The Huxley is an apartment community at 1802 Apollo Road, Garland, TX 75044, with 1, 2, and 3 bedroom floor plans ranging from 698 to 1,095 square feet near the Spring Creek corridor. Select homes include a private balcony, patio, or porch, so renters who want outdoor space should confirm the exact home’s feature list with the leasing office before applying.
In this part of Garland, Spring Creek is a real quality-of-life landmark, not just a street name. The creek corridor includes public natural areas such as Spring Creek Forest Preserve, a City of Garland green space known for wooded trails, native habitat, and a quieter setting than the surrounding retail and commuter roads. It tends to matter most to renters who want easy access to trees, walking, birding, or a simple outdoor reset without leaving the Garland and Richardson area.
Daily travel here is practical and mostly car-oriented. From Apollo Road, residents commonly use Holford Road, Shiloh Road, North Garland Avenue, Arapaho Road, and the President George Bush Turnpike to reach nearby shopping, restaurants, offices, and regional routes. Dallas College Richland Campus is approximately 6 miles away, and DFW International Airport is the closest major airport named for the community, although airport trips should be planned around traffic.
The floor plan mix is straightforward: the A1 is a 1 bedroom, 1 bath home at 698 square feet, the B1 is a 2 bedroom, 2 bath home at 1,006 square feet, and the C1 is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home at 1,095 square feet. If you are comparing spacious upscale apartments with private balconies near Spring Creek, the most useful question is not only which layout fits, but which available apartment includes the outdoor space and finish package you want. Current pricing, deposits, lease terms, and availability are best confirmed directly with the leasing office.
Inside the homes, the features that support a more comfortable daily routine include air conditioning, heating, ceiling fans, high-speed internet access, cable-ready setup, window coverings, vinyl flooring, dining rooms, walk-in closets, tub and shower combinations, dishwashers, disposals, pantries, ovens, ranges, and refrigerators. Select homes may also offer a washer and dryer, storage space, an ice maker, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a microwave, an office, a den, a balcony, a patio, or a porch, and those select-home details are worth verifying before you choose a unit.
The community amenities are especially helpful if you want usable outdoor and shared space without making every errand or workout a separate trip. The Huxley offers a fitness center, pool, courtyard, grilling area, lounge, multi-use room, package service, online resident services, laundry facilities, on-site maintenance, an on-site property manager, a fenced lot, and a pet play area. The community is pet-friendly, with a stated maximum of two pets per apartment home and pet fees, pet rent, and breed or weight guidelines that should be reviewed with the office.
The honest trade-off is that this is not the best fit for someone who wants a dense, rail-adjacent, highly walkable urban setting where most daily needs can be handled without a car. The Spring Creek setting gives you access to a greener part of Garland, but grocery runs, commuting, school trips, and many restaurant visits will usually depend on driving, rideshare, or careful transit planning.
If private outdoor space near Spring Creek is high on your list, schedule a tour or contact The Huxley’s leasing office to compare available A1, B1, and C1 homes and confirm which apartments include a balcony, patio, or porch.
