UT Dallas Location Details

Richmond is an off-campus apartment community at 19251 Preston Road in Dallas. UT Dallas is a public research university at 800 West Campbell Road in Richardson.

Richmond is not on the UT Dallas campus. Prospective residents should compare a current route from the property to their exact classroom, office, or campus destination rather than relying on an unmeasured distance or travel-time claim.

Current route options can vary by destination, time, construction, and traffic. The article does not claim a fixed route or commute time from Richmond to UT Dallas.

Commute Routes and Campus Access

UT Dallas spans multiple campus destinations, so visitors should use the university’s current directions page and the address of their exact destination when planning a trip.

Travel conditions can change by time and day. Prospective residents should compare current directions for their schedule rather than relying on a fixed route or commute estimate.

UT Dallas currently describes the Silver Line UT Dallas Station and Comet Cruiser for campus access. That university information does not establish direct transit service from Richmond, so riders should compare a current trip from 19251 Preston Road to their exact campus destination.

Floor Plan Options

Richmond offers one- and two-bedroom apartment homes. Current availability and home-specific features should be verified for the exact apartment under consideration.

The one-bedroom layouts are the smaller household option at Richmond. The two-bedroom layouts provide an additional bedroom, which may be relevant if you plan to share an apartment, want a separate room for work or study, or prefer a layout with more separation between sleeping and living areas.

Because the available homes can differ by layout and feature package, the plan name alone should not be treated as a complete description of a specific apartment. The most important comparison points are the layout, the included in-home features, and where the apartment sits within the community.

In-Home Features

Richmond apartments include several features that apply across the homes described for the community. These include stainless steel appliances, brushed nickel hardware, wood-style flooring, private patios or balconies, spacious walk-in closets and linen closets, smart home door entry, exterior storage, and digital programmable thermostats.

The kitchen and interior finish details include stainless steel appliances and brushed nickel hardware. Wood-style flooring is also part of the listed in-home feature set. Private patios or balconies add an attached outdoor area to the apartment, while exterior storage provides a separate storage area outside the main interior living space.

Closet and storage features include spacious walk-in closets and linen closets. These are separate from the exterior storage feature and serve different uses inside the home.

Smart home door entry and digital programmable thermostats are also included among the apartment features. Smart home door entry relates to apartment access, while the thermostat feature controls indoor temperature settings through a programmable device.

Select-Home Features

Some features are available only in select homes. These may include vaulted ceilings, wood-burning fireplaces, built-in dry bars with open shelving, full-size washers and dryers, extended sunrooms, bay windows, USB outlets, and quartz countertops.

The select-home qualification is important because these details are not stated as universal features in every apartment. For example, full-size washers and dryers are a select-home feature, while the community also has two clothes care centers available as a shared amenity. Those are different laundry arrangements and should not be assumed to apply to the same apartment without reviewing the specific home.

Community Amenities

Richmond has a 24/7 fitness center on site. The all-hours access is the defining detail of this amenity, since it is available outside a limited daytime schedule.

The community also has two resort-style pools with poolside cabanas. Outdoor amenities include grilling stations, a pickleball court, and a playground. These are shared community spaces rather than in-home features.

Richmond also includes a clubhouse with a business center and Wi-Fi in common areas. The business center is part of the clubhouse amenity, while common-area Wi-Fi applies outside the individual apartments in designated shared spaces.

Pets, Parking, and Daily Services

Richmond is pet-friendly and includes a dog park on site. The dog park is a dedicated community feature for residents with dogs.

Covered parking is available at Richmond. The community also provides parcel lockers, which support package delivery management, and door-to-door trash pickup.

Two clothes care centers are available on site. This is separate from the full-size washers and dryers that may be included in select homes. Richmond also offers 24-hour emergency maintenance for urgent maintenance needs.

Conclusion

Richmond is an off-campus apartment community at 19251 Preston Road in Dallas, while UT Dallas is at 800 West Campbell Road in Richardson. Richmond offers one- and two-bedroom homes, a 24/7 fitness center, pools, pet-friendly amenities, parking options, and current in-home features. Prospective residents should compare a current route and verify the exact features of an available home.
