Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This offering is a 0.75-acre waterfront lot in a gated neighborhood in Montalba, Texas. The property also includes a shared, undivided interest in 112 acres of community common grounds. Those common areas feature five fully stocked fishing ponds and walking trails, with deed restrictions intended to support a consistent neighborhood appearance.

The community is designed to preserve a night-sky experience through a Dark Sky Initiative, which the seller notes helps keep light pollution minimal for stargazing. Ownership includes access to a barn apartment that is available for owners or their guests. The neighborhood also allows for short-term rental use, with existing rental activity referenced in the community.

For buyers looking to build a private waterfront home or create a retreat setting, the combination of gated access, shared fishing and trail amenities, and deed-restricted community standards may be a strong fit. The inclusion of barn apartment access can also support guest stays during community events and personal visits. Prospective buyers should arrange a private tour to confirm details related to access, restrictions, and the shared amenities.

Key Highlights

  • Waterfront lot in a gated community with 112 acres of shared common grounds.
  • Access to five fully stocked fishing ponds and walking trails.
  • Airbnb‑friendly community with strong short‑term rental performance.
