Recreational Land with Home for Sale in Quitman, Texas
560 County Road 1447, Quitman, TX 75783
Just 90 minutes from Dallas, this 21-acre waterfront estate on Lake Quitman is conceived as a private resort-style compound designed for scale, seclusion, and a fully immersive lakefront experience.
Comprising six distinct buildings across the property, the estate is designed to comfortably accommodate 32 guests across its residences and guest quarters. Anchored by a substantial main residence and complimented by a separate guest house that sleeps eight and features two full baths, along with additional purpose-built structures including a dedicated smokehouse, a party barn, a fully outfitted game and recreation space, as well as a garage, shed and greenhouse the property functions as a cohesive, self-contained retreat. Whether hosting multi-generational family gatherings, executive retreats, or destination-style weekends, the compound offers the infrastructure and privacy to do so seamlessly.
The setting is defined by expansive water views, over 500 feet of shoreline, and approximately 24 feet of lake depth, supporting boating, swimming, and extended days on the water. A private boat dock accommodates two boats and up to four Sea-Doos, while the lake’s calm, family-friendly character enhances its appeal offering both recreation and refinement in equal measure.
Outdoor living is approached with intention. A tree-lined driveway sets a striking sense of arrival, while multiple screened-in porches allow for year-round hosting and relaxation. The smokehouse serves as a culinary centerpiece—crafted for slow, elevated entertaining—complemented by a large outdoor fire pit for gathering under the stars. A sport court with pickleball capability adds an active dimension.
Open acreage allows for a private helicopter landing area, reinforcing the estate’s accessibility and exclusivity, while the scale of the land ensures privacy rarely found in waterfront properties.
