A vintage community near the heart of downtown Garland
Hiland embodies the city of Garland's 100-plus years of storied history through its vintage homes and multifaceted park. Central Park, located in the heart of Hiland, laid the groundwork for the city's park and recreation system as its first official municipal park. Over the years, it's become a community staple, known for its massive playground and dog park. Sidewalk-lined streets connect the park with most homes in Hiland, where maturity and price points pique interest. "Hiland is old-school Garland," says Realtor Clay Garrett of Keller Williams Dallas Midtown. Garrett works on a team with his wife, who have sold homes across the region for over a decade. "The houses are older, but people are drawn here because of their affordability." And what Hiland doesn't fully capture of Garland's history is attainable steps away in its rustic downtown area. "You're very close to downtown, which has this really cool uniqueness to it," Garrett says. "In all, Hiland residents are good people."
