A Community Rooted in Nature
Painted Tree is built around the natural beauty of McKinney's eastern corridor — following the East Fork of the Trinity River with 200 acres of protected parks, open spaces, and a stunning 20-acre lake at its heart. Unlike communities that bolt on amenities as an afterthought, nature is woven into every street, trail, and gathering space at Painted Tree.
The community features distinct neighborhoods — Woodlands, Village, and others — each with its own character and price point. From $300K townhomes in the Village District to $700K+ single-family homes on 60-foot lots, Painted Tree serves a wide range of buyers while maintaining a cohesive, design-forward aesthetic.
Builders & Pricing
Painted Tree features some of the most respected names in new construction: Trophy Signature Homes, Coventry Homes, David Weekley Homes, Normandy Homes, Southgate Homes, CbJeni Homes, and more. This builder diversity allows buyers to choose the level of customization, lot size, and price point that fits their needs — all within the same exceptional community.
Townhomes in the Village District start from the $300s, while single-family homes on 40', 50', and 60' lots range from the $500s into the $800K+ range. With McKinney's low property tax rate compared to surrounding cities, the value proposition is exceptional.
Schools & Location
Painted Tree falls within McKinney ISD, a well-regarded district known for its commitment to academic excellence and robust extracurricular programs. The community's location in northeast McKinney provides easy access to US-380, Highway 75, and the growing retail and dining corridor along McKinney's eastern edge — while remaining far enough from the city center to feel genuinely peaceful.
