01 - About Barrington & Lantana
Barrington is an established residential section within the Lantana master-planned community in Denton County, Texas. It offers access to the broader Lantana lifestyle, including community pools, trails, parks, fitness amenities, sports courts, neighborhood events, and the overall master-planned setting that makes Lantana one of the most recognizable communities in the 76226 area.
Barrington homes are resale properties, so buyers should look closely at updates, maintenance history, HVAC age, roof age, foundation performance, drainage, landscaping, builder features, seller disclosures, and inspection results.
Seay Realty Group helps buyers and sellers understand how Barrington fits within the larger Lantana real estate market, including home features, pricing strategy, resale considerations, school verification, HOA expectations, and property-specific value drivers.
LOCAL INSIGHT WITH SEAY REALTY GROUP
Barrington offers a newer resale-home profile than many of Lantana’s earliest sections. Buyers often compare Barrington homes based on builder, floor plan, lot position, finish level, garage configuration, backyard usability, and how well the layout supports everyday living.
For sellers, Barrington’s value story is not just “a home in Lantana.” It is the home’s condition, updates, presentation, lot, floor plan, and how it compares against current active competition in Barrington and nearby Lantana neighborhoods.
Seay Realty Group has been part of the Barrington story since the beginning. We’ve represented buyers who fell in love with the neighborhood while it was still under construction, and we’ve helped longtime residents sell their Barrington homes when it was time for their next chapter. That means we’ve walked nearly every phase of this community — Phase A through Phase C — and watched it grow from new construction into one of Lantana’s most established newer sections.
That kind of hands-on experience matters when you’re buying or selling in Barrington. Seay Realty Group’s agents know that Highland Homes and Coventry were the premiere builders in the Barrington community, and understand your builder’s features from start to finish.
Barrington is one of Lantana’s newer sections, located within the Lantana master-planned community in Denton County, Texas. The neighborhood is accessed off Lantana Trail from FM 407 (Justin Road), with homes found along streets including Haverford Lane, Trinidad Way, Terrel Street, Maya Drive, and Copper Canyon Road. Barrington was developed in phases — including Barrington Addition Phase A and Phase C — with construction beginning around 2018.
For buyers comparing Lantana neighborhoods, Barrington’s appeal is often tied to its newer construction, energy-efficient building standards, and proximity to green space and walking trails. As with any Lantana neighborhood, property-specific location matters, especially for buyers who care about greenbelt views, trail access, drive patterns, or privacy.
LOCAL INSIGHT WITH SEAY REALTY GROUP
Barrington is one of the more walkable pockets of Lantana, with several homes sitting right at the entrance to a scenic walking trail or backing to the community’s heavily wooded Loving Branch greenbelt. Buyers who prioritize outdoor living tend to gravitate toward the Haverford Lane and Trinidad Way homesites, where lots backing to green space come at a premium.
Because Barrington was built more recently than many of Lantana’s original sections, residents also enjoy being close to newer common-area upgrades and the North Amenity Center, without giving up access to the rest of Lantana’s five pools, tennis courts, and trail system. It’s a great fit for buyers who want the established Lantana lifestyle in a newer-built home.
Yes. Barrington is part of Lantana, TX, a master-planned community in Denton County. Homes in Barrington are generally subject to the Lantana Community Association, architectural standards, HOA rules, and community guidelines.
Subdivision labels can vary across MLS records, appraisal district records, legal descriptions, and closing documents. Buyers should verify the exact subdivision, governing documents, resale certificate, deed restrictions, and HOA rules for the specific home they are considering.
Barrington should be compared with other Lantana neighborhoods based on home age, square footage, lot size, floor plan, updates, builder, garage configuration, proximity to amenities, traffic patterns, school zoning, and current resale inventory.
Compared with some of Lantana’s earliest neighborhoods, Barrington may appeal to buyers who prefer a newer resale home. Compared with some of Lantana’s larger-home sections, Barrington may offer a more approachable price point, depending on home size, condition, lot, and finishes.
The reviewed closed sales showed homes generally ranging from approximately 2,141 to 3,734 square feet, with closed sale prices ranging from approximately $520,000 to $760,000.

LOCAL INSIGHT WITH SEAY REALTY GROUP
Barrington’s value can change quickly from one home to the next. A buyer may see two homes with similar square footage, but the floor plan, finish package, ceiling heights, kitchen layout, storage, garage design, lot, and outdoor living space can create very different value.
For sellers, Barrington homes need marketing that explains both the property and the Lantana lifestyle. Buyers are not just comparing bedroom counts. They are comparing condition, updates, layout, schools, HOA benefits, commute patterns, amenities, and how the home lives day to day.
Barrington is a resale neighborhood within the Lantana master-planned community. Buyers looking in Barrington should expect existing homes rather than new-construction inventory.
This can be appealing for buyers who prefer a newer established Lantana location, completed neighborhood setting, existing landscaping, possible patios or outdoor living additions, and owner improvements that may already be in place.
As with any resale neighborhood, condition can vary from home to home. Buyers should carefully review updates, maintenance history, roof age, HVAC systems, foundation performance, drainage, seller disclosures, and inspection results before purchasing.

The Barrington market is property-specific. In the 3-year CMA, closed sales averaged approximately 99.1% of list price, with a median sale-to-list ratio of approximately 100.0%.
Closed days on market ranged from very quick sales to longer marketing periods, depending on pricing, condition, updates, timing, buyer demand, and competing inventory.
This means pricing strategy matters. A well-prepared, accurately priced Barrington home may draw stronger attention, while homes priced ahead of the market or needing updates may take longer to sell.
Texas is a non-disclosure state, which means final closed-sale prices are not publicly available the same way they are in some other states. That makes national real estate portals and automated home estimates less reliable for neighborhood-specific pricing.
For Barrington sellers, accurate pricing should be based on MLS-supported comparable sales, current active competition, pending activity, property condition, updates, floor plan, lot features, and current buyer demand — not just broad online estimates.
That is especially important in a neighborhood like Barrington, where two homes with similar square footage can have different values based on builder, finish level, maintenance, floor plan functionality, backyard appeal, and timing.
03 - HOA, Fees & Taxes
Yes. Barrington homes are part of the Lantana Community Association. The current HOA dues commonly reflected for Lantana are $131.00 per month, but buyers should verify the current amount directly with the HOA before relying on any published figure.
Buyers should review the current HOA resale certificate, governing documents, architectural guidelines, community rules, and fee schedule before closing.
HOA dues and inclusions can change, so the most accurate source is the current resale certificate and direct HOA confirmation.
Local Insight — Seay Realty Group
HOA rates are reviewed and can be adjusted annually by the Lantana Community Association board. We always pull the current resale certificate for clients so there are no surprises at closing.
Lantana Community Association dues typically support community operations and access to amenities such as swimming pools, fitness facilities, sports courts, hike-and-bike trails, parks, common-area maintenance, and neighborhood standards.
Based on local community knowledge, Lantana HOA dues have historically included items such as:
Vector Security alarm monitoring and system installation
Front-yard maintenance
Community amenities
Common-area maintenance
Front-yard maintenance has historically included mowing, edging, pruning, weeding, and seasonal fertilization. Rear-yard maintenance may be handled separately. Buyers should verify all current services directly with the HOA before relying on any published information.
LOCAL INSIGHT FROM SEAY REALTY GROUP:
Based on our team’s residents that live in Lantana, HOA dues currently cover:
~ Vector Security 24 hour alarm monitoring and system installation
~Front yard maintenance**
~Amenities
~Common area maintenance
**Front yard maintenance includes mowing, edging, pruning, weeding and fertilization 3 times yearly. Rear yard maintenance may be negotiated on a case-by-case basis with Gold Landscaping at (972) 241-7663.
Front Yard Maintenance Costs
(This cost is based on 40 visits a year) Landscape costs have been annualized and incorporated into the monthly assessments listed above.
Fire/EMS Assessment – Lantana residents pay an annual fee, through the Association, to the Argyle Volunteer Fire Department (AVFD) for Fire and EMS service. This fee is based on the appraised value of your home and the rate charged by the AVFD. For additional information, please contact the Association’s office at 940-728-1660.
As always, before placing an offer on a home in Lantana’s Laurel, contact the HOA directly for any adjustments that have been made to HOA incusions and fees.
Yes — because Lantana is unincorporated, residents pay a small annual assessment, billed through the HOA, that funds fire and EMS coverage from the Argyle Volunteer Fire Department, calculated based on the home’s appraised value rather than a flat rate. Membership at Lantana Golf Club is also separate and optional, on top of standard HOA dues. Contact Lantana Golf Club directly for their most up to date pricing.
There may be additional costs beyond standard HOA dues depending on the property, current HOA structure, and community assessments. Buyers should review the HOA resale certificate, title documents, tax records, lender estimates, and seller disclosures.
Property taxes vary by property and should be reviewed carefully before purchase. Buyers should evaluate county tax records, applicable exemptions, estimated post-purchase taxes, HOA dues, insurance, and any community-related assessments.
Online mortgage calculators may not accurately include property taxes, HOA dues, insurance, or other ownership costs. A buyer’s true monthly payment should be calculated using property-specific information.
The short answer is yes. Lantana Community is a MUD district and taxes include allocations to emergency services. Special assessments or district-related fees should be verified by property. Buyers should review title documents, tax records, HOA information, seller disclosures, and lender estimates to understand the full cost of ownership.
Before purchasing in Barrington, buyers should confirm whether any additional assessments, community fees, or district charges apply to the specific property.

Some Lantana homes are near golf-course areas, while others are located deeper within residential sections, however Barrington’s homes do not have golf course lots.
If golf-course proximity, views, or access are important, buyers should review the specific property location, lot orientation, and any applicable golf club membership details.

Is Lantana a pet-friendly community?
Yes. Lantana is a walkable, trail-heavy master-planned community, and pets are very much part of everyday life here. With miles of hike-and-bike trails, greenbelts, sidewalks throughout Barrington and the surrounding sections, and multiple neighborhood parks, dog owners have plenty of room to walk, jog, and exercise pets without leaving the community.
Are there dog parks or off-leash areas in Lantana?
Lantana’s trails, greenbelts, and neighborhood parks are popular for walking dogs, but leash rules apply throughout the community’s common areas and sidewalks, consistent with the Lantana Community Association’s general conduct guidelines.
For dedicated off-leash dog parks, several are within a short drive of Barrington, including options in nearby Highland Village, Flower Mound, and Corinth — a convenient option for pet owners who want a fenced, off-leash space in addition to on-leash Lantana’s trail system.
Does the Lantana HOA have pet rules or restrictions?
Barrington homes fall under the Lantana Community Association, and like most HOA communities, there are typically guidelines around leash requirements in common areas, pet waste cleanup, and general nuisance/noise provisions. Some HOAs also include breed, size, or per-household pet limits in their governing documents, however Lantana’s governing documents do not currently have breed or size restrictions for its homeowners.
LOCAL INSIGHT WITH SEAY REALTY GROUP
Pets are a big part of daily life in Lantana — you’ll see dogs on nearly every evening walk through Bandera and along the community trails. If you’re relocating with pets, we always recommend pulling the current HOA pet guidelines as part of your due diligence, right alongside architectural standards and resale certificate review, so there are no surprises after you move in.
Where can pet owners find vets, groomers, and pet supplies near Barrington?
Barrington’s location within Lantana puts residents within a short drive of veterinary clinics, groomers, boarding facilities, and pet supply retailers in nearby Highland Village, Argyle, Flower Mound, and Denton. Several local pet-sitting and dog-walking services also serve the Lantana area directly, which is a popular option for residents who travel or work long hours.
As with any pet-related provider, buyers and residents should confirm current hours, availability, and services directly, since offerings can change.
Is Lantana a good fit for buyers with larger or multiple dogs?
Lantana’s trail network, open green spaces, and lower-density neighborhood feel tend to appeal to buyers with active dogs or multiple pets. That said, yard size, fencing, and lot orientation vary significantly across Barrington and the rest of Lantana, so buyers should walk the actual property with their pets’ needs in mind — not just the neighborhood as a whole.
Several of our Seay Realty Group team members have dogs in their prospective neighborhoods in Lantana, and all agree that the K9 community in Lantana is actively thriving. Just ask Maddie (our marketing director’s rottweiler), Penny (our executive assistant’s minature dachshund) or Gary (our listing coordinator’s labrador)- Lantana has some added amenities for pet owners, such as conveniently located disposal bags and trash containers located throughout the trails and along the sidewalks.
Seay Realty Group can help pet-owning buyers narrow in on Barrington listings with the yard space, fencing, and proximity to trails or greenbelts that fit their pets’ lifestyle.

- Adjustment strategy if needed
In a resale neighborhood like Barrington, the goal is to help buyers clearly understand why your home stands out compared with other available options. When you’re considering listing your home on the real estate market, contact Seay Realty Group for a no-obligation consultation. Our agents can help you understand what the current market looks like at the time you’re considering selling, and also help you identify what steps you may want to take to prepare AND what things you would not need to do to your home. This can save you time and money, before you ever begin the process.
The time it takes to sell a Barrington home depends on pricing, condition, updates, marketing, floor plan, timing, and buyer demand at the moment the home is listed.
In the 3-year Barrington CMA, closed days on market ranged from 1 day to 326 days, with an average of approximately 54 days and a median of approximately 40 days.
That wide range shows why preparation and pricing matter. Some homes sell quickly when they are well positioned, while others take longer if they need updates, face stronger competition, or are priced ahead of the market.
For established Lantana resale homes, buyers tend to respond well to clean presentation, updated finishes, strong photography, accurate pricing, clear disclosure of improvements, and a marketing plan that explains both the home and the Lantana lifestyle.
Important seller preparation items include:
Fresh interior paint where needed
Updated lighting where appropriate
Professional cleaning
Decluttering and staging
Landscape refresh
Minor repair completion
HVAC, roof, and system documentation
Builder and improvement documentation
Pool service documentation, if applicable
High-quality photography
Video and social media exposure
Local SEO and AI-search-optimized listing exposure
Clear explanation of Lantana amenities and Barrington market context
Buyers considering Barrington should look beyond bedroom count and price. Important evaluation points include:
- Roof age
- HVAC age
- Foundation performance
- Drainage
- Window condition
- Flooring updates
- Kitchen updates
- Bathroom updates
- Pool condition, if applicable
- Fence condition
- Lot orientation
- Backyard usability
- Garage configuration
- Floor plan functionality
- Seller disclosures
- HOA documents
- Tax estimates
- Insurance costs
Because Barrington is a newer, established resale neighborhood, two homes with similar square footage may have different values depending on condition, updates, layout, lot appeal, and maintenance history.
