Quiet community near Lake Ray Hubbard

Lakewood Pointe is a small suburban community in the heart of Rowlett's easternmost peninsula, just over a mile from the western shores of Lake Ray Hubbard. Surrounded by water on three sides, residents catch lake views daily. Whether commuting across Lake Ray Hubbard Bridge or paddling the trail at Paddle Point Park, it's hard for residents to miss the lake's sparkling waters. While the water intrigues buyers, the community's tucked-away location stands out. "There's not a whole lot of development over on the peninsula," says Realtor Alex Cho of United Real Estate Family. Cho has sold homes across the greater region for nearly two decades. "There's some shopping and restaurants, but it's kind of away from everything. It's a quieter area."

Various homes from the early 21st century

There's a large range of housing styles in Lakewood Pointe. "It's the full gamut. You have everything from older homes being renovated to newer, luxury homes," says Realtor Wendi Conley of M&D Real Estate. "And the price ranges are pretty widespread." Buyers will find new traditional villas, ranch styles and contemporary colonials with brick facades. Homes are built relatively close together and have manicured front yards. Built-in garages are standard, most of which are accessible behind the house through small alleys. Most streets in the neighborhood feature sidewalks where locals enjoy casual walks or bike rides to the water. A three-bedroom home is typically priced around $300,000, while four bedrooms cost anywhere from $400,000 to $600,000.

Paddling Lake Ray Hubbard

Lakewood Pointe's location near Lake Ray Hubbard makes it a popular destination for water activities. "Having the lake right there is an added perk," Cho says. Locals explore the community's shoreline on the Paddle Point Creek Paddling Trail at Paddle Point Park. This 6.4-mile trail travels around a cove of Lake Ray Hubbard, offering views of area wildlife like blue herons or egrets. Lakeside Park South features a lakefront walking trail and benches for locals looking to appreciate the water from the land. The park also features a sand volleyball court and a playground. Closer inland, Twin Star Park is a five-acre outdoor space with a large multi-purpose court used for soccer, hockey, basketball or pickleball. A walking trail surrounds the park, and there's a playground for kids to explore.

Navigating Rowlett

Most residents drive when they need to get around, and Highway 66 is the most popular route in and out of the area. "This is right off 66, so it's a super convenient area," Cho says. "Rowlett is kind of known for its traffic, so many people reroute around 66. So, it's nice living on that side of town because you're not stuck." Locals headed into downtown Rowlett have about a 4-mile trip into the city's heart. Healthcare is provided at Baylor Scott and White Medical Center. And if locals need to catch a flight, Dallas Fort Worth International Airport is about 44 miles away.
Adding to the lakeside charm of Rowlett for commuters is crossing the Lake Ray Hubbard brige.
