A new Dollar General is planned for a property that once held a single-story house in Cleburne, Texas. The proposed store would occupy the corner of North Nolan River Road and Kilpatrick Court, where a residence stood for decades before disappearing between 2014 and 2016. The property was later cleared and marketed for commercial development.
According to a filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, the project calls for a 10,640-square-foot, single-story retail building at 2001 North Nolan River Road. Construction is scheduled to begin in November 2026, with completion anticipated in April 2027. The dates remain preliminary, and an official store opening date has not been announced.
Historical Google Earth imagery and Google Street View photographs offer a fascinating look at the property’s transformation. The images below trace its journey from a residential lot with a house and mature trees to the vacant corner where Dollar General now plans to build.
In January 1995, a house occupied the corner property, surrounded by neighboring residences along Kilpatrick Court. A distinctive curved driveway connected the home to the street, while open land stretched across North Nolan River Road. The aerial provides an early look at the property before its eventual transition toward commercial development.
By January 2013, the single-story house was still standing, surrounded by mature trees, trimmed shrubs, and a spacious lawn. A white SUV was parked beside the residence. Historical aerial imagery confirms the building remained in place in 2014, but it had disappeared by 2016, leaving the property vacant.
In September 2025, the property looked dramatically different. The house, driveway, and most of the mature trees were gone, leaving a grassy lot with a prominent For Sale sign. The vacant site is now proposed for a 10,640-square-foot Dollar General store. According to a state filing, construction is scheduled to begin in November 2026, with completion anticipated in April 2027.
