Description

Positioned on 1.5 acres in a gated waterfront community designed for privacy, this 5,000 sq ft modern lake estate offers open water views, beautiful eastern sunrises, and a convenient 55-minute commute to Dallas. A long winding circular drive leads to the home, privately set at the end of a cul-de-sac, featuring contemporary architecture, a dramatic courtyard-style entry, and two separate two-car garages.

Inside, a dramatic two-story wall of glass frames expansive lake views and brings in abundant natural light. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with a large gathering island, double ovens, a 5-burner gas range, and an oversized walk-in pantry.

On the main level, two waterside ensuite bedrooms feature wood flooring, glass doors opening to private patios, expansive tiled showers, double vanities, and generous walk-in closets—all positioned to capture open water views. An additional full bath with a large walk-in shower and exterior access is ideally suited for guests or convenient use after a day on the water.

Upstairs, two additional private waterside ensuites offer an elevated retreat, each with spacious baths featuring double vanities, soaking tubs, walk-in showers, walk-in closets, private balconies, and sweeping lake views. A loft-style living area overlooking the main level provides flexible space for a second living area or game room, complemented by an additional 430 sq ft media room. An oversized 330 sq ft bonus bedroom with a walk-in closet and adjacent full bath creates an ideal bunk room or additional guest space. A buried propane tank services the kitchen range and two tankless water heaters.
