Property Description
Escape to your own East Texas retreat on 17.72 beautiful acres, where privacy, recreation, and country living come together. Behind a gated entrance, this thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a split-bedroom floor plan, spacious living areas, and timeless finishes throughout. The heart of the home is a chef's kitchen featuring premium Wolf appliances, granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and a breakfast nook overlooking the stocked 2-3 acre pond and towering mature trees. The inviting living room centers around a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone propane fireplace, while built-in cabinetry throughout adds both character and functionality. The private primary suite offers a true retreat with dual vanities, a jetted soaking tub, separate shower, and two walk-in closets. Two additional bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for family or guests. Outside, the possibilities are endless. The property is fenced and cross-fenced, making it ideal for horses, cattle, or recreational use. Cast a line into the stocked bass and bluegill pond, watch abundant wildlife from your porch, or simply enjoy the peace and quiet that only acreage can provide. Additional improvements include a workshop with overhang, horse pen, dog run, storage building, RV hookup with 30-amp service, generator with transfer switch and 50-amp hookup, fiber internet availability, and a side-entry 2-car garage. Major updates include a 2022 Class 4 impact-resistant roof, new evaporator coils, and a 2026 outdoor AC unit, offering added value and peace of mind. Whether you're looking for a horse property, weekend escape, or forever home with room to roam, this one delivers the best of East Texas living.
