Before Canyon Creek became the charming, well-planned community it is today, it was ranch and hunting land. Canyon Creek homes were developed by the Blanton Company in the late 1980s. Perry Blanton and his company worked hard to create a community that meets the needs of active families. Those who are interested in moving to the community today will find that the community includes parks, hike and bike trails, and a pool so that residents can enjoy an active lifestyle.

The houses themselves are a handsome blend of brick and stone. These elegant estates feature classic gabled roofs and can be one or two stories. Because the majority of these homes were built more than thirty years ago, interested buyers will find that yards are populated by developed deciduous trees that offer shade and privacy.

When this neighborhood was developed, the builders worked hard to highlight the exceptional natural spaces that surround the homes. Throughout the home, large windows overlook meticulously landscaped spaces. Hardwood floor and granite countertops bring the natural world into the homes themselves. Balconies and front patios invite homeowners to enjoy a quiet morning sipping coffee outside. Backyard pools provide a great space where you can keep cool in the summer. Backyard barbecuing areas are the perfect place to host a neighborhood barbecue.

While the majority of homes were constructed in the late 1980s and the early 1990s, a number of homes were also developed in the 2000s. As such, buyers who are interested in newer homes will not be disappointed.
