Life by the lake in South Rowlett, near downtown Dallas
South Rowlett offers the appeal of waterfront living less than 20 miles from downtown Dallas. "Around the Dallas-Fort Worth area, there are only a few locations where you can be so close to a lake," says Realtor Anthony Coleman of NB Elite Realty LLC, who has been in real estate for over eight years. "It's super rare." Situated along the shore of Lake Ray Hubbard, the area draws outdoor enthusiasts with opportunities for boating, fishing and relaxing by the water. Families also appreciate the solid schools. Despite being a unique, waterfront community, entry points are relatively modest. "These aren't your multi-million-dollar communities. You can get in this area in the $300,000s," Coleman says. A part of the greater Rowlett area, residents benefit from family-friendly parks, riverside trails and downtown community events.
Traditional 1980s and '90s homes and some new construction
Ranch-style houses and New Traditionals built from the 1980s to the 1990s are common. Some have elegant architectural touches, from stone facades to arched entryways to towers. Lot sizes span from less than 8,000 square feet to more than half an acre. Lawns are traditionally suburban, some showcasing professional landscaping. Prices range from around $320,000 to $780,000, with larger, waterfront properties commanding the highest range. New construction, from lakefront beach houses to contemporary farmhouse styles, price from around $460,000 to $790,000.

Trails, sports, senior dance classes and paddling spots
Residents have plenty of ways to stay active. The Rowlett Nature Trail traces a lakeside greenbelt, making it a favorite for walkers. Katy Railroad Park and Herfurth Park offer a mix of sports courts and fields, playgrounds and picnic spots. Herfurth Park stands out for its pickleball courts and bark park. A few miles east, Paddle Point Park has a boat launch and another scenic waterside trail. A few miles away, Rowlett Community Centre hosts youth leagues and programs for seniors. "We have senior line dancing on Fridays, that's a big one, jazzercise, and a senior tap-dancing class in the gymnasium," says Melanie Chatman, one of its recreation specialists. Golfers can book tee times at the par-72 Waterview Golf Club, about 6 miles from the neighborhood's core. Rowlett Creek–Dallas County Nature Preserve, roughly the same distance, offers 16 miles of trails through woodland and grassland.
