Sachse is a North Dallas suburb with rural and suburban appeal
Situated between the President George Bush Turnpike and Lake Lavon, Sachse (SACK-see) is a Dallas suburb on the outer edges of the DFW Metroplex. “When I started in 2004 we were a population of 10,000,” says Lance Whitworth, Director of Leisure Services for the City of Sachse. “Now we’re 30,000. And like other cities in North Dallas and Collins County, it’s grown quite a bit.” Sachse is rapidly increasing its services to meet demand, with new parks, additional recreation center programming and expanded library services. Its location on the eastern edge of the Metroplex gives Sachse a rare and increasingly appealing mix of rural and suburban.
Sachse is a large community with tower trees and many neighborhoods to choose from.
Sachse is close to the country with horse ranches nearby.

New builds cluster near the President George Bush Turnpike
Architectural styles vary, but homes tend to have mid-sized lawns, a tree or two in the front yard and a sidewalk out front. Three-bedroom ranch-styles are common, and they begin at $225,000. Other homes cluster in newer developments, including Woodbridge, a golfing community, Idlewild Estates and The Station. The four- and five-bedroom homes in these communities are modern builds, and often have Tudor or Craftsman features. They range from about $400,000 to $749,000. New townhouse communities cluster near State Highway 78 and President Bush Highway. Townhouses run from $339,000 to $415,000. A handful of custom-built estates on one or more acres, built after 2018 just off Pleasant Valley Road, have recently sold for about one million. “It’s a growing, developing suburban community. A small-town feel, but with conveniences due to the Turnpike,” says Kathy Spillyards, a broker at Integrity Plus Real Estate.

Dallas is 30 miles southwest of Sachse via the President George Bush Turnpike, which is a toll road, and Highway 75. The commute is about the same via the turnpike and the I-30.

Jake’s Burgers has been a Texas hotspot since 1985
One Texas favorite, with a popular outpost in Sachse, is Jake’s, where the enormous burgers are made with 100% Texas beef that’s delivered straight to the restaurant from Fort Worth. Fries are hand cut and kids meals are only $7. Another hotspot for a good meal is Frankie’s Mexican Cuisine, where locals enjoy brisket enchiladas, salmon tacos and ten different types of margaritas. The kalua pig barbecue at Mo’Bettah’s Hawaiian Style Food is also recommended. Groceries are sold at the local Kroger and Walmart. And with State Highway 78 and the President George Bush Turnpike nearby, residents enjoy easy access to much of the Metroplex.

The park system in Sachse is expanding to meet community needs
The playground sticks to the firefighting theme at Firefighters Park, where kids swoop down red-and-yellow slides and ride the kiddie zipline. There's a walking trail here too. The Sachse volunteer fire department helped raise the funds for this popular spot. “We just finished the J.K. Sachse Park," Whitworth says. “It has a splash pad, a new pavilion, a restroom and sand volleyball.” Pickleball courts are on the way. Heritage Park is in the middle of a major expansion. Campers have their pick of more than 225 campsites around Lake Lavon, which is about 7 miles northeast of Sachse and one of the largest lakes north of Dallas. This recreational hub has 121 miles of shoreline, 5 beaches and numerous boat ramps. In Sachse, golfers hit the links at the public Woodbridge Golf Course.

Sachse has fun on the Fourth of the July
Locals enjoy various festivals year-round, but they break out their lawn chairs and blankets for the Fourth of July. “Our biggest is our Red, White and Blue Blast,” Whitworth says, which draws about 20,000 people from surrounding counties to Heritage Park for bands and family fun. “We have games, food trucks, vendor booths and water activities.”
