Rejuvenated North Denton

Recent developments have brought new life to the Rayzor Ranch area, with big box stores popping up alongside apartment buildings and trendy new restaurants. Its residents are within reach of multiple shopping centers, like University Village, a water park and 300 acres spanning across its 30 parks. Within a mile's drive is an expanding downtown, so well-known for its musical talent and big-city arts that the city of Denton has found itself on Paste Magazine's list of the nation's Best Music Scenes. It's a bragging right heavily influenced by the presence of three universities: the University of North Texas, Texas Woman's University and North Central Texas College. “It’s kind of been the north edge of Denton for a long time, but it’s really become quite vibrant; lots of restaurants and places to enjoy yourself outdoors,” says Kaki Lybbert, a Realtor with Century 21 Judge Fite Company who is also a Certified Relocation Specialist.

Putting the ranch in Rayzor Ranch

In addition to apartments, there’s a broad mix of single-family homes in Rayzor Ranch, but as the name implies, ranch-style houses are the most common along its tree-lined streets. Dotted between are Craftsman and farmhouse-style homes with large front porches or traditional brick houses with built-in garages. Interested homebuyers should move quickly, as Lybbert says they sell quickly. For a ranch-style house in the more established southern portion of the neighborhood, a price tag of $250,000 to $325,000 is to be expected, while newer brick builds on the northern end are listed between $335,000 and $450,000.
