Flower Mound

Flower Mound is a town of about 76,000 people in southern Denton County on the north shore of Grapevine Lake, known for master-planned golf communities and for a conservation district that keeps part of town rural and open. The Agency Dallas represents buyers and sellers across Flower Mound, from established neighborhoods like Wellington and Bridlewood to acreage and new construction. This page answers the questions we hear most often about pricing, school districts, property taxes, and how the town's land-use rules shape what gets built. Every figure below is tied to a named public source listed at the bottom of the page.

Where is Flower Mound, and what are its boundaries?

Flower Mound lies mostly in Denton County, with a small area extending into Tarrant County, and covers about 43.4 square miles, according to Wikipedia. Grapevine Lake and Marshall Creek form much of the town's southern boundary, and DFW International Airport is about 4 miles to the south. Residents voted to incorporate on February 25, 1961, in part to avoid annexation by Irving. The town takes its name from "The Mound," a roughly 12.5-acre hill near FM 3040 and FM 2499 that is owned and maintained by the nonprofit Mound Foundation.

How much does a house cost in Flower Mound in 2026?

The typical Flower Mound home is valued at about $600,000, with recent sales slightly higher. Zillow's Home Value Index put the typical home value at $599,753 as of September 30, 2026, essentially flat over the prior year. Zillow also reported a median sale price of $616,833 as of August 31, 2026, and a median list price of $702,998 as of September 30, 2026. Prices vary widely by neighborhood and lot size, so a golf-course home in Bridlewood and a multi-acre property in the Cross Timbers area will price very differently.

Is Flower Mound a buyer's or seller's market right now?

It is close to balanced, with prices holding steady and buyers gaining some room to negotiate. Zillow reported a median of 28 days to pending as of September 30, 2026, and a median sale-to-list ratio of 99.5% as of August 31, 2026. Zillow's median list price is running well ahead of its median sale price, a sign that asking prices are not always where homes close. If you are selling, pricing from the closest recent sales matters more than the asking prices around you; if you are buying, there is often room to discuss terms on homes that have sat.

What are the main neighborhoods and pockets in Flower Mound?

Flower Mound sorts roughly into established master-planned communities and the lower-density Cross Timbers district.

• Wellington. Master-planned; development began in 1995; about 2,400 homes; pools, tennis courts, and a fitness facility, per Community Impact (2018).
• Bridlewood. Built around a golf course; development began in 1996; 11 neighborhoods; pool, fitness center, parks, and trails, per Community Impact (2017).
• Tour 18 area. Homes near Tour 18 Dallas, a public golf course at 8718 Amen Corner that replicates famous holes from well-known courses.
• Cross Timbers Conservation Development District. Central Flower Mound; first recognized in the town's Master Plan in 1999 to protect the area's country atmosphere and natural environment.
• Lakeside. The 265-acre Lakeside Business District near Grapevine Lake, per Wikipedia.

What is the Cross Timbers Conservation Development District?

It is the part of Flower Mound where the town's Master Plan aims to keep a rural, open character. Community Impact reported that the district was first recognized in the Master Plan in 1999, and the town's planning director described its purpose as protecting "the country atmosphere and natural environment." In a 2025 review of the proposed 335-acre Eden Ranch along Cross Timbers Road, Community Impact noted that features like accessory dwelling units and stables are typically restricted to lots of 2 acres or more in the district, and that masonry walls are typically not allowed. For you, that means larger lots, more open space, and a slower, more scrutinized path for new subdivisions.

What school districts serve Flower Mound?

Most of Flower Mound is in Lewisville ISD, but not all of it. According to Wikipedia, Argyle ISD, Denton ISD, and Northwest ISD divide the western portion of town, and Grapevine-Colleyville ISD serves the Tarrant County portion. Community Impact's neighborhood profiles listed Flower Mound High School for Wellington and Marcus High School for Bridlewood. Because district lines can change from one street to the next in western Flower Mound, confirm the ISD and campus for any specific address before you buy.

What are property taxes like in Flower Mound?

Adding the town, county, and school district rates gives a combined base rate of roughly $1.69 per $100 of taxable value in the Lewisville ISD portion and about $1.75 in the Argyle ISD portion, before exemptions. For the 2025 tax year, Community Impact reported that the Town of Flower Mound adopted $0.387277 per $100 and Denton County adopted $0.185938 per $100. Lewisville ISD adopted $1.1178 per $100 for 2025-26, according to the district, and Community Impact reported Argyle ISD's 2025-26 rate at $1.1727 per $100.

Community Impact's profiles from 2017 and 2018 described Wellington homes from about 1,878 to 4,748 square feet and Bridlewood homes from about 2,410 to 5,702 square feet.

Flower Mound works well if you fly often or split time between Dallas and Fort Worth.
