5066 Bob O Link Rd, Gilmer, Texas

Description

With a beautiful hilltop view overlooking Twin Lakes, this thoughtfully updated cabin offers privacy, scenic views, and the natural beauty East Texas is known for. Set on 1.529 acres inside the gated Gilmer Boating & Fishing Club, the property enjoys lake views framed by towering trees and park-like grounds. Owners also benefit from two additional acres of shareholder-maintained open land, creating an even greater sense of space and seclusion.

Access to fully stocked Twin Lakes, shared by only 30 shareholders and their guests, means mornings fishing for bass, crappie, catfish, and brim, or slow afternoons enjoying the calm water under the community’s no-wake policy.

Inside, the home blends rustic character with thoughtful updates. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless appliances, and generous cabinetry, while Satterwhite wood and blue wormwood accents add warmth throughout. A rock fireplace with gas logs anchors the living area and creates an inviting space for everyday living or hosting.

Additions completed in 2019, including the primary suite, laundry room, sunroom, and upstairs bedroom, expanded the home while preserving its cabin character.

Outdoor living is where this property shines. A screened porch overlooking the water, lakeside pool, and separate Jacuzzi hot tub create the perfect setting for slow evenings and weekend gatherings. A private fishing pier invites early morning casts, while the fenced dog run makes the property comfortable for four-legged family members.

Additional features include an outbuilding with garage workshop, carport and dog kennel, Generac whole-home generator with RV outlet, private filtered well, and a concrete driveway behind a gated entrance.

Homes here rarely come available. With elevated views, private lake access, and a peaceful setting just minutes from Gilmer, this property offers a kind of luxury meant to be enjoyed slowly.
