Looking for a great deal on a lock-and-leave home in a 55+ adult gated community? If access to everything you need for an active life is the clincher, David Griffin Real Estate agent Lori Ericsson has just the listing for you! This week\u2019s Highlight Home of the Week sponsored by Lisa Peters, Senior Loan Officer with First Horizon, is a three-bedroom, two-bath home in the premier community of The Cove of Hickory Creek in Red Oak, a mere 20-minute drive from downtown Dallas.<\/p>\n

When our publisher Candy Evans went hunting for a smaller, low-maintenance home, she found the options surprisingly limited \u2014 which got us thinking about 55+ communities for all price ranges. The Cove of Hickory Creek is one such gem: a gated enclave of just 60 upscale homes built by D.R. Horton in 2018 and 2019. Low maintenance is key with a homeowner\u2019s association that takes care of all lawn care for you. The community is located in the heart of Red Oak, minutes from golf courses like Red Oak Valley, Pecan Trails, and Country View; parks and lakes, including Cherry Creek Nature Preserve, Cedar Hill State Park, and Joe Pool Lake; and plenty of nearby restaurants and entertainment.<\/p>\n

\"Red<\/p>\n

The home features an open, one-story floor plan, recently refreshed and arranged perfectly for an active lifestyle. Tile floors and high ceilings make the living space feel bright and open and ready for you to make it your own.<\/p>\n

The kitchen features granite countertops and an eat-in bar that makes quick meals or entertaining a breeze. The dining area has access to the lovely deck outside, which makes it easy to dine al fresco or enjoy morning coffee on the patio.<\/p>\n
