A Rare Waterfront Canvas on Cedar Creek Lake is waiting for you. If you haven't discovered the charm of Caney City, you're in for a treat. Tucked along a peaceful cove of Cedar Creek Lake, this waterfront property sits on nearly one-third of an acre with approximately 155 feet of waterfront and is brimming with potential and all it needs is the right visionary to bring it back to life. Let's be upfront: this is a true fixer-upper. Every surface is ready for a full refresh, and a new roof will be needed, making this the perfect blank slate for investors, renovators, or buyers ready to roll up their sleeves and create something special. The bones are there, but the location is the star. Inside, the expansive living area offers generous space for whatever layout you envision. A charming built-in radio, record player, and intercom system that folds into the wall adds a nostalgic touch worth preserving, or it becomes a fun story to tell. One bedroom opens to the outdoors through a sliding door, and the oversized covered back deck delivers front-row seats to stunning Cedar Creek Lake sunsets. Cast a line, launch a kayak, or simply soak in the gentle sounds of nature right outside your door. Whether you're looking to renovate into your dream lake escape, flip for profit, or redevelop the lot entirely, the waterfront setting alone makes this an opportunity worth serious attention. Priced for the project. Positioned for the payoff.
