Experience an outdoor lifestyle on this 37-acre retreat, including a pipe-fence riding arena, 3,700 square foot metal barn, custom built 2-story home, and 1-acre pond, only 15 minutes to Lake Bonham. The extensive acreage provides plenty of space for outdoor activities such as dirt bike riding, four wheeler riding, shooting sporting clays, and of course, horseback riding. The log cabin home exterior is made with real wood logs that have recently been re-stained. Sip your morning coffee on the covered, wrap-around, wood deck porch as you soak in the serene views and sounds of nature. The front entry opens to a spacious open floor plan with rustic luxury at its best, featuring cathedral ceilings, real wood wall beams, doors and ceiling beams, real hardwood floors, and light fixtures with lavish country design. The first thing you’ll notice in the living room is a large stone wall that houses a wood burning fireplace with gas starter and a raised hearth, a stone niche for extra firewood, built-in shelving with a hidden safe behind it, and a wooden mantel with a live edge. The eat-In kitchen includes everything you could need and want including an undermount hammered copper farmhouse sink, redwood cabinets, leaded glass cabinet with hanging stemware rack, pot and pan drawers, granite countertops with a chiseled edge, and a window that overlooks the acreage. Kitchen appliances include a Maytag refrigerator, GE oven and 4-burner stovetop, built-in GE microwave, upgraded KitchenAid dishwasher, an ice maker, and a Tramontina wine cooler. The kitchen’s breakfast bar features a stone wall with 4 built-in, custom metal bar stools on a swivel, and a metal foot rest bar. Off the kitchen is a spacious dining room that showcases soaring windows with views of the stunning pond and pasture. Glass French doors lead from the dining room to the back deck. The first floor primary bedroom offers ample space and three windows that overlook the property. The primary en suite bathroom includes travertine floors, a built-in vanity, a new upgraded toilet, a bathtub and shower, and a large walk-in closet.
Enter the home from the back deck through the exterior laundry room door, drop your shoes, and wash up in the convenient utility sink. Kenmore washer and dryer included! A wooden log staircase leads to the upstairs loft or family room, which is the perfect area to watch movies, play games, or could serve as an office or a play area for kids. A second primary bedroom, found on the second floor, features a ceiling fan, two wooden siding feature walls, and a large en suite bathroom. Glass French doors lead from the bedroom to a balcony with breathtaking views of the property’s acreage. Relax and unwind in the second floor en suite bathroom, which offers terra-cotta tile flooring, a large jetted tub for ultimate relaxation with an upgraded antique bronze faucet and a chandelier overhead. The upstairs bath also includes a separate shower with black metal framed glass, plus his and her walk-in closets. Other amenities of the home include paneled, real wood doors throughout the interior, and a Nest smart home thermostat. A short walk from the cabin leads to a 3700 square foot metal barn, which can be used for equipment storage, and also has an area specifically for animals. The barn is equipped with two garage doors and a built-in tack room which has electricity connected and a water line as well. A concrete RV pad is available outside the barn for RV parking. A unique feature of this property is a pipe fence riding arena, located directly next to the barn, perfect for horse training, riding, and roping. A tranquil, one-acre pond rests on the property, near the home. This 37.6 acre property is perfect for livestock grazing and is ag exempt. The property is cleared for pastures, comes heavily wooded with trees, and the entire property is fenced for the cows. Perfect for vacationing and getting away from the hustle and bustle of city life, yet the property is only a quick 45 minute drive to McKinney.
