A small residential community with ample amenities

River Bend is a well-established neighborhood bisected by small, interlocking bodies of water. While these water pockets aren't designed for recreation, they provide waterfront views for a few residents. River Bend most notably features a central park and top-rated schools within walking or biking distance. "My kids went to Saigling Elementary School, so we used to hang out at Cheyenne Park a lot," says Realtor Shannon Beitchman of Compass RE Texas, LLC. Beitchman moved from California to Texas in 2016 and initially lived in River Bend with her family. "We met a lot of people at the park. It was a really great way to get to know the neighborhood." And River Bend has a palpable sense of community. Friends of River Bend is a volunteer group that gathers residents to help build a stronger sense of community and promote neighborhood safety. "You get a really good feeling of community in River Bend," Beitchman says. "And it's a prime location to work, live and play."

Well-built homes from the 1980s

River Bend was primarily developed throughout the 1980s, so its homes have been around for a few decades. Each home has its own flair; a few are mid-century modern homes or ranch styles, while others are entirely custom to the original owner. However, buyers will commonly find homes with low-slung pitched or hipped roofs that provide stability to the home. Most homes in the neighborhood have rear-entry garages accessible from back alleys, giving residents added privacy. Homes in River Bend are spacious, typically offering at least 2,000 square feet with four bedrooms. Lot sizes often range between a quarter and half-acre, featuring manicured front lawns and in-ground pools in the backyard. Sidewalks line the streets, offering walkability for residents in River Bend. Housing prices range anywhere between $350,000 to $700,000.

Warm days at Cheyenne Park

Cheyenne Park is the neighborhood hub for sports. "The park has a ton of activities for the kids," Beitchman says. "Plus, there's a sports game every weekend." This community park is behind Saigling Elementary and has three baseball and five soccer fields. Local sports organizations use the fields to host practices and games. There is also a 0.6-mile walking path surrounding the fields and a playground for kids to explore. The nearby Plano Aquatic Center is another popular spot for community recreation. This facility includes a 25-yard indoor lap pool and an outdoor spray ground. The Aquatic Center can hold events like birthday parties and family reunions or offer a relaxed respite from the Texas heat. The center also offers swimming lessons throughout the year.
