SALE IS PENDINGThis private country lake property has been a slice of heaven for the last 10 years for the current owners. However, they've decided to sell in an effort to downsize again. This one level home is located near the deep end of a small private and peaceful spring-fed lake, situated high up on about 1.5 acres (3 lots) with 310 feet of waterfront below. Overall, the house has seen many recent improvements, and has been lovingly maintained. The price is listed at $239,500 furnished (furnishings recently purchased specifically for this house), or $219,500 unfurnished. Along with the original one acre property, this price includes the adjacent 1/2 acre treed lot, and a share of ownership in Florey Lake.Inside, it looks and feels like a cozy lake cabin, with 3 bedrooms (or 2 bedrooms plus office) and 3 full bathrooms. The step-down living room has a wood burning stove and windows with great views of the sparkling in-ground pool and beautiful trees leading down to the water's edge. The dining room with a lovely deer antler chandelier, and the kitchen with new stainless steel appliances including a double oven, both have vaulted ceilings with wooden beam, lined with natural stained pine. The large master bedroom, with windows facing the lake and 2 large walk-in closets, has a master bathroom with newly installed sliding glass doors in the tub and shower enclosure, new light fixture and hardware to match. Off the master bedroom, you can step down into a wonderful large 15'x16' private covered screened-in porch, which gives lovely views into the adjacent treed 3rd lot. It's the perfect spot to enjoy that first cup of coffee in the morning. The 3rd bedroom (or office), can be used as a mother-in-law suite with its own bathroom and kitchenette; beverage center is included. The hall bathroom has a marble-tiled shower and whirlpool tub, granite countertop and has a vaulted ceiling, along with the adjoining utility room, all lined with natural stained pine. Brand new carpet, oak hardwood floor, granite and laminate floors have been installed throughout the entire house within the last two years. On one side of the house, you will find the spacious 'Oasis' media room, with vaulted ceilings, several windows with views of the lake and trees, and a stone fireplace. This is a great room for entertaining, but could be turned into a very large 4th bedroom.Outside, the home is protected by cream colored vinyl siding with red shutters, along with a fairly new roof. The house, garage and workshop are all protected by an alarm system, with smoke and glass breakage sensors, fully monitored by East Texas Alarm Company. There are dozens of oaks and other mature trees, with azalea bushes and beautiful outdoor lighting at night. The detached 2-car garage has a garage door opener with remotes, and a large storage room in the back. A new asphalt driveway was installed last year. Another building on the premises is a really cool red metal 20'x18' workshop with a full concrete slab, which can be used as an additional 1 1/2 car garage for those big boy toys. The in-ground pool has a brand new vinyl liner and pool sweep, and a fairly new pump and filter. The newly finished concrete pool decking includes a 7 foot tall working lighthouse, which is a replica of the East Quoddy lighthouse in Maine (with red and white stripes, of course). The two wood decks at the back doors, and wood steps down to a large separate deck overlooking the lake, are all newly installed within the last 2 years. There is a pier over the water, with a diving board, that lights up with red lights at night. Did we mention the great fishing available? The entire property is completely fenced in on both sides, with about 288 feet of white vinyl fencing along the front private road, with a solar-powered electric gate with remotes. The house is conveniently close to the exit onto FM 3053, only 2 miles south of Highway 31, 6 miles to Kilgore, and only 19 miles to Loop 323 in Tyler, Texa
