The grandson of country music great Loretta Lynn, Ethan Lyell, has listed a 10,000-square-foot mansion on the banks of Lake Grapevine—where bones of a new dinosaur species were recently uncovered—for $6.95 million.
Lyell, one of Lynn’s 26 grandchildren, purchased the property in 2020 and invested $5.5 million in renovations, transforming it into an English manor-style estate.
Beyond the walls, the property is part of The Landing, a private, guarded enclave in Flower Mound with riding stables, a private lake, and greenbelts.
Lyell is also CFO of a medical firm, and he said he used to spend summers touring with his grandmother, Loretta Lynn. The daughter of a Kentucky coal miner, Lynn spent much of her 60-year career crisscrossing the country and collected 18 Grammy nominations and multiple gold records along the way. At age 15, she married and had her first of several children, but later found success in music.
Nestled in a gated enclave along the shores of Grapevine Lake, this property offers immense living areas to include a gourmet kitchen, great room, gym, gaming rooms, and library. The outside has large areas for recreation to include a pool and a view of Grapevine Lake.
Ethan Lyell has listed his North Texas lakeside abode for just under $7 million. The mansion was built in 1998, boasting 10,000 square feet within its confines, situated on two acres. Additional features include a wing for a primary suite, high ceilings, and more than 5,000 trees, shrubs, and perennials. The house, completed in 1998, features two game rooms, two connected kitchens, and a large-windowed gym overlooking the yard. Its most singular feature is a “puppy condo,” a storage area that Lyell and his partner transformed into separate quarters for five dogs. The interiors also contain two gaming rooms, two linked kitchens, and a gym with large windows that look out on the yard.
Lyell is a financial professional with a medical company and one of Loretta Lynn’s 26 grandchildren. Lynn was famously behind hits such as “Coal Miner’s Daughter” and “Don’t Come Home a Drinkin’.” The listing agents told Mansion Global they were drawn to the layout of the home and its charming nooks.
The asking price for this lakeside estate is set at $6.95 million.
