Waterfront living on Lake McQueeney for under $1M! The lake now full and ready for boating, fishing, and fun with completion of the new dam. Whether your buyer is looking for a weekend escape, full-time lake living, or an STR, almost all of the furnishings are negotiable—they can start enjoying lake life (or hosting guests) right away! This updated 2,079 SF lake house, “Mod on the Guad,” sits on a gorgeous fenced lot with a mostly flat backyard, tucked along a private road of waterfront homes. Extensively updated and well maintained, with major improvements recently completed: new $40K seawall and boat slip, aerobic septic system, AC, fence, flooring, remodeled downstairs bath, stainless steel fridge and range, modern lighting, and more. Outdoor living is what this place does best! Enjoy coffee on the covered balconies; deer and bird watching beneath pecan and bald cypress trees, hanging out under the elevated home with ping-pong, game-day TV, and grilling; or s’mores and stargazing around the fire pit. And whether you travel by ski boat, pontoon boat or jet ski, it's a short ride to the famed Lake Breeze Ski Lodge. And yes—the inside is just as inviting with a cool midcentury modern vibe. The main level was designed for entertaining, with a modern kitchen and two living areas: a cozy space with a fireplace and 65" TV, plus a light-filled great room with panoramic lake views and dedicated spaces for relaxing, card games, catching up on email, curling up with a book or taking a nap on the daybed. Upstairs is the quiet zone with two bedrooms (one with bunk beds), each with three spacious closets. Add three covered parking spaces, a storage shed, and a well for yard watering. No HOA, and just 10 miles to Gruene, New Braunfels and Seguin.
