Nestled on 10.33 acres above Lake Worth, this tranquil retreat offers both seclusion and convenience. The property provides a nearly untouched canvas and an unparalleled opportunity to carve out the private retreat of your dreams. Hidden from neighbors, the perimeter is completely fenced. The town of Lakeside permits the construction of stables, pastures, and trails for up to 10 horses on properties this size and in this neighborhood. Equine services and trails are easily found in the immediate area. The acreage includes 4 residential lots, and only one has been developed. The 2037 sq ft house built in 2000 offers an open space floor plan that can easily be modified to increase 2 bedrooms to 4. Because this house sits on a ledge overlooking a meadow, one can birdwatch through treehouse-like windows that flood every room with light. A small cabin with a porch and electricity sits on an adjacent lot and acreage includes a fenced pen for animals. Three additional lots offer the potential to share the estate with family or friends. LOCATION makes this property exceptional and virtually one of a kind in the current market. While this land may feel peaceful and remote, it lies within 30 miles of DFW Airport, and 20 miles of Fort Worth’s lively downtown, Stock Yards, Stock Show and Rodeo grounds, Dickies Arena, world-class museum district, internationally recognized zoo, botanic gardens, Colonial Golf Course. It is 32 miles from the home stadiums of the Dallas Cowboys and Texas Rangers. Lake Worth and Eagle Mountain Lake are located in the immediate vicinity as are the Fort Worth Nature Center, public schools, hospital, and shopping. You CAN have it ALL, including the unique opportunity to create YOUR quintessential Texas lifestyle. Catch the International horse shows at the Will Rogers Equestrian Center in the morning, and spend a lazy afternoon dipping your toes or fishing line into the lake that afternoon. Atop horseback, enjoy the sunrise and lake views peeking through trees on the northeast border of the property, then head to concerts or rodeos at the Stock Yards that evening. Drive into the city for work, then stretch out on the hidden cabin's porch hammock to watch the stars come out that night. The stars DO shine BIG and BRiGHT deep in the heart of this Texas Property. And they are waiting to shine on you!
