Lake Home For Sale
Bring all of your people! Welcome to your dream retreat on the best private lake in Texas—Lake Cherokee! With a laid-back Southern coastal cottage vibe and an unbeatable location, you’re just a short walk or boat ride to Bikini Island. This 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home is the perfect HQ for lake days, long weekends, and unforgettable memories.Sitting on a beautifully landscaped 1.07-acre lot, this home is packed with charm inside and out. The classic board and batten siding, warm brick accents, and timeless color scheme create a stylish, low-maintenance exterior. Plenty of shade means you can enjoy the outdoors—even in the heat of a Texas summer. I promise you will thank me.
Spanning 3,785 square feet, every inch of this home is designed for comfort and fun. The kitchen may be compact, but it’s mighty—granite countertops, two ovens, a massive walk-in pantry, and more than enough counter and cabinet space for all your lake weekend essentials. The living room is the heart of the home, with one side featuring a cozy wood-burning fireplace and the other showcasing a huge set of picture windows with panoramic lake views—plus remote-controlled blinds (because effort should be reserved for water sports, not window coverings).
The first floor also features two charming guest bedrooms, a well-appointed guest bath, and a combined laundry and powder bath for added convenience. The master suite is a true retreat, with French doors opening to a screened porch where a queen-size hanging daybed invites you to grab a book and relax in style. With large his and her closets, double vanities, and a walk-in shower and soaking tub, This master has it all. Every bedroom in this home has a walk-in closet with built-ins, because storage should never be an afterthought.
Upstairs, the large bunk room adds versatility, with built-in bunks and tons of space—perfect for guests, kids, or anyone who just loves a cozy nook.. A fourth guest bedroom is attached, sharing a well-appointed Jack & Jill bath. Need even more storage? Both upstairs bedrooms include finished attic storage, so you’ll never run out of room for all your extra things.
Step outside, and the magic continues. Your private two-stall boathouse is ready for action, you’ll have VIP views of the legendary Firecracker Island fireworks show and you can enjoy the summer concerts right from home. The 3-car detached garage is heated and cooled, with the third golf cart bay prepped for an office, gym, or the ultimate escape space. Even the driveway is designed with convenience in mind—featuring a large motor court for guest parking. The propane-powered home generator will keep the party going even when the weather is on the fritz. If you’re looking for the perfect blend of lake life and laid-back luxury with room for the entire family, this is it!
