Spacious custom homes, luxury estates, and master-planned communities with large lots — all within Rockwall County's most peaceful and private setting. Jorge Avila is your local expert.
If what you're looking for is space, privacy, and a custom home on a large lot — without giving up Rockwall County's top-rated schools and easy DFW access — McLendon-Chisholm is the answer. With a population of just over 3,500, it remains one of the smallest and most exclusive cities in the county.
Homes here are predominantly custom-built on larger homesites, with many properties offering acreage, equestrian paths, and the kind of breathing room that simply doesn't exist in more densely developed suburbs. The real estate tends to be priced higher than surrounding areas — a reflection of the lot sizes, custom construction, and luxury features buyers find here.
McLendon-Chisholm sits 25–30 miles east of Dallas with easy access to Rockwall's dining, shopping, and The Harbor — giving residents the best of quiet country living and city convenience.
From luxury estates on acreage to master-planned communities with modern amenities — McLendon-Chisholm has options for every buyer seeking space and privacy.
