Luxury waterfront living in the coveted Impala South community on Lake Athens, with expansive open-water views and a home designed for effortless entertaining. Built by Danny Tidmore, the light-filled floor plan features large windows that capture the lake throughout. The spacious kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and counter space, dual sinks, a built-in induction cooktop, and two islands. A separate catering kitchen includes double ovens, refrigerator, built-in cabinetry, generous prep space, and built-in ice maker. The open living area is anchored by a stone fireplace and wet bar, with large windows overlooking the deck, backyard, and open water. Just off the kitchen, a flexible office with private bath opens through French doors to the lakeside deck. The downstairs primary suite enjoys open-water views and private deck access, with separate vanities, garden tub, separate shower, and an oversized walk-in closet with center island. A secluded flex or workout room located off the primary suite provides additional private space and French-door access toward the driveway. Upstairs, a game room with built-in cabinetry is joined by a second primary suite overlooking the lake. Five additional generously sized bedrooms provide plenty of room for family and guests—two sharing a Jack-and-Jill bath, with the others offering private baths. Most enjoy lake views. An oversized covered deck with automated screens extends the living space outdoors and takes full advantage of the open-water setting. A covered boat dock with slip and lifts completes the property. Just five miles east of Athens, the home combines the relaxed Lake Athens lifestyle with convenient access to dining, shopping, and the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center.
