What $1M, $2M, and $3M Gets You in Las Colinas

Las Colinas Market Context (May 2026)

Before the tier-by-tier breakdown, two market metrics frame the conversation. First, Las Colinas is a cooling market in the current cycle — Redfin's neighborhood data shows the median sale price at approximately $691,250 as of February 2026, down 4.0% year-over-year, while Movoto's trailing-12-month median reads $732,500, up 5%. The two series tell different stories because they cut the data differently; both belong on the page. Second, median price per square foot in Las Colinas runs approximately $248-$249. Days on market average about 61 days, with roughly one offer per home. Hackberry Creek's upper-tier inventory is materially slower — about 87 days on market — signaling a luxury-tier buyer's market.

The four price tiers below are dated as of May 2026. Specific addresses and current closed-sale comps are available on request through Compass private exclusives.

$1M Tier — $900K to $1.1M

The $1 million tier in Las Colinas is dominated by new-construction townhomes, single-level golf villas, and entry-level inventory in the established gated communities. The buyer profile here is younger executive, lock-and-leave second-home owner, or right-sizing empty-nester.

New construction at this tier

• Linkside Las Colinas — Cadence Homes' gated 75-unit luxury townhome community adjacent to TPC Las Colinas / Nelson Golf & Sports Club. Active list range $879,990 to $1,048,990, base from $899,990. Three-story plans, 2-3 bedroom, 2-car plus golf-cart garage, elevated terraces. Each purchase includes a one-year prepaid Social and Fitness Membership at the Nelson Golf & Sports Club.
• The Residences at TPC Las Colinas (Villa One) — boutique 9-villa community on the 17th and 18th fairway of the TPC course. Single-story, 2 BR / 2.5 BA, 2,000-3,000 sqft, elevator-accessible, starting at $900,000. Villa Six pre-sold; Villa Seven reservations open early 2026.

Established communities at this tier

• The Lakes of Las Colinas — entry-level luxury homes; recent Redfin luxury subset showed 3 active listings at a median list of approximately $1,010,000.
• Hackberry Creek — at this band, you get an established 4,500-square-foot luxury home in DFW's largest gated community (4 staffed 24/7 guard gates, ~1,249 homes). Recent luxury-subset data: 7 listings at a median of $874,000, average days on market 87 — slower than the Las Colinas neighborhood baseline.
• Cottonwood Valley entry-level — 1980s-1990s custom homes approximately 3,500-4,500 sqft start in this band. Median list was approximately $995,000 in April 2025.

Lake Carolyn at this tier

• Grand Treviso top-floor units — penthouse-style 2 BR / 2 BA upgraded units have closed and listed in the $1M-$1.4M range, top of the building. See Lake Carolyn Waterfront Condos for the full Lake Carolyn for-sale picture.

$2M Tier — $1.8M to $2.2M

The $2 million tier is where Las Colinas's new-construction luxury hits its stride and the established gated communities reach their golf-frontage premium. The buyer profile shifts to senior-executive primary residence, generational hold buyer, or experienced trade-up.

The cleanest anchor — Avadene at Las Colinas

Avadene at Las Colinas, Alexander Hunt Distinct Homes' 73-homesite gated enclave on 22 acres at Las Colinas Boulevard and La Villita, is the cleanest pricing anchor at this tier. Custom homes 4,000-6,000 sqft. Range $1.9M to $3M-plus. Recent active examples include a Crawford Residential transitional plan listed at $2,495,000 (French Provincial), and a Modern Tudor priced from $2,570,000. Base from $2,849,000 cited on Redfin's community page. Briggs Freeman's 2024 community write-up positioned Avadene as Las Colinas's defining new-construction luxury enclave.

Established estate options at this tier

• Cottonwood Valley golf-frontage — recent active listing 4 BR / 7 BA, 6,757 sqft at $1,999,000. 1980s-1990s custom estates with TPC Course or Cottonwood Valley Course frontage anchor here.
• Hackberry Creek upper tier — top of Hackberry's market is $2M-plus. Renovated/updated estates 4,500-6,000 sqft with golf or creek frontage land in this band.

$3M Tier — $2.8M to $3.5M

The $3 million tier is Las Colinas's flagship band — Avadene flagship plans, Cottonwood Valley premier estates, Fox Glen modern remodels, and the Enclave at Windsor Ridge. Buyer profile is C-suite executive, family office residence, or trophy collector at the upper end of Las Colinas pricing.

New-construction flagship plans

• Avadene flagship plans — recent active example at 311 Avadene Drive listed at $2,849,000, 4 BR / 5 BA, 5,775 sqft, golf-course adjacent. Avadene's flagship plans extend to $3M-plus with energy-efficient finishes, Thermador kitchens, wine rooms, and upstairs entertaining lounges.

Established estate options at this tier

• Fox Glen — gated community inside Las Colinas; modern-transitional remodels on roughly half-acre premier golf lots have listed at this tier, 5 BR / 4.5 BA.
• Cottonwood Valley top-tier custom estates — 6,500-8,000-plus sqft on premier Cottonwood Valley Drive frontage at the Ritz-Carlton resort, push to $3M-plus. Specific recent closed-sale addresses are available on request via Compass.
• The Enclave at Windsor Ridge — described in trade press as "the highest tier of homes in the Nelson corridor." Guard-gated executive estates near The Ritz-Carlton. Typical price band $2.5M to $4M-plus.

Above $3M — How High Does Las Colinas Go?

Highest active single-family list in Las Colinas as of May 2026 is approximately $3,900,000 (Homes.com inventory). Highest active condo list is approximately $2,190,000. The practical Las Colinas residential ceiling is approximately $4M-$5M for finished new-construction estates in Avadene, the Enclave at Windsor Ridge, and Cottonwood Valley premier lots.

An honest read for the ultra-luxury buyer: Las Colinas does not compete in the $10M-plus DFW ultra-luxury tier. PaperCity's annual round-up of DFW homes sold for more than $10M is dominated by Highland Park, Preston Hollow, and Westlake. Las Colinas does not appear. Buyers looking above $5M for primary residence are typically better served by:

• Vaquero Club in Westlake — the Discovery Land Company estate community, $1.5M to $10M-plus across approximately 298-347 homesites
• Highland Park / University Park — combined median approximately $2.15M-$2.25M; established, supply-constrained, ultra-luxury runs to $20M+
• The Ritz-Carlton Residences in Uptown Dallas — branded for-sale residences, full-floor penthouses transacting at $8M+

What The Assaad Group Adds at Each Price Tier

The Assaad Group at Compass represents buyers and sellers across every Las Colinas price tier and product type. The team's engineering depth — see /about for full team and credentials — sharpens the read at every tier: at $1M, a structural and site-grading review on a 1980s Cottonwood Valley resale; at $2M, an HOA reserve study and architectural read on Avadene new construction; at $3M, a development-pipeline read that surfaces what's coming to the corridor two to three years before public announcement. Compass private exclusives access pulls off-market and pre-listing inventory at every tier — particularly in the slower-moving $2M-plus market where active inventory is thin.

Las Colinas's practical residential ceiling is approximately $4M-$5M for finished new-construction estates in Avadene, the Enclave at Windsor Ridge, and Cottonwood Valley premier lots. Single-family home listings have crested around $3,900,000 active. Las Colinas does not appear in PaperCity's annual list of DFW homes that sold above $10M — that ultra-luxury tier is dominated by Highland Park, Preston Hollow, and Westlake. Buyers looking above $5M should consider the Vaquero corridor in Westlake or Highland Park / Preston Hollow rather than Las Colinas.

How does Las Colinas pricing compare to Southlake at the luxury tier?

Southlake's luxury-tier median list runs approximately $2 million as of May 2026, with ultra-luxury exceeding $10M on the market at any given time. Las Colinas tops out closer to $4M-$5M and competes on lifestyle (Ritz-Carlton + Nelson Golf + DFW Airport adjacency) rather than on lot size or top-end ceiling. The two submarkets target different buyers — Southlake for school-priority and acreage; Las Colinas for resort lifestyle and airport access.
