Incredible lake house located on an open water portion of Lake Livingston with easy access to the Trinity River. Home located in a deed restricted homes only neighborhood. Amazing 3 bed, 2 bath lake house with amazing kitchen, living room, dining room and breakfast room. House is built at ground level in the front, but property goes down toward the water, so the back of the house has a large area under the house. This area includes a 1 car attached garage, tons of storage, a 15x9 screened in back porch, and a air conditioned 9x9 office area. Property also features matching 13x9.5 outbuilding that has power and AC. Current owner used this room for a sewing room. Storage abounds throughout the house. The path/steps leading down to the water were just repaired. Private boat house has electric boat lift. Great water view. 7 outdoor sitting areas including 4 decks, 1 gazebo, and a porch swing at the water's edge. Come check it out. Will not dissapoint.
