Moving to Double Oak, Texas
Double Oak is a small town in southern Denton County, bordered by Flower Mound, Highland Village, Copper Canyon, and Bartonville. It became a town in 1974 with just 243 residents, and it has held onto its rural character ever since. The town is limited to single-family homes on lots of at least one acre, so you’ll find mature oaks, wide yards, and custom homes instead of tract neighborhoods. Shopping and dining are just minutes away in Flower Mound, Highland Village, and along FM 407.
Double Oak Real Estate Agent
Thinking about moving to Double Oak or curious what’s currently on the market? I’d love to help. I live just down the road in Flower Mound, about 10 minutes from Double Oak, so I know this stretch of the DFW metroplex firsthand. Acre-lot properties come with their own set of questions, from wells and septic to fencing, drainage, and HOA rules, and I’m happy to walk you through them. With 85+ transactions and $32M+ in sales volume across the area, I bring real, local market experience to every client I work with. To set up a conversation, you can book a phone consultation, reach out through my contact form, or call, text, or email.
