Scenic community anchored by a park

The Irving community of Towne Lake is anchored by the 22-acre Towne Lake Park. This suburban neighborhood offers residents convenient access to recreation, work and the city. It is bounded by Texas Highways 161 and 183. “This is a very family-oriented neighborhood. Homebuyers appreciate that it is close to the airport and shopping centers,” says Mohammad Ahsan, a Realtor with Keller Williams DFW Preferred. “Residents are within a 5-minute walk or 2-minute drive to grocery stores and restaurants.” The area is also home to Shelton’s Bear Creek Cemetery, a historically Black Landmark and the final resting place of many prominent Black residents. The cemetery has a long-standing history as the neighboring Bear Creek Community was initially a freedman’s town for previously enslaved African Americans.
