551 Private Road 7908 , Hawkins, TX 75765(Wood County)

This waterfront home is nestled away on a beautiful, wooded lot, located on Brooks Lake in Hawkins, Texas. Brooks Lake is approximately 65 acres in size. It is a private fishing lake community and it is a constant level, spring-fed lake surrounded by approximately 550 acres of beautiful, East Texas woods, consisting of majestic pine trees, mature hardwoods, delicate dogwood trees, sassafras trees and other indigenous trees. All of this acreage is owned by the property owners who are allowed to hike, walk, ride horses and camp out. Brooks Lake is known for its largemouth bass, crappie, catfish, bluegills, red ear and the other usual suspects of baitfish. This beautiful, waterfront, home is located very close to the dam so you are in one of the deepest parts of the lake. If you love to fish, you have a pier and deck that has approximately 345 sq. feet. This large, deck has bench seating, lighting and electricity.

Walking up to the home, you will come to what I would call an observation deck that has a tree deliberately growing out of the center of the deck. Here you can observe nature and all of the activities going on at the lake. It has been reported there are over 100 species of birds found in East Texas and many of those can be seen at Brookhaven. Both the observation deck and home are elevated, providing you with breathtaking views of the lake. The yard has multi-zone landscape irrigation which comes from the lake. This front porch is large enough to entertain both your family and friends. It has light fixtures on either side of the front door and three ceiling fans as well as built-in Bose speakers to enhance your entertaining. When you walk through the front door, you may have your breath taken away by how high the ceiling is. It measures close to 16 feet high. This home feels great, inviting you to stay. It has large, dormer windows allowing the light to filter in, making the downstairs and upstairs areas feel bright and airy. The living area has a wood-burning, floor-to-ceiling fireplace, perfect in the wintertime to give you that cozy, cabin feel. It has a ceiling fan, recessed lighting, hardwood flooring and built-in shelving. The kitchen is adorned with beautiful, wood cabinetry which blends in well with the hardwood flooring. You have recessed lighting, a breakfast bar, down lighting, a refrigerator, electric oven and stove, built-in microwave and a dishwasher. The dining area can easily seat 6 and the dining, kitchen and living area, all have a great view of the lake. The stairwell takes you up to the loft or sitting area. This is almost like having a second living room. Both bedrooms, one downstairs and one upstairs are very comfortable in size. The upstairs bedroom has a built-in desk with recessed lighting above the desk area. One of the things this home has that you dont see in many waterfront homes is a large, two-car garage with parking. This low-maintenance home has a metal roof and steel framing for increased durability.

When something is scarce, it becomes more expensive. Right now, could be the best time for you to buy. Before it is gone.
