West Egg is a cinematic Gatsby-inspired cottage near historic downtown McKinney, designed for photography, film and video productions, editorial shoots, brand content, boudoir, bridal, and creative projects seeking a distinctive backdrop.
The restored 1930s cottage blends Jazz Age glamour with intimate vintage character — layered antiques, warm wood tones, dramatic wallpaper, moody lighting, velvet, crystal, and richly detailed spaces that photograph beautifully.
The home was intentionally designed to create atmosphere, texture, and visually distinct moments throughout for photographers, creatives, and small productions looking for something more memorable than a standard studio.
The space includes multiple styled rooms, a checkerboard kitchen, clawfoot tub, dramatic fireplace, vintage furnishings, and abundant character throughout. Off-street parking and ground-level access make load-in simple for small productions and creative teams.
