Colleyville

Emerging from a number of small, rural settlements along the Cotton Belt Route, Colleyville was originally known as Bransford when Dr. Lilburn Howard Colley settled there in 1880. He was a prominent area physician and a veteran of the Union Army. In 1914, when Walter G. Couch opened a grocery store near Dr. Colley's home, the community was renamed Colleyville in his honor.

The communities, most of which started as agricultural areas, offer convenience Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. Today, these towns, which retain their unique atmospheres, are a popular choice for buyers who want the convenience of a Mid-Cities location and the serenity of life in the country.
