unique mascots at Luna Elementary School
“The Garland Independent School District is another reason people look to move towards Firewheel,” says Kathy Spillyards, a Broker at Integrity Plus Real Estate. Luna Elementary School receives an A from Niche. The school offers a Montessori Magnet program and two unique mascots: a pair of chickens – Margaret and Amelia – that classes take care of in turns. Students may then attend Webb Middle School and Naaman Forest High School, earning a B-minus and B Niche grade, respectively. The University of Texas at Dallas is roughly 9 miles away.Events from Plano to Wylie
Annual events include a Taste of Firewheel and the Wildflower Arts and Music Festival. Nearby, locals can enjoy live music at the July Music Festival in Wylie or garner new wall art at the Cottonwood Arts Festival in the City of Richardson. Every March, Plano hosts the Texas Forever Fest. Families enjoy theme parks like Adventure Landing, Play Street Museum, Hawaiian Water Garland and Rowlett Wet Zone in the summer.

The outdoor mall of Firewheel Town Center has a small park at the center, with leafy trees and a stream flowing from a fountain. Popular stores like Dick’s Sporting Goods, DSW and Old Navy are among other specialized stores. Wildwood serves laid-back meals in a comfortable setting alongside a wide selection of cocktails and beer, hanger steak and shrimp and grits. For groceries, Walmart Neighborhood Market is just off Murphy Road, and Target is on North Garland Avenue. And with the President George Bush Turnpike nearby, residents are within a short drive anywhere throughout the Metroplex.Interconnected bus lines to downtown Garland and Richardson
