This Resort-Style Castle Compound on Lake Waxahachie Is The Ultimate Staycation

If you’re looking for the perfect getaway, 218 Hunter Pass on Lake Waxahachie is the staycation of your dreams. Located just 40 minutes from downtown Dallas, this lakefront property is set upon 8+ acres of land, giving you ample space to relax and unwind. And from the moment you arrive, you’ll be amazed by the breathtaking views of the lake and the endless onsite amenities. 

As you pass through the gated entrance and canopy of trees, you’re immediately transported to a more serene time and place. The stone facade and towering structure of the main house are reminiscent of a Mediterranean castle. 

Crossing the threshold of the arched solid wood double doors, you are greeted by an ornate light fixture and a Barclay cast-iron spiral staircase that curves gracefully and leads to a second-floor office and a third-level bedroom with its conical vaulted ceiling and panoramic views of the lake. The third level could also serve as an artist’s studio and the awe-inspiring views as your muse. 

A 7-foot-wide, lodge-style stone fireplace anchors the living room, wood beams and trusses frame the vaulted ceiling, and natural stone canvases the arched walls and columns of the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area. 

The chef’s kitchen features a built-in, commercial-sized refrigerator, double ovens, and a sky-blue center island with a breakfast bar and inset cooktop. It’s all topped with a unique light fixture. 

The dining room, enhanced by a beautiful contemporary light fixture, provides the perfect setting for intimate dinner parties and large gatherings. 

Adjacent to the living room, floor-to-ceiling windows run the length of the 80-foot sunroom providing additional living and dining space and of course, spectacular lake views. This flex space can also serve as a game room or prove the perfect location for your daily sun salutations or a dry sauna. 

An elegant primary suite is also located on the main level and features a second stone fireplace and a designer light fixture. The renovated ensuite bath features marble-like tile flooring, a sparkling chandelier, and a large walk-in shower with strategically placed body sprays — perfect for deep-tissue muscle relaxation. And the large walk-in closet provides plenty of storage space.

Two additional bedrooms, one of which has direct access to the sunroom, are also located on the main floor and share a remodeled ensuite bath. 

The detached guest house is equally impressive and features an open-concept living room with a fireplace, kitchen, and dining area. The full-sized kitchen includes high-end appliances, granite countertops, and a large center island with pendant lighting and a breakfast bar.

There is also a large bedroom with an updated ensuite bath. A half bath is also included. And the spacious covered patio with a walk-in bar is perfect for entertaining and opens up to the pool area, making it easy to enjoy any time, day or night. 

With stunning amenities such as a renovated pool/spa, sand volleyball court, playground, basketball sport court, and a boat house, this private resort has plenty to keep you and your guests entertained.
