Luxurious living meets rural tranquility in Double Oak
Tucked between Flower Mound, one of Dallas-Fort Worth's fastest-growing cities, and Bartonville, Double Oak is a quiet residential enclave with approximately 3,100 residents and 1,100 single-family homes. Incorporated in 1974, the town is proudly self-reliant, with volunteers decorating the Town Hall for the holidays, maintaining local gardens and even filling potholes when needed. "Double Oak is one of those places where life feels a little simpler — in the best way," says Ashley Hart, Realtor with Keller Williams Realty-Fm and the Hart Realty Team leader. "It's a small, friendly town with big yards and a real sense of community. The town has a lot size minimum of an acre, so it still feels like a slice of the country amidst the convenience of everything you need." Although Double Oak is primarily residential, the Greatlakes Center, a small shopping plaza, is located at the northeast corner of town, while dozens of retailers and restaurants are a short drive away. With comparatively low crime rates and highly rated schools, Double Oak attracts families looking for a close-knit community and room to breathe in Dallas's ever-expanding metroplex.

Single-family homes on 1-acre-plus lots
Quiet tree-lined roads give way to well-landscaped single-family homes on one-acre-plus lots. A handful of late-20th- and early-21st-century ramblers can range from $550,000 to the upper-$600,000s. Most properties consist of new transitional designs that range from $700,000 to $1 million. Stately, custom-built homes on larger lots can range from $1 million to $1.5 million, while a handful of properties on the west side of town can sell for more. Along the cusp of Bartonville, these homes often sit on 5-acre-plus tracts zoned for horse barns, with price tags as high as $4.5 million. Many homes here come complete with attached two-to-three-car garages, and some feature private in-ground resort-style pools that offer refuge from the heat. The popular motto "everything's bigger in Texas" rings true in Double Oak, with soaring ceilings, open-concept layouts and updated kitchens and bathrooms.

The Double Oak Women's Club
The Double Oak Women's Club is the central organizer of community events, hosting everything from coffee meetups and brunch outings to book clubs and bunco nights. Adults-only events include 1920s-themed casino nights, a fundraiser for the club's Connie Gall scholarship, and the club's eagerly anticipated Kentucky Derby party, when patrons don festive hats and socialize with refreshing mint juleps in hand. The club is also responsible for organizing town-wide events that range from annual pancake breakfasts and Easter egg hunts to the Fourth of July parade at John B. Wright Memorial Park.
Nearby green spaces, equestrian centers and lakeside retreats
Although Double Oak may seem like the typical Dallas suburb, its zoning laws and large lots cater to horseback riders, with private barns and nearby public stables. John B. Wright Memorial Park offers a wide-open field dotted with picnic tables and shaded spots beneath mature trees in the heart of town. Every summer, families gather for the town's Fourth of July parade, the volunteer fire department's largest fundraiser. "Families decorate cars, four-wheelers, dirt bikes, bicycles and even horses. Neighbors sit in each other's yards while candy is thrown and water guns are squirted. Even neighboring communities come out for the fun. Then, after the parade, there is a celebration at Town Hall," Hart says.
Other nearby green spaces include two golf courses: Bridlewood Golf Club, which features a public 18-hole course, and Lantana Golf Club, a private club with a pro shop, a bar, and a restaurant. About 3 miles away from the community, Highland Village's Unity Park is the nearest large green space, with walking paths that weave around two fishing ponds, ball fields, tennis courts and a large wooden castle-themed playground. Furry friends can also run around off-leash at the adjacent dog park.
About 6 miles south of Double Oak, Murrell Park is one of several green spaces that dot the banks of the nearly 8,000-acre lake, offering boat launches, fishing piers and scenic hiking trails. Double Oak residents are also close to Lewisville Lake, 6 miles north. Pilot Knoll Park is one of the many sought-after green spaces along Lewisville's shores, with picnic pavilions, kayak rentals, campsites and hiking and horseback riding trails.
Just outside Double Oak, Lantana Golf Club anchors the community with championship greens.

Shopping and dining around Double Oak
Greatlakes Center is a small shopping strip on the northeast corner of town, home to beauty salons, a chiropractor, and Smallcakes Cupcakery and Creamery. Next door is another retail center with an urgent care facility and Bahama Buck's, an island-themed chain featuring shaved ice and smoothies. However, this plaza may be best known for its local butcher shop. "Old Town Market is a great meat market," Hart says. "They run great weekly specials."
About 2 miles east, several shopping centers line Long Prairie Road and Justin Road. The Shops at Highland Village is an outdoor shopping mall anchored by an AMC movie theater surrounded by popular retailers and local restaurants. “The town is surrounded by a ton of great spots in Highland Village, which is within a 10-minute drive,” Hart says. Shoal Creek Tavern is a highly rated restaurant known for its intimate old-world atmosphere and refined menu with hand-carved steaks and seafood. Surrounding shopping plazas feature chains and grocers like Target and Whole Foods Market. On the west side of town, Bartonville is home to Kroger Marketplace.
