About 8960 Dickson Rd

'COME SAIL AWAY' on Texas's #1 sailing lake-Eagle Mountain Lake. This home is waiting for new creative ideas to make it a top Estate on arguably one of EML's top 3 streets. This .70 acre, over 4100 sqft., 5 bedrooms-4 baths, over 100' water frontage, and deep water at the dock are just a few of the benefits this property has to offer. There is a separate workshop with an office above for quiet time or naps. If your knees are shaking because of the potential vision of what can be created, there is an elevator that can get you to the different levels. The nationally recognized Fort Worth Boat Club is a 4-5 minute boat ride or car drive away. If you do the updating, the possibilities are endless for a family lakeside Revival Resort. Enjoy living on a street where Eagles, Beatles, and John Denver ('come fill up your senses') have visited, and the Fort Worth Star Telegram has done articles on the impressive history of ownership of Dickson Road. The 'Crystal Blue Persuasion' will keep your blood pressure at a perfect level. Relax on the lakeside decks in the Hot Tub and become 'Comfortably Numb'. Come Explore For Additional Benefits Hidden In Plain Sight. This property is a 'catch' worth bragging about. Eagle Mountainonians have a saying that this beauty will get you so excited and tongue-tied you will not be able to CLINK THEARLY!! Call if you don't get this, and we will also set up a showing!
