If you've been googling "Orange TX realtor" or "homes for sale in Orange, TX," hi. I'm Emily Ross. I work with RE/MAX ONE right here in Orange County. I'm also licensed in Louisiana, which comes in handy when your next chapter hops the Sabine, or when you can't decide which side of it to call home. I show homes in Texas and Louisiana all the time, so we can tour both and you only need one agent. In 7.5 years I've closed 429 transactions and more than $77 million in sales across both states. Orange is my backyard. Let me show you around.

 

Why people love Orange

 

Here's how I explain where Orange is: we're the first town on I-10 when you cross the Sabine. Coming in from Louisiana, we're your "Welcome to Texas!" Heading the other way, we're the "Bye Felicia, see ya later" on your way into LA. You might've blinked and missed us. Ha! Usually that's when people go, "OHH yeah... I've been there before!"

 

Fun fact: Orange is the farthest-east city in all of Texas, and it's home base for Orange County, so the courthouse and county offices are right here in town.

 

Want culture without a big-city commute? Shangri La Botanical Gardens & Nature Center is a 250-plus-acre oasis along Adams Bayou, and admission is free. Downtown, the Stark Museum of Art has a serious collection of American Western art (yes, Remington, Russell, and Georgia O'Keeffe), and Lutcher Theater brings real performances to Main Avenue. Then I usually suggest tacos. Priorities.

 

Beaumont is about 30 minutes west on I-10, Lake Charles is roughly 35 miles east, and Houston is about 110 miles down the road.

 

Neighborhoods & nearby areas

 

Little Cypress is about four miles north along Highway 87: unincorporated, a little more spread out, and served by Little Cypress-Mauriceville ISD.

 

Orangefield, in south-central Orange County, grew up around the Orange oilfield and has its own schools through Orangefield ISD. If you want a little more breathing room, this is one of the first places I mention.

 

West Orange is its own city, just southwest of town, close to Orange and the West Orange-Cove schools. Pinehurst is a smaller city on I-10, with homes and shopping between Orange and the rest of the Golden Triangle.

 

Bridge City, just south of us, took its name from the highway bridge toward Port Arthur. It has its own school district, and I work this area constantly. My Texas office is even there.
 

Vidor is its own city about 20 minutes west on I-10, with Vidor ISD and an easy drive toward Beaumont.

 

Deweyville sits up north along Highway 87 near the Sabine River. It's quiet, country living with its own Deweyville ISD.

 

Schools

 

Orange County has a bunch of school districts packed close together: Little Cypress-Mauriceville, Orangefield, Bridge City, Vidor, Deweyville, and West Orange-Cove. The school district is based on the home's exact address, not the town name, so I'll double-check it for any house you fall in love with. I won't pretend I have a crystal ball on test scores, but I will help you tour the area and talk to the people who actually live there.

 

Homes in Orange

 

You'll find a real mix: starter homes, established neighborhoods, and properties with a little more land toward Little Cypress and Orangefield. Prices move with the market, so I'll pull current numbers and walk you through what's actually for sale when you're ready.

 

If you're selling, I have a proven marketing plan (and yes, sometimes that involves free tacos, because people remember a listing they had fun with). Ask me about it, and I'll tell you exactly how I'll get your home in front of the right buyers.

 

Thinking of buying or selling in Orange?

 

Whether you're buying, selling, or relocating along the Texas-Louisiana line, I'll treat you like my favorite family member: honest, available, and in your corner. Just a local agent who will climb through a doggy door if that's what it takes. (Please let it not come to that. These hips have already made that trip once.)
