By Shannon Miles, GRI, CLHMS · Last updated September 16, 2026
McCreary Meadows is Huntington Homes' luxury new construction community in Parker, Texas, and it answers a question many Collin County buyers are asking: can you get acreage-style living without leaving the city limits? Homes here start around $1,299,990 and sit on one-acre homesites, with semi-custom floor plans that run from roughly 3,899 to 5,196 square feet. Huntington Homes, a luxury Texas builder founded in 1991 and a brand of Highland Homes, brings the customization and finishes that set this community apart.
If you are exploring new construction near Plano, Allen, or McKinney and want wide-open space with top-rated schools and easy DFW access, here is everything you need to know about McCreary Meadows, what makes it unique, and how to buy here with your own representation from the start.
Where is McCreary Meadows?
McCreary Meadows is in Parker, Texas, a growing small city in Collin County located just northeast of Plano and about 20 miles north of downtown Dallas. Parker keeps the small-town character and tree-lined streets that North Texas buyers love, while U.S. 75 keeps Allen, McKinney, and Frisco within a short drive. That combination is the community's quiet superpower: the space and calm of a rural setting, with the shopping, dining, and employment centers of the DFW metroplex close enough to use every day.
The builder: Huntington Homes
Huntington Homes is a Texas luxury and semi-custom builder with roots going back to 1991. The company was created to serve buyers who want more customization than standard production homes offer, and it delivers through higher-end craftsmanship, energy-efficient construction, and a personal level of customer service. Huntington is a brand of Highland Homes, the largest private homebuilder in Texas.
In practice, that means buyers at McCreary Meadows can tailor floor plans, finishes, and details to fit their lifestyle rather than choosing from a fixed menu, and every home is backed by the standard Texas 1-2-10 warranty covering workmanship, major systems, and structure.
Floor plans and pricing
Huntington Homes builds approximately 3,899 to 5,196 square feet at McCreary Meadows, with 4 to 5 bedrooms and 4 to 7 bathrooms depending on the plan, and most homes include a three-car garage. Popular plans include the Aspen, roughly 3,899 square feet with 5 bedrooms and 5.5 baths, and the Willow, the community's largest plan at about 5,196 square feet.
Pricing runs from about $1,299,990 into the $1.6 million range depending on the plan, lot, and selected upgrades, with individual plans such as the Juniper near $1,375,990 and the Briarwood near $1,465,990. Every home sits on a spacious one-acre homesite, which is the detail that sets McCreary Meadows apart from standard neighborhood lots.
Schools and education
McCreary Meadows homes are zoned to the Plano Independent School District, one of the most highly regarded districts in North Texas, according to Huntington Homes. Families should confirm the exact school assignment for their specific home site and visit campuses in person before making a decision. For relocating DFW families, the pairing of Plano ISD schools and a one-acre homesite is the core appeal: the school district you want, without giving up room to roam.
What makes McCreary Meadows unique
Most Collin County new construction is built on 40-foot and 50-foot lots. McCreary Meadows does the opposite. One-acre homesites give each home genuine separation from its neighbors, room for trees, space for a shop or outbuildings, and a quiet, estate-like feel you rarely find this close to Dallas.
Huntington Homes has not packed the community with clubhouse-style amenities; the amenity here is the land itself. McCreary Meadows sits minutes from the restaurants, shopping, and parks of Allen, McKinney, and Frisco.
Why buyers should consider McCreary Meadows
McCreary Meadows is the luxury end of the new construction market we cover across Northeast Texas. For comparison, Forestbrook Estates in Paris, Texas is D.R. Horton's flagship community with homes in the $200s, a different price point for buyers who value the Northeast Texas lifestyle and lower cost of living. McCreary Meadows serves buyers who want Collin County schools, DFW proximity, and a semi-custom home on acreage.
We represent buyers at both ends of that spectrum, and the same advice applies at every price point: the builder has their own sales team, and you need your own representation.
What buyers should know before visiting McCreary Meadows
The most important step is to set up your buyer's representation before your first visit. Huntington Homes, like every major builder, has a strict registration policy: if you register with the builder's sales team without your own agent on file, you may not be able to add representation later.
The builder's sales team works for Huntington Homes. We work for you. As new construction buyer specialists with the Shannon Miles Group at eXp Realty, we register your representation before the first visit, review the contract, coordinate inspections, and negotiate on your behalf. Because the builder pays the buyer's agent commission, our representation costs you nothing out of pocket.
The next step
McCreary Meadows is a strong fit for established buyers, growing families, and DFW professionals who want Plano ISD schools, a one-acre homesite, and a home built their way.
Reach out to Shannon and Scott Miles before you visit the community. We will register your representation from the start, walk you through the available plans and homesites, and help you make a confident decision that protects your investment.
