Today we’re headed out to Royse City to take a look at this total cutie. Since it’s likely a community that you don’t know a ton about, sit back, relax, and soak it all in as we detail this suburb that is – according to Caple & Company’s Melanie Caple – a 35-minute straight shot to Dallas.

Royse City is just beyond Rockwall, and what draws people out there is the easy living, larger lots, and chance to get away from it all. It’s also a more bang-for-your-buck kind of city. And this house proves it.

This is the third house Caple has sold on Sabine, and she said over the years they’ve watched the steady uptick in interest as the Metroplex basically bursts at the seams. Dallas proper has also priced itself right on outta budget for a lot of people, too.

That’s when suburbs like this swoop in and say, “We got you. And by the way, we have nice stuff, too.”

Like gardens that owners toiled over and will now turn over to you in hopes you won’t weed it all up. We kid. But seriously…

The finishes inside this house are spot on, but it’s really all about location. When you live on Sabine, you’re literally on a golf course … for under $400,000.

That ellipse was added for dramatic effect because WHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD??

The subdivision, Stone River Estates, is an outdoor community where people know their neighbors and they all cruise around on golf carts.

The views, the covered patio, the pops of color in the plants – all reasons to get outside every day you can. Inside, you’ll find all the extras – granite countertops, tiled kitchen, flat-front cabinets, a generous primary bedroom with en-suite bath, lots of closet space, etc.

This set of sellers loves their house and the area. They’re not going far. Just down the street, in fact.

If all you know of Royse City is what was happening out there years ago, it’s time to take another look. Caple said a full-on city has emerged with everything you’re looking for and oh yes, there is a Buc-ee’s.

If you’d like to take a look at 2600 Sabine Circle, give Caple a call. She has this four-bedroom, three-and-one half-bath home listed for $370,000.
