Property Description
Discover a premier investment or personal retreat in the highly coveted Barker Creek subdivision—one of the few neighborhoods on Lake Cypress Springs that permits Airbnb and VRBO short-term rentals. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath lakefront chalet was beautifully updated in 2021 and is being offered fully furnished for a seamless transition. THE RESIDENCE: The interior features a stunning open-concept kitchen with rich wooden ceilings, crisp light-colored walls, and modern stainless steel appliances. The layout flows effortlessly into the living and dining areas, perfect for entertaining. The primary ensuite is conveniently located on the main floor, while two additional guest bedrooms and a full bath occupy the second level. Outside, a generous deck nestled among towering hardwoods leads down a gentle slope directly to the water’s edge for easy lake access. THE INVESTMENT: Looking to grow your portfolio? The owners are also selling their property just two doors down—an incredible opportunity to own two side-by-side, income-producing lake homes! The HOA provides a truly carefree lifestyle, covering yard, dock, and tree maintenance, gate security, weekly trash pickup, and grounds insurance. COMMUNITY AMENITIES: Barker Creek offers a private beach, boat slips, fire pits, and expansive entertainment spaces. Located within an easy drive of Dallas, this is the perfect balance of convenience and lakeside serenity. Don’t miss this rare chance to build equity in one of the most investor-friendly pockets of East Texas! **Barker Creek is currently redoing all boat slips. Each cabin will receive a brand-new boat slip upon completion.**
