Description
Perched on a scenic hilltop overlooking one of the Twin Lakes, this beautifully updated two story cabin offers privacy, elevated water views, and access to one of East Texas' most peaceful lake communities. The home features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a versatile bonus space that could serve as a third bedroom. Situated on 1.529 acres within the gated Gilmer Boating & Fishing Club, the property is surrounded by towering trees and park like grounds. Ownership also includes access to approximately two additional acres of shareholder maintained land, enhancing the sense of space. As a shareholder, you will enjoy access to both fully stocked Twin Lakes, shared by only 30 owners and their guests, ideal for fishing or relaxing under the community's no wake policy. Inside, the home blends rustic character with thoughtful updates. The kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and generous cabinetry, while Satterwhite wood and blue wormwood accents add warmth throughout. A rock fireplace with gas logs anchors the main living area, and the layout flows easily for everyday living and entertaining. Additions completed in 2019, including the primary suite, laundry room, sunroom, and upstairs bedroom, expanded the space while maintaining the home's cabin feel. Outdoor living shines with a screened porch overlooking the water, a lakeside pool, and a separate Jacuzzi hot tub. A private fishing pier and fenced dog run add to the functionality. Additional features include a workshop outbuilding with lean-to covered parking, Generac whole home generator with RV outlet, private filtered well, and gated concrete driveway. With elevated views, access to both lakes, and a peaceful setting just minutes from Gilmer, this property is ideal as a full time home or weekend retreat.
