Suburban Rowlett neighborhood next to the Rowlett Creek Nature Preserve
Hugged by amenity-laden Highway 66 to the south, a vast park and nature preserve to the west, and commute-friendly President George Bush Turnpike to the east, the Springfield community in Rowlett could be considered a utopia of suburban convenience. "Springfield is conveniently located in the heart of Rowlett, close to retail and restaurants on Lakeview Parkway, which we locals call Highway 66," says Heather Sims, a Rowlett resident and broker/owner of the Elysian Agency. "It's also a great option for people, especially people with kids, who want parks and schools to be super walkable. One of the biggest parks in Rowlett is adjacent to the neighborhood. That's a big amenity."
