Convenience and international character

Less than 4 miles from Downtown Garland and 20 miles from Dallas’ City Center, the neighborhood of Holiday Park is a pocket of quiet streets where old-school suburbia meets modern-day convenience. "It's an established area close to the major thoroughfares," says Realtor Michelle Scribner with Fathom Realty. "It's nice because you're in the suburbs and not in the thick of things, but you can still be downtown or at the airport in 30 minutes." With large, well-maintained homes, one of Garland’s biggest parks at its doorstep and temples and markets that cater to the local Asian American population, Holiday Park offers an international community for people from all walks of life.

Traditional homes in Holiday Park average 2,500 square feet and sell for upwards of $400,000.

Large homes with good value

In Holiday Park, traditional and ranch-style homes occupy most of the neighborhood and were built in the 1970s through the early 2000s. Single-family homes are roomy, featuring three and four bedrooms, spacious back decks and deep front yards. Some townhouse subdivisions offer extra amenities, like community swimming pools and gated security. Homebuyers can expect to pay anywhere from $200,000 to $450,000 for a home in Holiday Park. “It’s an older neighborhood with good value,” says Garland City Councilman for District 7 Dylan Hedrick. “Homes are less expensive than other areas — good for first-time homebuyers.”

From down-home to Vietnamese

Hana Hibachi and Sushi across the street is popular for its theatrical chefs who make the food in front of diners. Target, Walmart and Sam's Club are just up the road, and Firewheel Town Center, with over 110 brand-name department and specialty stores, is less than 4 miles away. Cali Saigon Mall, with its Vietnamese supermarket and Asian food court and shops, is just a few miles west along Belt Line Road, and residents have a Tom Thumb in the northwest corner.
