Northlake is suburban community near Denton amenities
Northlake was once little more than a handful of ranches and a lot of open space. But these days, instead of mud-covered boots tromping the land, bailing hay and herding cattle, you'll find brand-new Nikes strolling wide sidewalks, walking dogs and pushing baby strollers in a series of master-planned communities. "I like to call it 'distant suburban' because you feel like you're in the country, but it's close to a lot of things like Alliance Town Center, the Amazon warehouses and downtown Denton," says Bianca Callahan of RJ Williams & Company RE LLC., a Realtor who was born and raised in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and sells consistently in the Northlake community. “It’s really peaceful.”
Wide sidewalks make Northlake neighborhoods ideal for daily walks.
Northlake offers large lots and open landscapes for outdoor living.
