6001 Melba Dr Malakoff, TX 75148

This waterfront property combines an existing lake cottage with substantial buildable acreage. The home has been freshly painted and features a wood-burning fireplace, tile flooring, and a large picture window with views of the open water. The covered deck extends the living space outdoors, and the elevated position provides lake views from both the living room and kitchen. Outbuildings include a large RV/boat barn, a two-bay metal barn with an enclosed shed area, and two tool sheds.

The site offers approximately 200 feet of nearly level waterfront and includes a brand-new, all-aluminum boathouse. The boathouse is described as low-maintenance and includes a wide walkway, boat and jet ski lifts, and a large covered seating area suited for lakeside gatherings. The property is fully fenced with a gated entry and is surrounded by mature trees for privacy.

For buyers, the combination of waterfront, existing improvements, and space supports a range of plans, including keeping the current cottage and adding future guest or additional homes. Sellers note no known restrictions and state that county permits would be needed for septic system(s), livestock, and possible short-term rentals. With the included concept plans for a larger custom home, the property is positioned for owners who want to work toward a future lakehouse while enjoying the water access and upgraded boathouse now.
