The "Lake Place" - A 37+/- Acre Private Pineywoods Retreat

The "Lake Place" offers 37.04 acres of beautiful wooded scenic terrain, two stocked fishing lakes with four fishing piers, a unique wooden covered bridge, stone waterfall, pavilion with outdoor kitchen, miles of hiking and ATV trails, and two comfortable residences with sleeping accommodations for up to twelve persons. A truly remarkable property with outstanding recreational, wildlife, hunting & fishing opportunities-- ideal for family get-togethers, large group events, company outings, or just as your personal private family retreat!

The highlight of the property is the two stocked fishing lakes, the smaller one, "Willow Pond," is ringed by beautiful water irises and offers a fabulous 85 foot-long covered T-head pier with two side wings including sink/fish cleaning area, ceiling fans, fish feeder area, and wonderful views of a rock waterfall. Fishing here is for bass, large bluegill, and the occasional 25+ pound catfish and carp! The second approximate four acre "Finger Lake" is over 20-feet deep and features three T-headed piers ranging in length from 24 to 82 feet long and is stocked with Florida largemouth bass, coppernose bluegill, and channel catfish. The classic, stylish metal roof covered bridge is 80-feet in length and can support passenger vehicle traffic giving access to most of the property via miles of interior roads and trails.

The two residences include the "Long House" a 1,504 square foot remodeled three bedroom, two bath manufactured home with built-on attached 14'x48 covered back porch boasting unrivaled views of the lawn and lakes, a 14'x40 covered entry porch, a 14'x12' utility room, and a rear 70'x10' covered porch, all combined for a total of over 4,000 feet under metal roof. Connected by concrete patio is the "Tall House," a two-story 1,100 square foot building offering full kitchen and powder room downstairs with a circular staircase leading to a separate bedroom, open bunkroom, and full bath upstairs. Great views of the covered bridge and Finger Lake can be seen from either of the upstairs or downstairs covered porches.

Other building improvements include a detached metal workshop/garage/storage building offering over 2,000 square feet under roof. Inside is a wash basin, ample cabinet space, an elaborate wood workbench with drawers and cubby holes for storage, rear building material racks, a diesel storage tank, and vehicle washing station. Lastly, perched above Willow Pond is the 500 square foot concrete pavilion featuring ceiling fans, kitchen sink with cypress countertop food prep area, ample cabinet storage, and a separate covered bar-b-que area. A wood storage rack for outdoor camp fires is located nearby.

The land features gently rolling to steep topography including several high vantage points with pretty views of the lakes and a small meadow. The perimeter fenced property is heavily wooded with a variety of native trees commonly found in this area including: magnolia, beech, loblolly pine, mockernut hickory, dogwood, red bud, wild plum, red and white oaks, and cypress trees. Additionally, several more rarely found native trees include mulberry, longleaf pine, and very uniquely: a grove of shagbark hickory trees. The property's miles of improved road provide perimeter access along with various trails leading to all corners of the tract. Hunting is good for whitetails, wild hogs, and small game with several existing hunting stands found on site.

This rare-on-the-market opportunity offers ideal family recreation (or even commercial opportunities such as a Bed & Breakfast or Cabin Rental enterprise) is easy to get to located less than a 90 minute's drive from north Houston, the Woodlands, and Kingwood, or just an hour away from the Beaumont/Pt. Arthur area!
