A mature community built around golf, trails, and 32 distinct villages.
Development of Lantana began in 1999, and the first residents moved in on July 31, 2001, into the original Larkspur and Sandlin villages. Today the community spans 1,750 acres with roughly 4,000 planned homes, more than 3,400 of them built, and about 600 lots remaining in select later villages. The community has earned Dallas Builders Association Community of the Year honors on multiple occasions and celebrated its 25th anniversary in July 2026.
What separates Lantana from newer Denton County developments is maturity and design intentionality. Streets are lined with mature trees (more than 10,000 were planted as part of the original landscape plan), the 32 villages each carry their own architectural character and lot sizes, and the amenity package has been operating and refined for more than two decades. For buyers who want a community that already feels like home rather than one still being built, Lantana is one of the strongest established options in the corridor.
The community sits between FM 407 and FM 1171 in unincorporated Denton County with 76226 mailing addresses. That location puts daily shopping in Argyle and Bartonville minutes away, connects easily to I-35W, and leaves Lake Lewisville a short drive to the east.
Between Argyle, Bartonville, and Flower Mound.
Lantana occupies a strategic position in southern Denton County between the communities of Argyle, Bartonville, and Flower Mound. It is unincorporated with 76226 mailing addresses, so daily life connects outward to the shops and routes of all three neighbors.
- FM 407 and FM 1171 access: these two primary corridors connect residents to Argyle, Bartonville, Flower Mound, Highland Village, and the wider DFW employment landscape, including the Legacy West and Grandscape corridors.
- I-35W proximity: the community offers convenient access to I-35W, the primary north-south artery connecting Denton County to Fort Worth, Alliance, and the DFW Airport corridor.
- DFW Airport and corporate centers: DFW International Airport, the Texas Instruments campus in Dallas, and major employers across Collin and Tarrant Counties are within a reasonable commute.
- Lake Lewisville: boating, fishing, camping, and waterfront dining are a short drive east, adding a genuine outdoor-recreation dimension to daily life.

A village for nearly every buyer profile.
Lantana is organized into 32 neighborhoods, each with its own architectural guidelines, lot sizes, and price positioning. Original villages such as Larkspur and Sandlin offer mature streetscapes; Bellaire and Wisteria sit along the golf course; Bandera offers executive homes on larger lots; Barrington is one of the newer sections; and Copper Creek Estates is a gated neighborhood within the community.
Because most of Lantana is built out, the majority of available homes are resales, with new construction limited to select later villages. Buyers typically evaluate village character, lot position, condition, and upgrades alongside price, which is where address-level knowledge of the community matters most.

Lantana is a split-ISD community. Verify by address.
The majority of Lantana zones to Denton ISD, where four of five assigned campuses sit inside the community itself: elementary assignments such as Adkins, Blanton, or E.P. Rayzor feed Tom Harpool Middle School, then John H. Guyer High School. Newer Lantana sections are zoned to Argyle ISD, typically Hilltop Elementary, Argyle Middle School, and Argyle High School.
School attendance boundaries, feeder patterns, and district assignments can change as both districts grow.
