Three acres of
\nLake Tyler East shoreline, offered for sale for the first time. Collins Point
\nis a 3.075-acre waterfront tract with more than 750 feet of frontage finished
\nwith a retaining wall, wide-open water along the north boundary, and a quiet
\ncove wrapping the east side. Mature hardwoods shade the future homesite, and
\nelectric service is already on the land. For the buyer who has been waiting for
\na large waterfront lot within half an hour of Tyler, with room for a permanent
\nlake home and a lifetime of weekends on the water, this is the one to see
\nfirst.<\/p>\n
Shoreline is
\nthe true measure of a lake property, and few tracts on this lake can match what
\nCollins Point offers. The north boundary faces broad, open water, giving you
\nlong views across the main body of the lake from nearly anywhere on the land.
\nThe east boundary turns into a protected cove where a pier already stands, a
\ncalm place to tie up a boat, launch a kayak or wet a line when the wind picks
\nup on the main lake. A retaining wall runs the waterfront, holding the bank in
\nplace and giving you a clean edge for a future boathouse, extended dock or swim
\nplatform, subject to City of Tyler approval.<\/p>\n
Mature hardwood
\ntrees cover the property, giving the homesite natural shade through the long
\nEast Texas summer and the settled, established feel that takes decades to grow.
\nThe tract is restricted to a site-built home only. Mobile homes, manufactured
\nhousing, and RV residences are not permitted, protecting both the character of
\nthe land and the long-term value of your investment.<\/p>\n
Lake Tyler East
\nserves as a municipal water supply for the City of Tyler, so construction near
\nthe water follows city ordinance. The City requires a 100-foot building setback
\nmeasured from the property line. Boathouses, piers, retaining walls and swimming
\npools may be placed within that setback with approval, while the home, septic
\nsystem and related structures sit behind it. Buyers will want to plan the house
\nfootprint and septic layout around the setback early in the design process.
\nCherokee County Electric service is on site. Potable water will come from a
\nprivate water well drilled by the new owner, who will also install an approved
\non-site septic system.<\/p>\n
The property is
\nreached from County Road 285 by an established access easement from the City of
\nTyler, which requires a one-time fee to process the paperwork. A second
\neasement runs from the entry gate to the property. Two RVs currently
\nparked on the 3.075 acres will be moved off the tract. Several RV spaces also
\nexist on the adjoining land. Weekend and holiday visitors use these spaces, with no permanent residents, and they are expected to be relocated over
\ntime. Buyers should confirm current status and timing with the listing agent.<\/p>\n
Lake Tyler East
\ncovers 2,276 acres on Mud Creek southeast of Tyler. The City built the original
\nLake Tyler in 1949, added the east lake in 1967, and joined the two with a canal
\nin 1968, giving boaters two connected bodies of water to explore. Texas Parks and
\nWildlife describes both lakes as consistent largemouth bass fisheries, with
\nmost fish in the 2- to 8-pound class and a few topping 10 pounds, and summer
\nnight tournaments are a regular fixture. Crappie are the second most popular
\ntarget, while channel and blue catfish, white bass, and sunfish round out the
\ncatch. A fringe of native vegetation lines much of the shoreline, and early
\nmornings and late evenings bring the quietest water once summer boat traffic
\npicks up. It is one of the finest lakes in East Texas, and
\nanglers who fish it year after year tend to agree.<\/p>\n
Arp sits about
\nfive miles east of the property, a small railroad town that began as
\nStrawberry, Texas, in 1898 and still celebrates its farming roots each spring
\nwith the Arp Strawberry Festival. Troup, Whitehouse and Overton are each within
\nabout 20 minutes for groceries, fuel and hometown dining. Tyler, the Rose
\nCapital of America, is roughly 30 minutes northwest and puts regional
\nhospitals, shopping and dining within easy reach, along with the Tyler
\nMunicipal Rose Garden and its nationally recognized public rose collection, the
\nOctober Texas Rose Festival, the spring Azalea and Spring Flower Trail, the
\n85-acre Caldwell Zoo and Tyler State Park. Winters here are short and mild, so
\nthe lake stays in play most of the year, and the surrounding Pineywoods deliver
\nthe tall pines, hardwood creek bottoms and red-dirt back roads that make this
\ncorner of Texas feel like home.<\/p>\n
This property
\nstrikes the balance most lake buyers are after. You are far enough from town
\nfor dark skies and quiet mornings on the water, yet close enough that a
\ndoctor\u2019s visit, a Friday night football game, or a run to the hardware store
\nnever takes the whole day. Longview and Kilgore are an easy drive for work or
\nshopping, and Dallas is about two hours away, which makes Collins Point a
\npractical weekend retreat for Metroplex families.<\/p>\n
