Despite Resorts on Either Side, This Texoma Retreat is Two Acres of Serene Silence

Just one hour and six minutes north on Preston Road, there’s a super cute little second home waiting for you. There are so many reasons to love this little house, with a carport for all your RVs and water things, but I’m pretty much sold on proximity alone.

If you’re the type that does indeed need to get away from it all, this home checks that box, big time. Yet, it’s only one hour away. But – most obvious line alert – it FEELS LIKE YOU’RE ONE MILLION MILES AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get Away From It All

The scenery changes, the sounds change and seriously, so do your shoulders. They relax with literally every mile you get out of town. And I know that sounds like a tourism ad and ew and barf and I know!! But it’s the truth. There’s just something about getting out of the city and the constant sounds and somehow even more constant distractions. It helps right size us and see there’s way more to life, maybe? Who knows? It’s this getting too wistful? Not for long!!

We Heart You, Nature

Nature escapes are the dream for a lot of people, but not everyone. Let’s say you’re tragically allergic to trees or lake water or mega famous resorts? Because if you are, this isn’t the one for you. On account of Margaritaville and The Hard Rock Resort basically being your neighbors if you bought this perfect little home, that’s also being sold fully furnished.

Speaking of, heck yes it’s approved for short-term rentals and with a comfort lounger and TV already in place, looks like all you need are a few photos and a catchy headline – something like escape, noise, city, now, save yourself, please, dear, god – and you’re pretty much ready to roll on VRBO.

Or be your own first guest and drive up the DAY you buy it. Because you can. Because beds and linens and probably a couple complimentary K-Cup or two.

Hot Takes

Oh, and, obviously with the announcement of turning Lake Texoma into a resort sandwich, property values are definitely expected to increase, according to experts. Experts, loose term, two Realtors talking. But for real, they probably will. I mean. Come on. Common sense dictates, right? ANYWAY.

The home is set on two acres. Two acres!! That’s all yours. And no one can touch it. (*Government raises hand.* Acknowledged.) And it’s so serene. (Again, I know. Barf word, but it’s true.) Like if you were listening to a meditation app and they said the word “escape” this is literally the property you would picture.

It’s heavily wooded with a creek running through the back. Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s Int’l. Realty’s Dawn Capitel said she would seriously build an art studio back in the woods because it’s so freaking cool. She said words like peaceful, inspiring and beautiful…you know…same same.

Capitel has 131 Colt Drive listed for $335,000. She knows the area, too, so if you have questions, give her a call.
