A Balcony Over the Lake, Tucked Into Fort Worth

Somewhere past downtown Fort Worth, where the city begins to stretch out and slow down, there’s a lake the locals know well. Eagle Mountain Lake, a place where weekends start early, and the sunsets show off without trying. Just up the hill from the waterline, nestled into a quiet condo community with tall trees and wide skies, is a little second-story home that feels like summer on repeat. Unit 209 isn’t flashy. It doesn’t need to be. It’s got just enough, a soft light that spills across the floors in the morning, a kitchen with just the right amount of counter space, and a back balcony that opens to a breeze you’ll want to sit in for hours. You can smell the lake if you try. Sometimes, you don’t even have to try. It’s one bedroom, one bath, a layout that says, “you’ll be fine with less.” Fine with slower mornings. With reading outside. With walking to the marina. There’s a pool downstairs when you don’t feel like driving. And when the boats come in, you can hear their engines hum like distant conversation. Perfect for someone who wants out of the chaos, but not too far from it. A weekend spot. A full-time reset. You can take a closer look at this peaceful little lakeside perch and all that it has to offer here.
