Celina Real Estate & Homes for Sale in Texas

Celina combines the vibrant personality of a progressive, family-oriented area with the friendly, Southern hospitality of Texas. Located in Collin County, Celina is 15 miles northwest of McKinney and 35 miles north of Dallas, sitting on State Highway 289 and Farm Road 455. As a rapidly growing area with new homes popping up across the landscape, Celina is experiencing the change from a predominately farming community to a suburban hideaway. Additionally, the Celina High School Bobcats are the source for community pride as they hold the Texas state record for the most consecutive wins. Recreation opportunities include picnicking, camping, hiking, biking, horseback riding, swimming, boating and fishing at the nearby Ray Roberts Lake, Lewisville Lake and Lake Dallas. Ray Roberts Lake has emerged as a very productive and popular spot for resident anglers. The Ray Roberts Lake/Lake Lewisville Greenbelt Corridor is a 20-mile multi-use trail system. Equestrians, hikers, bikers, canoeists, birdwatchers, anglers, and other outdoor enthusiasts can access the trail at one of three trailheads. Residents can also visit the nearby old-time rodeos, stock shows, cattle drives and the historic stockyards for fun. Dallas/Ft. Worth also offers a formidable cultural district as the home to the opera, symphony, ballet and theater, several entertainment options, museums, the zoo and shopping. Friendly people, a family oriented, peaceful community soaked in southern charm and close proximity to metropolitan areas are just some of the reasons why Celina is a great place to call home.
