Located 20 miles southeast of downtown Dallas, Seagoville offers a taste of the North Texas countryside while giving residents access to the conveniences of the city. “It’s kind of a big town, but it also has a small-town feel,” says Desiray Drinning, a Realtor with EXIT Realty Pro. “It’s on the outskirts of Dallas, so it’s kind of country living but close enough to the city to commute to work.” This Dallas suburb has its own identity, but with easy access to U.S. Route 175, residents can stay connected to the rest of the Metroplex.
Traditional homes are plentiful in Seagoville.
Seagoville is a great city for those seeking a quiet life away from the city.
