Executive Summary
Every now and then, a property comes along that simply can’t be duplicated.
The Lodge is one of those places.
Originally envisioned as the flagship headquarters for Woodsmen Realty’s national land brokerage, this remarkable 8,000 square-foot lodge became years of passion, craftsmanship, and attention to detail brought to life. Although our vision ultimately shifted in a different direction, the result is one of the most unique mixed-use properties you’ll find anywhere in Texas.
Sitting on 1.95 acres with prominent Highway 69 frontage, The Lodge offers something incredibly rare—a fully renovated commercial office downstairs, an equally impressive completely renovated residence upstairs, and multiple built-in income streams, all for well below appraised value.
DOWNSTAIRS
A Mountain Lodge You’d Never Expect in East Texas
Walking through the front doors doesn’t feel like entering an office.
It feels like you’ve stepped into a hunting lodge somewhere in Montana.
The entire 4,000 square-foot lower level was designed around authentic lodge architecture and craftsmanship. Real wood finishes, rustic detailing, towering ceilings, an authentic East Texas petrified wood fireplace stretching nearly 40 feet high, handcrafted accents, a massive double-sided fireplace, antler chandeliers, and carefully curated materials create an atmosphere that’s almost impossible to describe until you experience it yourself.
Clients don’t just walk in—they stop and look around.
The downstairs layout consists of approximately 10 private offices, multiple conference rooms, separate entrances, and a large central kitchen, allowing the space to function as one cohesive headquarters or as two independent office suites.
Whether you’re building a company headquarters, professional office, medical practice, creative studio, event venue, or executive workspace, there simply isn’t another office in the region that offers this kind of character.
UPSTAIRS
A Home Worthy of the Lodge Below
The upper level is an entirely separate 4,000 square-foot residence that’s every bit as impressive as the office below.
Three oversized bedrooms each feature their own private bathroom, creating an ideal setup for a family, guests, or executive housing. The primary suite includes a spacious master bath with a jacuzzi, while the enormous living room and oversized kitchen provide plenty of room for entertaining or simply enjoying everyday life.
Step outside onto the massive elevated veranda overlooking the property, then into the private fenced backyard—creating a home that feels completely separate from the commercial space below.
Whether you choose to live upstairs while operating a business below, lease the residence for additional income, or create executive lodging, the flexibility is exceptional.
A PROPERTY THAT IS INCOME PRODUCING
One of The Lodge’s most overlooked features is that it already generates passive income before you ever collect a dollar of rent.
A fiber utility box located on the property currently generates approximately $11,000 annually, while two existing billboards provide an additional $2,000 per year in lease income, both ideally placed on the corners of the oversized 1.95 Acre lot and completely out of the way.
Together, these revenue streams help offset ownership expenses from day one.
The nearly one-acre asphalt parking area also presents tremendous upside for future development. RV spaces, additional commercial buildings, storage, contractor yards, or other income-producing uses could all be explored depending on a buyer’s vision and local approvals.
COMPLETELY RENOVATED
Every major component of the property has already been addressed.
New HVAC systems.
New flooring.
Updated interiors.
Remodeled living spaces.
Modernized offices.
Functional mechanical systems.
Simply put, this isn’t a project—it’s ready for its next chapter.
THE OPPORTUNITY
It’s difficult to replace an 8,000 square-foot mixed-use building today for anywhere near this asking price, especially one that has been renovated to this level.
The Tyler County Appraisal District currently values the property at approximately $740,000, yet it is being offered for just $499,000.
It is priced to sell.
For an entrepreneur, this could mean living upstairs while the commercial space below helps pay the mortgage.
For an investor, it could mean leasing both spaces while collecting additional passive income from the fiber lease and billboard contracts.
For a business owner, it could mean operating from one of the most memorable offices in East Texas while generating residential rental income above.
It is easy to see how the future owner could easily offset a mortgage with the rental potential of this building.
Properties come and go every day.
Landmarks don’t.
The Lodge was built to be remembered, and now it’s waiting for someone with the vision to write its next chapter.
