Westlake Real Estate

Some reasons why relocating in Westlake may make a lot of sense for you and your family ...
Westlake, which until the past few years was mostly ranch land, is now being developed in a decidedly upscale way. Its two principal residential real estate developments are the luxury home neighborhoods of Glenwyck Farms and Vaquero.

Westlake also is home to Vaquero Golf Club, generally acknowledged by the local golfing community as one of the DFW metroplex's two best country clubs, and the regional offices of Daimler-Chrysler and Fidelity Investments. It has been discussed as the site for a new super-regional shopping mall that is to be built in the same upscale style as the properties that already have been developed there. Westlake is located in north Tarrant County.
