Description
Discover a rare private retreat on 4.8 acres in Poetry, Texas, just east of Rockwall. Tucked behind a gated entrance and surrounded by a mature tree canopy, this custom home and shop offer the perfect blend of peaceful country living, outdoor amenities, enclosed garden and convenient access to the city. The property features a stocked pond, swimming pool, stand-alone therapeutic hot tub, multiple outdoor living areas, and a spectacular setting for enjoying Texas sunsets. Inside, the home welcomes you with a dramatic living room featuring cathedral ceilings, a stone fireplace, and expansive views across the property. The spacious first-floor primary suite includes an ensuite bath, dual walk-in closets, and a dedicated dressing room. The kitchen is designed for everyday comfort and easy entertaining, complete with a large center island with seating for four, a sunny breakfast area, formal dining room, nearby powder bath and a special room under the stairs created just for Fido. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms overlook the grounds and share a full bath with a charming vintage clawfoot soaking tub. Step outside to the covered back patio for morning coffee, relaxed evenings in the hot tub, or effortless entertaining by the pool. Perched atop a gentle hill, the property backs to heavily treed wetlands with a creek, creating a serene natural backdrop and exceptional privacy. A standout feature is the impressive 1,800-square-foot metal shop, complete with a heated and cooled bar-lounge area, full bathroom, outdoor shower, spacious garage, and workshop area. Whether you are hosting family and friends, working on projects, or simply enjoying the quiet beauty of the land, this one-of-a-kind Poetry property delivers space, privacy, and an unmatched lifestyle just outside the city.
