Lake Life, and Off the Grid Living in Texas

 

If you have been asking yourself this question and wondering, can I really find something on the Lake that also has the option for off grid living?  If so, I have found it for you!

Welcome to 14924 Lake Paula, Willis, TX. 77318

14924 Lake Paula Dr.

This custom built single story one owner home has 2.38 acres and 124 feet of water frontage.  It is located on Lake Conroe in Willis, TX. just North of Houston.  This unique home sits just minutes away from the Sam Houston National Forest.  This street is fairly private and most homes in the area are at least 2 acres or more.

Check out those wrap around porches!  This home is great for entertaining.  There is room to add a pool if you want.  The solar panels help keep electrical cost down, plus batteries can easily be added for off grid living.

The current owners enjoyed gardening and growing their own fruits & vegetables.  This 40 x 60 Raised Garden Bed has plenty of room to grow.  The area even has its own generator for the well house.  There are peach, persimmon, and fig trees plus lots of blackberry plants in this area of the property.

This home was built for storage and efficiency.  You can feed an army in this kitchen and with the butler's pantry, you have the space to store the food!  The current owners had at least 2 freezers, and an additional refrigerator along with their food storage plus a washer & dryer.

The boat deck area is a great place to sit and watch the sunrise over Lake Conroe.  There are several birds that nest across the lake and it is a great place to see them.  There is a boat slip and lift.  You also have plenty of room to store kayaks, or any other water toys.  Sit back and relax, or drop a line, the possibilities are endless!

With the National Forest being so close by, you will see deer frequenting the property.  Some people do hunt in the National Forest - so, this is a great place for convenient hunting.

This single story home has wrap around porches and a large covered patio area and lots of decking!  There is room for a pool, if that is what you desire.  It is hard to find a property with the type of acreage on the lake.  

14924 Lake Paula Dr.

There is a 2 car garage, plus a tractor storage.  There is also an attached greenhouse with a built in sink.  There are several water stations around the property for easy access for watering plants, cleaning areas, or whatever is needed.  Not having to drag a water hose all over the property is a convenient feature most people do not realize.  

14924 Lake Paula Dr.

The home is heated with propane and has 2 tankless water heaters.  The generators are run on propane, so when your neighbors have no electricity, you can invite them over.

It wouldn't be an off grid home without a greenhouse.  This is conveniently located next to the tractor storage/workshop.

Brenda J. Andrew - This is a rare opportunity that doesn't come up often. Congratulations on your beautiful and exceptional listing that will make people green with envy! To own a property that offers so much more is truly something to be proud of, that's for sure! Love that garden too! There is a lot to be said for owners who can be self-sustaning with their own Greenhouse, ability to fish on their own property, and plant their own fruits on trees and vegetables in the ground on that 40 x 60 Raised Garden Bed. Your link to the property is exceptional. You also took a lot of time to point out details for the property for the benefit of the Seller and Buyers motivation too.

I wish you and the sellers all the best!

That looks amazing!  I would love to live off-grid, but I don't know if I am cut out to put in the work necessary to maintain an off-grid residence.

What a fantastic property, Brenda. Congratulations on the listing. Personally, I'm not cut out for off-grid living, but I run into many people who fantasize about it and also about living close to water.

Hello Brenda and feeding a army is a good way of putting it in this kitchen.  This place sounds so great.

Brenda, I would bet this beauty isn't on the market long.  Like Nina, would not do that, but many would like to!
