386 Evening ShadowsHolly Lake Ranch, TX 75765Price: $378,500

Brand-new and taking shape in the pines. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath new construction in Section 6 of gated Holly Lake Ranch is nearing completion, and this is your chance to be among the first to see it. Set among towering pines, it offers the privacy of the trees with the community just beyond them. Everything will be brand-new and untouched, ready for its first owners from day one, with no repairs, no updates and no history to inherit. Just a fresh start in the trees. New construction means you start clean: new roof, new systems, neutral colors, LVP flooring, decorator fixtures and top-of-the-line finishes, in a home that has never been lived in. The kitchen comes with stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops that carry through to the baths, ceiling fans throughout, and a 5 ft. electric built-in fireplace. There is nothing to fix and nothing to undo. A two-car garage keeps the cars and the gear out of the weather. This is the rare chance to own new construction inside an established community, where the trees are mature and the amenities are already in place. Holly Lake Ranch is a gated community with 24-hour security, and residents enjoy an 18-hole golf course, five private lakes for fishing and boating with a marina and boat ramps, two pools, a fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, miles of nature trails, a clubhouse with on-site dining, a dog park, a playground and frisbee golf. Mornings on the trails, afternoons on the lake, evenings at the clubhouse. Whether it is golf, a morning on the water or dinner at the clubhouse, the days here fill themselves. Weekends here feel like a getaway, and every day feels a little unhurried. Holly Lake Ranch is one of East Texas's best-known gated lakeside communities. For buyers who want new construction with trees, water and room to breathe, this is the one to watch. Ask about it now, while it is taking shape. A brand-new 3-bedroom, 2-bath home in the pines, nearing completion. Be among the first to see it.
