Liberty Grove
Rowlett's north and east side, anchored by its own Garland ISD elementary
Liberty Grove covers the established area on Rowlett's north and east side along Liberty Grove Road, anchored by Liberty Grove Elementary, a Garland ISD campus that opened in 2007. It is conventional suburban single-family housing on standard lots, in a city whose main draw is Lake Ray Hubbard and whose main practical advantage is a DART Blue Line station, which almost nothing else at this price point in the eastern suburbs has.
Price Range
Roughly $320K – $500K depending on plan and condition, around Rowlett's median sale price of about $382K (Redfin, three months ending May 2026, down 3.6% year over year). Re-check before pricing; this is a moving number.

How Liberty Grove trades
Rowlett's median has been drifting down, so pricing against last year's comps is the most common seller error here. The lake and the rail station are the durable differentiators against Garland and Sachse at similar prices, and the newer housing on this side of the city holds up better against buyer expectations than Rowlett's older stock.
Check these before you offer
The trade-offs a listing will not mention. None of these are reasons not to buy here; they are the things worth pricing in.
- The market has been softening; price against current comps rather than last year's.
- Rowlett is served by Garland ISD, which some buyers weigh differently from the northern suburbs' districts. Look at the actual campuses.
- Homes are fifteen to twenty-five years old, so roofs, HVAC and fencing are due or coming due.
- The commute to the northern employment corridors is long; this city's commute advantage is toward downtown, not toward Plano.
