Live Plano listings updated daily from the MLS — plus what local buyers should know before making a move.
Luxury in Plano doesn’t mean marble lobbies — it means land, privacy, and custom construction at prices that would be impossible 20 minutes east. The top of this market is defined by Schaefer Woods and Deer Ridge customs on acre-plus lots, the gated lake properties of Solitude Lakes, and river-adjacent settings near Silver Springs State Fish & Wildlife Area. For buyers who measure luxury in acres and quiet rather than proximity to a mall, Plano’s top tier is one of the strongest value plays in the western suburbs.

Active listings pulled directly from the MLS.
Expect custom single-family homes from roughly 2,600 to 4,700+ square feet on one to one-and-a-half acres, with three-car garages, finished lower levels, and long setbacks. Recent benchmarks: Schaefer Woods closings in the $540s–$570s, Deer Ridge sales reaching the high $600s, and Solitude Lakes lakefront trading from $500K up. True riverfront and equestrian-capable parcels appear occasionally and command attention when they do.
The luxury map here is small and specific. Schaefer Woods sits on the Yorkville border (CUSD 115 schools); Deer Ridge rolls along Griswold Springs Road south of the Fox River (Sandwich CUSD 430); Solitude Lakes is a private gated community around spring-fed lakes north of US 34. Each has its own association character and jurisdiction quirks — unincorporated parcels, private roads, water rights — that belong in the diligence file, and we know them lot by lot.
Appraisal strategy matters most at this tier: comps are scarce, so we assemble the comp package for the appraiser rather than hoping. Survey the parcel, inspect wells and septic, review covenants on gated roads, and price insurance for river-adjacent settings early. If you’re building or renovating to this tier, we can advise on what the Plano resale market will actually reward.
Sellers at this tier should expect a marketing cycle measured in months and a buyer pool measured in dozens, not hundreds — presentation and reach matter disproportionately. Buyers should know that when a well-priced acreage custom lists, the other three buyers waiting for it are real. Tell us what you’re holding out for and we’ll watch the off-market channels.
