Treeline at a Glance

What Makes Treeline Different: Nature-Inspired Living

Treeline’s theme comes from the land itself: multiple treelines of mature oaks and a creek called Trail Creek. Residents enter under a covered bridge over the creek, and shaded trails run beneath it. Hillwood’s planning for the community also won a Best on Boards Community award.

The Treehouse Theme

• The Treehouse: a three-story gaming treehouse at The Hideaway, with games that get harder as kids climb higher. Open now.
• The Nook: a library-inspired park with swings, chairs, and a slide for kids and adults. Opening in 2027.
• Sky Park: a park for cloud spotting and stargazing, with logs and steppers arranged as constellations. Open now.
• Twig Park: a tree-inspired playground with smaller slides, swings, and climbers for little ones. Open now.
• The Lookout: an elevated observation deck above Trail Creek. Open now.

Location: Justin, Texas and the Alliance Corridor

Treeline is south of FM 407 in western Justin, which Hillwood describes as halfway between Denton and Fort Worth. Denton is about 14 miles away. Highway 114 and I-35W are the main routes to shopping, dining, and AllianceTexas employers like Charles Schwab, Fidelity, Verizon, Deloitte, BNSF, and Amazon. Nearby attractions include Texas Motor Speedway, Tanger Outlets, Ray Roberts Lake State Park, and the Fort Worth Stockyards.

Groceries: the City of Justin announced a Walmart Neighborhood Market, with a pharmacy, near John Wiley Road and FM 156, less than 4 miles from Treeline. No opening date has been announced.

Justin itself: about 6,200 people as of mid-2024, with small-town events like Justin Old-Town Christmas.

FM 407 Road Work

Treeline sits just south of FM 407. TxDOT’s larger 11.5-mile widening covers the road from west of Justin to east of Argyle, with a planned bypass of the S-curves between Northlake and Justin. TxDOT hasn’t announced a construction date for the full project. See our FM 407 widening guide for the full timeline.

Treeline vs. Harvest vs. Pecan Square

Honest Considerations

• Construction continues for years. Treeline is in Phase 1 of a multi-phase community.
• The Nook opens in 2027, and the on-site elementary school isn’t built yet.
• The MUD tax is a major part of the rate. Budget for it.
• Groceries are still a drive until the planned Walmart Neighborhood Market opens.
• No one can promise appreciation. Hillwood’s track record is good, but values depend on the market.

Why Work With a Realtor at Treeline?

You can walk into a model home and work directly with the builder’s rep, but that person works for the builder. Our team compares the eight builders, helps with lot selection, negotiates incentives, reviews builder contracts, and attends pre-drywall and pre-closing inspections. Bringing your own Realtor typically costs you nothing extra, because builder compensation is already built into pricing.
