Ash at the Branch is at 4646 Amesbury Drive in Dallas, Texas, and offers designer apartments near Dallas Arboretum with fitness center and pool amenities on site. The community’s wellness center uses Technogym equipment, and the pool is a resort-style pool with tanning areas. The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden is at 8525 Garland Road on White Rock Lake, making it a realistic neighborhood destination for weekend garden visits, lake time, and seasonal events.
The Arboretum matters to renters who want more than a pretty place nearby. It is one of Dallas’s best-known public gardens, with formal garden spaces, lake views, seasonal displays such as Dallas Blooms and Autumn at the Arboretum, and the Rory Meyers Children’s Adventure Garden. If you host out-of-town guests, like morning walks around White Rock Lake, or prefer a home base with cultural and outdoor plans close by, being on this side of Dallas can be a practical advantage.
From Ash at the Branch, daily errands and outings tend to follow familiar East Dallas and Northeast Dallas routes: Amesbury Drive, Lovers Lane, Skillman Street, Mockingbird Lane, Greenville Avenue, Northwest Highway, and US-75/Central Expressway. Garland Road is the main corridor for reaching the Arboretum area and the eastern side of White Rock Lake. For dining and shopping, residents often look toward Upper Greenville, Mockingbird Station, Lakewood, and the retail around Lovers Lane and Skillman.
The floor plan mix gives you room to choose based on how you actually live, not just bedroom count. Ash at the Branch offers one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartment homes, with current plan sizes in the provided availability ranging from 631 square feet in the A1 one-bedroom to 1,596 square feet in the C1 three-bedroom, three-bath layout. There are also larger one-bedroom options, such as the 1,108-square-foot A15, and two-bedroom layouts around 1,152 to 1,200 square feet, including the B2 and B5. Current pricing, move-in dates, and deposits should be confirmed directly with the leasing office because availability changes.
Inside the apartments, the details lean useful for everyday routines: washer and dryer, air conditioning and heating, ceiling fans, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, dishwasher, disposal, ice maker, microwave, oven, range, refrigerator, pantry space, and island kitchens. The community also lists walk-in closets, window coverings, tub and shower layouts, double vanities, hardwood floors, carpet, balconies, views, built-in bookshelves, offices, and dens, although features such as layout, views, balcony placement, office or den space, and built-ins can vary by floor plan, so it is worth checking the exact home you are touring.
The amenity package is especially relevant if you searched for a home with both fitness and pool access. On site, residents have a wellness center with Technogym equipment, a resort-style pool with tanning areas, grilling stations, outdoor entertainment space with a fire pit, a rooftop lounge, an entertainment lounge with Wi-Fi, and a business center with PCs. Practical services include a parking garage, elevators, 24/7 package lockers, an online portal for rent payments and service requests, 24/7 emergency maintenance, and a dedicated resident services office.
Pet owners also have some useful support here, including a pet park and pet spa. Spruce concierge service is listed as available with an asterisk, so ask the office what services are offered, whether fees apply, and how scheduling works. If you plan to use the Arboretum area or White Rock Lake often with visitors or pets, remember that park rules, event crowds, and parking conditions can change by season.
The honest trade-off is that Ash at the Branch is not an apartment community at the Arboretum gates. If your top priority is walking out your door directly into the garden district every morning, you may prefer an address closer to Garland Road or the east side of White Rock Lake. This community is better suited to someone who wants a Dallas apartment with strong on-site amenities, access to US-75 and nearby city corridors, and the Arboretum close enough to be part of regular weekend plans.
If that balance sounds right, schedule a tour or contact the Ash at the Branch leasing office to compare current one-, two-, and three-bedroom availability and see the fitness center, pool, and specific apartment finishes in person.
