On Country Road to Stardom, Blake Shelton’s Childhood Home in OK Is Only 0K

It’s no wonder Blake Shelton reached musical superstar status—he grew up on Broadway! Well, sort of. His childhood home in Ada, OK, is located on South Broadway Boulevard, but given Shelton’s stunning future success, it’s the ideal street for a country superstar to get started.

Now you have a chance to begin your journey to stardom, because Shelton’s mom, Dorothy, has listed the three-bedroom, 2.5-bath home for a very reasonable $250,000.

Listing agent Tyler Thompson notes that there’s no celebrity tax on the current list price. The family isn’t asking a premium for the Shelton pedigree, he says. “It’s a lot of house for the money, and a fair price for the area,” he says of the 3,140-square-foot, which was recently remodeled.

Thompson notes some of the home’s virtues include an updated kitchen, an enclosed porch, and a wraparound deck.

But the home’s most striking feature is the “rustic room,” which has been paneled with reclaimed barn wood and made to look like an Old Western town, complete with an outhouse door and shingled roof. It’s a new addition, built especially for Dorothy, according to Thompson.

Shelton’s mother moved to the Lake Texoma area a few years ago and had rented out the Ada house out. Even though Blake and Dorothy have Texoma Lake homes about an hour outside of Ada, they still visit Ada frequently, as they have many relatives in the town of about 18,000, according to a local. Blake Shelton also has another home and some businesses in nearby Tishomingo.

Of course Shelton spends a good portion of his time these days in Los Angeles, serving as a judge on the NBC’s “The Voice,” stealing talented contestants from Adam Levine, and stealthy kisses from paramour Gwen Steffani. His music career hasn’t missed a beat, either. Singles from his latest album, “If I’m Honest,” continue to top the charts.
