Kirkwood Hollow in Southlake, TX

Kirkwood Hollow is one of my all-time favorite neighborhoods in Southlake, and it's all because of the trees. When you drive in, the tall trees and the rolling hills give it this warm feeling, and the lots are big for Southlake. The trade-off is location. It's north of Highway 114, so Town Square is a drive.

A quick look at Kirkwood Hollow, one of my favorite Southlake neighborhoods.

What is it like to live in Kirkwood Hollow?

Kirkwood Hollow made my list of the best neighborhoods in Southlake because of its gorgeous trees. A lot of Southlake has patches of beautiful tall trees, but this north Southlake area is just gorgeous, and the hills make it stand out even more.

Outside of Clariden Ranch, Kirkwood Hollow has some of the most beautiful backyards I've seen. If you love tall trees, you'll love the drive in.

It's a smaller neighborhood with a community pool, and it has more privacy than many others. Here's a comparison I like. Shady Oaks has beautiful oaks too, but its homes are newer, so the trees in the yards aren't as big and mature as the ones in Kirkwood Hollow.

Kirkwood Hollow is covered in my Best Neighborhoods in Southlake video. I filmed it in 2022, so the prices in it have changed.

What kind of homes are in Kirkwood Hollow?

Most homes here were built in the early 2000s. In the last 12 months (as of November 2026), eight homes sold here for about $1.25 to $2.35 million. Most sold between $1.45 and $1.9 million, with a median of about $1.6 million. Just know that at the median, you should plan on renovating. I think it's worth it.

The lots are the big deal. The median lot is about six tenths of an acre, and some reach a full acre. For comparison, most Carillon homes in the $1.5 to $2 million range sit on a quarter to a third of an acre.

Resale here has been strong. When I wrote about Kirkwood Hollow in September 2026, I shared that well priced homes can sell in one to four days, and that homes had sold between 97% and 105% of list price, with a median of 100%. One renovated home listed at $2.3 million received multiple offers and sold over list price.

Because it's a smaller neighborhood, inventory stays limited, and that usually means competition when a good home comes up.

Where is Kirkwood Hollow, and how do you get around?

Kirkwood Hollow is in north Southlake, north of Highway 114 and close to the Charles Schwab campus. Quick access to 114 is a real plus on this side of Southlake.

Being north of 114 also means Town Square and Central Market are less convenient than they are from neighborhoods in the middle of town. The upside is that it's quiet.

Who is Kirkwood Hollow a good fit for?

If trees and a real backyard are your hot button, this is where I bring you first. Kirkwood Hollow works well if you:

• Want mature trees and rolling hills, which are hard to find in newer neighborhoods
• Want more than half an acre in the $1.5 to $2 million range
• Are open to renovating a home to make it yours
• Like a smaller neighborhood with a community pool

Now listen, here's the part not everyone talks about. Most homes here are more than 20 years old, so budget for updates. You'll drive to Town Square and Central Market. And because the neighborhood is small and good homes can go in days, I'd have your financing ready before the right one comes up.

Nearby neighborhoods to compare

If Kirkwood Hollow is on your list, I'd also look at these:

• Estes Park, another favorite of mine for trees, with lots of about half an acre.
• Clariden Ranch, if you want one-acre lots and big backyards. Just know it zones to Northwest ISD.
• Shady Oaks, if you want a newer home closer to Town Square and Central Market.
• Timarron, Southlake's largest master-planned community, if pools, tennis and golf matter more to you than a big lot.

For the big picture, start with my Southlake guide. I also compare Kirkwood Hollow with other neighborhoods in The Best Southlake Neighborhoods for a $1.5M to $2M Budget.
