Your boathouse is already built. Your boat lifts are in place. Over 106 feet of south-southwest-facing shoreline opens to wide water sunset views on one of East Texas’s premier recreational lakes. This 1.187-acre lakefront property on Lake Tyler West delivers a turnkey 2,100-square-foot boathouse with dual boat lifts, a jet ski lift, and an approved dock\u2014all on an unrestricted waterfront lot with utilities in place, three minutes north of the Tyler Yacht Club and ready for the lakefront home you’ve been planning.<\/p>\n
This 1.187-acre waterfront parcel sits on the east shore of Lake Tyler West with 106.8 linear feet of prime shoreline oriented to the south-southwest, capturing open-water views and unobstructed sunsets that define the best of Texas lake living. The property’s crowning feature is its 2,100-square-foot boathouse, already outfitted with two full-size boat lifts, a dedicated jet ski lift, an enclosed storage room, and a lake irrigation pump; infrastructure that would take years and significant investment to permit and build from scratch. A dock with a private boat slip completes the waterfront package, placing you on Lake Tyler’s managed bass waters the day you take ownership.<\/p>\n
Parklike topography across the full acreage provides a natural building site surrounded by mature loblolly pine, oak, flowering dogwood, and bald cypress that frame the water while delivering shade and privacy throughout the seasons. Southern Utilities water and Oncor electric are available to the property, removing the utility hurdles that slow down new construction on rural waterfront parcels. No building restrictions apply to this City of Tyler leasehold property, giving you freedom to design and build a custom lakefront home, weekend retreat, or luxury lake estate on your timeline and your terms. Access is provided by a shared gravel drive.<\/p>\n
The boathouse anchors this property’s waterfront value. At 2,100 square feet, it shelters two full-size boats on dedicated lifts, keeping hulls protected from UV exposure, storm debris, and waterline buildup while staying launch-ready around the clock. A separate jet ski lift keeps your personal watercraft secure and accessible between rides; no trailer, no ramp, no waiting. The enclosed storage room consolidates rods, tackle, life jackets, tow ropes, and seasonal gear in one organized space steps from the water. A lake irrigation pump draws directly from Lake Tyler, adding practical utility for landscaping, gardens, and grounds maintenance without relying on municipal water for outdoor use.<\/p>\n
The approved private dock extends into Lake Tyler West’s south-southwest-facing open water, providing access to the lake during normal seasonal fluctuations. This orientation places you on the main body of the lake with direct lines to productive fishing structure, open cruising lanes, and quiet coves for swimming and anchoring. Boathouse properties on Lake Tyler West are among the most difficult waterfront assets to acquire because they combine permitted infrastructure, protected vessel storage, and private lake access; all elements that cannot be easily replicated on vacant waterfront lots.<\/p>\n
Lake Tyler West covers 2,400 surface acres with depths reaching 40 feet, connected by canal to the 2,276-acre Lake Tyler East since 1968 for a combined 4,600-acre recreational system. Texas Parks and Wildlife Department actively manages this fishery, stocking Florida-strain largemouth bass annually to develop trophy-class fish over 8 pounds, while healthy populations of crappie, channel and blue catfish, bluegill, sunfish, chain pickerel, and white bass round out a diversity few East Texas lakes can match. This property sits three minutes north of the Tyler Yacht Club, the East Texas home for sail and paddle sports since 1954, with a 10-acre campus featuring 40 wet slips, covered kayak storage, and dual boat ramps. The City of Tyler maintains multiple lake recreation areas including Camp Tyler and the Lake Tyler Marina, while the Lake Tyler Petroleum Club offers gated access and a private marina for members. Weekly yacht club races, semiannual regattas, the Oilmen’s Bass Tournament, and the Lake Tyler Triathlon keep the waterfront community active year-round.<\/p>\n
