Some places seem to exist in a world of their own, and Caddo Lake is one of them. This custom waterfront retreat captures the mystery and unmistakable beauty of one of East Texas’ most extraordinary landscapes. Located in Cypress Village on approx. .4 acres with approx. 152 feet of water frontage along Big Cypress Bayou, this 3 bedroom, 3 bath home sits at a spectacular curve in the river, creating sweeping water views in both directions. Watch boats meander along the bayou, wildlife move through the cypress, or enjoy a front-row seat when Caddo comes alive with its festive water parades. Whether the day calls for boating, swimming, exploring hidden waterways or doing absolutely nothing beyond watching the sun sink over the river, this is a property designed around life on the water. The custom home is elevated on steel pipe construction, providing additional protection from rising water while creating generous covered space beneath the house. A circle concrete drive extends underneath, where a hanging swing offers opportunity for slowing down and watching the dragonflies dance through a Caddo sunset. The property also features a retaining wall, privacy fencing along one side of the perimeter, and new black chain link fencing with two entry gates for attractive ease of use. An additional concrete slab offers a convenient spot for a future small storage building or other use. Inside, the open layout keeps the focus exactly where it belongs: on gathering, relaxing and those remarkable views. A stone accent wall brings natural texture into the space, while the kitchen island creates an easy centerpiece for meals, conversation and entertaining. A spiral staircase winds upward to the loft, where elevated views stretch across Big Cypress Bayou and into the surrounding canopy. Downstairs, additional storage and a full bath with shower provide practical space for lake days, guests and gear. An elevated walkway leads from the house partially beneath the canopy of trees to the waterfront, making the journey to the boathouse almost as beautiful as the destination. Encompassing approximately 1,290 square feet, the three-bay boathouse features electric boat lifts ready for days spent exploring Caddo’s legendary waterways. Take the spiral staircase above to perhaps the best seat on the property where a sprawling covered area offers room under ceiling fans and twinkling deck lighting. A screened entertaining room adds space to unwind, catch the game, and soak in the ethereal atmosphere. The property’s covered pier is a bonus feature constructed on pipe for lasting waterfront enjoyment. This is where summer afternoons turn into boat rides, evenings stretch a little longer over the water and the scenery never quite looks the same twice. Peaceful one moment and alive with lake activity the next, this stretch of Big Cypress Bayou offers an extraordinary vantage point from which to experience the wildlife, recreation, mystery and magic of Caddo Lake. Some properties give you a place to live. This one gives you a place you’ll never forget.
