Ladera Wylie, Wylie, TX

About Ladera Wylie

Ladera Wylie is in Wylie, in the Dallas & Northern Suburbs region of Texas. Developer: Ladera Living. Status: Currently selling. Marketed as a 55+ active-adult community; the age and occupancy rules are set in its governing documents.

Ladera Wylie is a gated community from Ladera Living in Wylie. The community page gives a sales office at 1609 Bella Way, Wylie, Texas 75098, and describes the community as a new neighborhood of only 159 homes located between Lake Ray Hubbard and Lavon Lake, with quick access to Plano, Garland and Dallas and a short trip to historic downtown Wylie. It says a VIP release ended with 10 homesites sold and 8 Founding Homeowners at a gathering, and that models are now open. The page lists the community under the developer's 55-plus communities, but its own text does not use the label; the developer's FAQ says its communities are age restricted. The page's phrase for Wylie is a perfect landing place for grandparents.

The homes are one-story plans with two bedrooms, from the 1,322-square-foot Milan to the 2,498-square-foot Castella, plus one two-story three-bedroom plan, the Verona 2, at 2,905 square feet. The center of the community is planned to be The HUB, which the developer describes as the clubhouse and the heart of the community, with a resort pool and spa, a fitness studio, a wellness suite for a visiting therapist, lighted pickleball courts, an outdoor kitchen and entertaining area and trails. The page describes the amenities as planned and does not give opening dates, so a buyer should ask which amenities are open on the day of purchase and when the rest are scheduled. It also notes that residents can walk around Monroe Lake and that Country Club Cafe is across the street.

Because the community is at an early stage, a buyer is choosing a lot in a construction site as much as a floor plan. Ladera's FAQ says its communities have only 150 to 275 homes each, so Ladera Wylie's 159 homes sit at the small end of the range. Ask about the schedule for remaining phases, construction traffic near an occupied home and when homeowners take over the association from the developer. Wylie's own profile, including its tax freeze and its freestanding emergency room, is on the Wylie page.

Age restrictions at Ladera Wylie

The community page does not itself use the 55+ label, but the developer lists it among its 55-plus communities and the developer's FAQ applies to all Ladera communities. Ladera Living markets the community as a gated 55+ community, and the developer's FAQ describes its communities as age restricted: it says neighbors are designed to be 55+, calls each an age-restricted community and tells buyers to review each community's by-laws before purchasing a home. The specific occupancy rules, how occupancy is verified and any exceptions come from the recorded community documents, which a buyer should obtain from the sales office and review before contracting. The FAQ also says grandchildren may visit, that longer stays for vacations may be limited to two weeks or, for children under 18, up to two to three months, and that short-term rentals such as Airbnb and Vrbo are prohibited in Ladera communities.

HOA and fees at Ladera Wylie

Homeowners association dues, any one-time capital or transfer fees, and what the dues cover are available from the sales office and the community's recorded documents; request the current dues schedule and budget in writing. The developer's pages list lawn maintenance and a gated entrance among the community's features, but they give no dollar amount or effective date, so no fee is stated here.

Ask who controls the association during build-out, whether a reserve study exists for the pool, spa, clubhouse and gates, and how the association will pay for amenities that are still planned. The guide to HOA, condo and club fees lists questions to ask.

Wylie lies in Collin, Rockwall and Dallas counties, and the community page does not name the county or taxing units for the lots. Collin Central Appraisal District's 2026 table lists the City of Wylie at $0.5965540 per $100 of taxable value, with a $30,000 local over-65 amount and a freeze flag of Yes, and Wylie ISD at $1.1752; the city's tax page confirms the rate adopted for fiscal year 2026-2027. Confirm the county, school district and any municipal utility, management or public improvement district assessments for the specific lot on the title commitment and tax statement. The guide to MUDs, PIDs and special districts explains how such assessments work.

Healthcare near Ladera Wylie

Baylor Scott & White operates a freestanding emergency room at 2300 W. FM 544, Suite 100, in Wylie, near FM 544 and Woodbridge Parkway, which says it is open 24 hours a day. Its own page notes that a freestanding emergency facility charges rates comparable to a hospital emergency room, may charge a facility fee and may not be in a patient's insurance network. It is not an inpatient hospital. The developer's page describes the area's shopping and dining but names no hospital, so measure the route from the lot to the emergency room and to the inpatient hospitals described on the Wylie and region pages.

Airport access from Ladera Wylie

Dallas Fort Worth International Airport describes itself as welcoming more than 86 million customers a year, with 193 domestic and 77 international nonstop destinations. The airport and developer pages do not publish drive times from Wylie, so measure the route at the hours you would travel.
