An expansive community along Lake Ray Hubbard

Waterview is characterized by a versatile mix of undeveloped northern farmlands and a suburbanized southern region that straddles the sparkling waters of Lake Ray Hubbard. Several residents enjoy waterfront homes along the lake, while others live near the community's central golf course and namesake, the Waterview Golf Club. The club's golf course is a significant community draw, but Waterview has a dynamic list of amenities. "It's an amazing community because it has everything," says Realtor Clint Rose of self-owned Rose Group Realty. Rose has sold homes across the region for just over a decade. "It's got ponds, pools, parks and playgrounds. It's literally a one-stop shop."

Waterview Golf Club boasts a challenging course for beginners and experts alike.

A diverse mix of housing

Waterview comprises a fairly unique landscape. Much of the land north of Rowlett Community Park and the golf club is undeveloped and lends itself to a more rural vibe. There are a few farms, well-established farmhouses and ranch-style homes on spaced-out properties. Further south, closer to I-66, housing subdivisions become more abundant. Spinnaker Cove mainly features brick colonials and new traditional homes from the 1980s, while Broadmoor Estates is a gated community on the golf course with large custom homes from the early 2000s. Waterfront homes, like those on Briarcrest and Columbia Drive, often feature spacious backyards and private docks. A three-bedroom brick house in Waterview will cost around $300,000 to $400,000, while larger homes, like those on the golf course, cost between $500,000 and $700,000. Homes on the waterfront can cost well over $1 million.

Sports at Rowlett Community Park

Community members get together at Rowlett Community Park. Local soccer, baseball and softball leagues, like the Rowlett Youth Soccer Association, use the park's 10 baseball fields and 12 soccer fields. Several teams play simultaneously, so the park buzzes during nightly practices and weekend games. Walking trails bound the park's two lakes, which also feature a fishing pier for local anglers to cast a line. Additional amenities include the sand volleyball court, outdoor fitness equipment and a playground for the kids. While Rowlett Community Park is a focal point of community recreation, Waterview earns its name from its central golf course. Waterview Golf Course offers a scenic and challenging round for golfers of any level, and Rose says it is popular with locals. Water hazards come into play on 10 of the 18 holes, including the course's signature hole, which features a lake wrapping around the green.
