WATERFRONT ON CEDAR CREEK LAKE

Sunset at 1518

A private waterfront retreat where mature gardens, expansive grounds and the lake come together.

Come near sunset and discover a newer waterfront home set beneath dozens of mature trees, surrounded by established gardens and more than two acres of usable lakefront grounds.

WELCOME TO 1518 SHORELINE

A Cedar Creek Lake home that reveals itself slowly

1518 Shoreline is not a property you fully understand from a single photograph. The experience begins beneath the trees, where the gate opens to filtered light, layered gardens and a newer home that feels settled into its surroundings.

Beyond the house, the property continues through more than two acres of usable grounds toward the lake — through established gardens, shaded paths, a firepit grove and an open horizon that changes as evening settles over the water.

The setting is beautiful, but its scale is just as important. Two combined deeded lots, exclusive-use TRWD lakefront land and approximately 90 feet of shoreline create privacy, flexibility and room that are increasingly difficult to find on Cedar Creek Lake.

ARRIVAL AND HOME

A waterfront home tucked beneath the trees, open to the lake

The approach sets the tone. Dozens of mature native oaks and elms shade the drive and soften the light around the house, creating a sense of privacy and permanence that takes decades to establish.

Built in 2022, the home feels remarkably spacious, with 10-foot ceilings throughout both the first and second floors. The stone fireplace anchors the main gathering space, the kitchen keeps conversation flowing and generous windows hold the trees, gardens and water close throughout the day.

Four bedrooms provide room for family and guests, including an oversized flexible fourth bedroom that can serve as a bunk room, game room, home office or additional living space. An oversized three-car garage keeps vehicles, lake gear and everyday life comfortably organized.

Modern smart-home-enabled systems, city water, city sewer, electric service and high-speed fiber bring everyday convenience to the lakefront setting.

OUTDOOR LIVING

A year of outdoor living on Cedar Creek Lake

In summer, the mature canopy creates deep shade while the breeze moves off the lake and through the trees. The porch, garden paths and firepit grove remain inviting even through the warmest months.

As the seasons change, the property changes with them. Spring brings fresh foliage and butterflies. Autumn brings color through the canopy and long evenings by the water. Winter brings clear sunsets, blankets and marshmallows beside the fire.

This is not a place that waits for one perfect season. It offers a different reason to step outside throughout the year.

THE GARDENS

A garden and orchard for every season

Extensive established landscaping gives 1518 Shoreline a sense of permanence that cannot be created overnight. Curated gardens wind beneath dozens of mature native oaks and elms, creating layers of shade, color and discovery throughout the grounds.

The gardens were designed so that one season gently gives way to the next. Winter camellias bring color when much of the landscape is quiet. Daffodils and azaleas announce spring. Japanese maples open with delicate foliage, deepen through summer and transform again in fall. Zinnias carry bright color through the heat and help support a vibrant butterfly community from spring into late fall.

Japanese maples, conifers, irises, daylilies and flowering perennials create a landscape that rewards both the sweeping view and the slower walk. Established beds, irrigation and defined paths allow the beauty to feel natural and easy to enjoy.

A twelve tree orchard adds another pleasure. Peaches, apples, plums, apricots and figs ripen through the warmer months, making it possible to step into the yard and choose fruit straight from the tree.

Butterflies move through the garden from spring into late fall.

LAKE LIFE

Lake life begins at your own shoreline

Morning might begin with a quiet paddle launched directly from your own shoreline. Afternoon might mean fishing, swimming or following the water as the light changes. Evening brings everyone back beneath the trees as the sky begins to turn.

A new retaining wall includes a private kayak launch built directly into the waterfront, making it easy to slip a kayak or paddleboard into the lake, fish the shoreline or simply spend time on the water.

The property offers approximately 90 feet of shoreline, with room to further develop the waterfront with a future private dock.

Fishing is woven through the setting, with opportunities from the property shoreline, the pond across the street and the dock in the community common area.

The lake is not simply the view from the property. It is part of the rhythm of living here.

ROOM TO GROW

Space for what comes next

One of the rarest features of 1518 Shoreline is not simply what has already been created, but the space that remains.

The property includes two combined deeded lots totaling approximately 0.88 acres, along with exclusive-use TRWD lakefront land that expands the usable grounds to well over two acres.

The additional buildable lot creates room for a future second home or guest house — ideal for multi-generational living, visiting family and friends, or an expanded family lake compound.

There is also space to add a pool, expand outdoor living and further develop the waterfront with a private dock.

Or simply leave the land exactly as it is and preserve the extraordinary privacy, gardens and open space.

NATURE

Wildlife on a shoreline that is never still

One of the quiet pleasures of living here is the sense that the landscape is never still. In the softer hours of the day, the shoreline comes alive with subtle movement. Herons step through the shallows, wild ducks drift between the garden and the water, turtles cross the grass and from time to time an eagle appears in the trees above the lake. Pelicans, so distinctive to this stretch of water, gather near the shoreline and add another layer of life and character to the view.

The result is not dramatic or staged. It is simply part of living at the edge of the lake — a landscape where gardens, shoreline and wildlife overlap throughout the day.

ALREADY IN PLACE

The hard work has already been done

The gardens are established. Irrigation and defined paths support them quietly. The orchard is growing. The shoreline has been improved with a new retaining wall and private kayak launch. Drainage, fencing, the custom gate and expanded driveway are already in place.

Inside the home, modern smart-home-enabled systems add convenience, while city water, city sewer, electric service and high-speed fiber make full-time lake living remarkably easy.

There is no renovation project to take on, no landscape to establish and no waiting decades for trees to mature.

What remains is choice: enjoy the property exactly as it is, or use the additional buildable space to create a second home, guest house, pool or expanded waterfront experience.

Within gated Cedar Creek Landing, residents also enjoy access to the community clubhouse, swimming pool, fitness center, private boat launch, fishing areas and neighborhood boat/RV storage.

CEDAR CREEK COUNTRY CLUB

A short golf-cart ride away

Just minutes from 1518 Shoreline by golf cart, Cedar Creek Country Club has been part of this stretch of the lake since 1967. Its 18-hole championship golf course is joined by a swimming pool, tennis and pickleball courts, dining, a bar and an active social community.

For golfers and non-golfers alike, it adds another layer to everyday life at Cedar Creek Lake — close enough to enjoy without ever getting in the car.

COME NEAR SUNSET

Some properties are understood only in person

Photographs can show the lake. They can capture the gardens and the way evening light moves through the trees.

What they cannot fully convey is the shade on a Texas afternoon, the breeze moving off the water, the ease of stepping from porch to garden to shoreline or the quiet pleasure of watching the property change with the seasons.

Walk the front path. Stand beneath the trees. Follow the garden to the firepit. Step down to the water. Then stay long enough to watch the sun reach the lake.

1518 Shoreline is a place to see, but even more than that, it is a place to feel.
