Located near Lake Corpus Christi in Brown Ranch, this unique two-story canal-front home sits on two large lots at the end of a quiet road, offering plenty of space, privacy and that relaxed lake lifestyle. Just 3–4 minutes from IH-37 and approximately 10 minutes from Mathis, TX, the property is convenient to town and the highway while still feeling tucked away. Lake Corpus Christi is just a short walk from the property, and a community boat ramp provides convenient access for boating and fishing.
Offering approximately 1,700 sq. ft. of living space, the home underwent an extensive remodel inside and out about six years ago. Improvements include 100% vinyl siding, double-pane windows, three newer French entry doors, central A/C and heat with updated ductwork throughout, and updated flooring. The downstairs features Lifeproof vinyl flooring, while the upstairs primary suite has Berber carpet.
The main level includes a bedroom, full bathroom, laundry room, spacious living area and a large kitchen with custom cabinetry. Vaulted ceilings finished in pine with cedar trim give the kitchen and living areas a warm, rustic lake-house feel. A large game room provides plenty of room for a pool table, entertaining, hobbies or an additional living area. Upstairs is a spacious private primary suite with ceiling fans and plenty of room to relax.
Outdoor living is one of the highlights of this property. Enjoy a covered front porch, a screened-in porch off the living area, an additional porch off the kitchen and attractive covered flagstone walkways around the home. The huge fenced yard is truly impressive and features outstanding professional landscaping by Gill's Nursery, beautifully established flower beds, mature plantings and a screened greenhouse. There is also plenty of room for a vegetable or flower garden, additional outdoor living areas or simply enjoying the extra yard space.
The property backs up to a canal and includes a small boat ramp and dock, adding even more to the lake lifestyle. Lake Corpus Christi is within walking distance, and the nearby community boat ramp makes it easy to get out on the water.
There is exceptional space for vehicles, an RV, boats, lake toys, tools and equipment. Multiple covered parking areas include a large carport, a dedicated RV carport and an additional carport with power and water. Two outdoor storage buildings and a storage barn with approximately 2½-carport space provide even more storage, workshop and covered parking possibilities.
The home also features a complete water filtration system with an Aquasure water softener, oversized sediment filter and UV light purification technology.
With two lots, canal frontage, extensive improvements, outstanding landscaping, multiple outdoor living spaces and an abundance of covered parking and storage, this property offers so many possibilities. Make it your full-time lake home, weekend getaway or vacation retreat, or explore its potential as a long-term rental, VRBO or other short-term rental investment. A possible third lot may also be available.
Brown Ranch lots are leasehold interests. Cash buyers only.
