A piece of country music real estate just sold in East Texas.
The childhood home of Miranda Lambert was purchased roughly two months after hitting the market, closing last week after it was listed for $1.6 million in early February, Mansion Global reported. The final sale price is under wraps, as Texas is a non-disclosure state.
The nearly 25-acre compound at 18621 County Road 477 in Lindale, about 90 miles southeast of Dallas, carries both personal history and commercial potential. Two homes anchor the property: a larger main house — built in 1928, according to the listing — where Lambert lived from her teenage years until launching her career, and a smaller “pink house” she acquired after signing her first record deal at 21, according to the outlet.
At the time of sale, Lambert owned the pink house, while the rest of the estate was held by her parents, Richard and Beverly Lambert, according to property records. The deal effectively transfers all of the compound.
The buyer, a local investor represented by Re/Max Landmark, plans to reposition the property into an event venue for weddings, events and short-term rentals. That pivot is part of a broader trend across rural and secondary markets, according to the publication, where experiential real estate and event-driven income streams are gaining traction.
The property’s layout lends itself to that strategy. Combined, the homes offer about 4,600 square feet with four bedrooms and five bathrooms, along with more than 2,500 square feet of outdoor living space. Amenities include a stocked 3-acre pond, a warehouse, a shop with living quarters, RV hookups and even a private shooting range, according to the listing.
Listing agent Lee Trowbridge of Compass told the outlet that the deal was more than a typical transaction, pointing to the property’s pop culture history. That narrative appears to have translated into velocity, with the property trading quickly despite a niche price and location.
Lambert, now 42, still maintains ties to Lindale. She owns the Pink Pistol boutique and is connected to the adjacent Red 55 Winery tasting room on a street bearing her name.
