Monterra Checks Off The Three Most Important Words In Choosing Your New Home

Location. Location. Location. These are the three most important words for any homebuyer. So, what if you could live in a charming little town, located far enough away from the chaos and traffic of the big city, but in the middle of everything that’s important to your lifestyle needs? You might say “it was Fate” that drew you there. And you would be right. 

The small-town vibe of Fate, Texas and the sumptuous new master-planned community of Monterra have become a magnet for attracting families that are ready for something better. Better schools, better amenities, better recreational activities, and a better lifestyle are all found at Monterra. A large part of the magic of Monterra is its location.

Spectacular Schools 10 Minutes Away

Since this brand-new master-planned community is only 5 miles from downtown Rockwall, the children who live here get an automatic boost. They get to attend schools in the outstanding Rockwall ISD, which independent school rating services call one of the best in Texas. This will have an incalculable effect on their future academic pursuits and long-term future. 

Rockwall High School has an average class size of 600 students and has an exemplary 98% graduation rate. There are few schools in Texas that can make this claim. Every school provides a wide range of academic and extracurricular activities, aimed at developing well-rounded kids. Click here for a snapshot of what a great education looks like.

So Many Things to Do

In addition to the great schools in Rockwall, Monterra is surrounded by other fun places to hang out. For example, Royse City is only 4 miles away and its historic downtown has been named a “Texas Main Street” community by the Texas Historical Commission since 2007. The purpose of Royse City Main Street is to encourage downtown revitalization within the context of historic preservation. The district consists, generally, of the commercial district on Elm Street to Church Street where fun-seekers can find plenty of restaurants, shops, and regularly planned city events.

If water sports like fishing, boating, water skiing, and swimming are on the warm season “To Do” list for your family, one of the most popular recreational lakes in Texas – Lake Ray Hubbard – is 10 minutes away from Monterra.
