About this home

Welcome to one of Lake Royale's most unique settings. 150 Big Horn Cove sits on a rare peninsula lot with water on three sides, giving you the kind of natural privacy that's nearly impossible to find in a gated lake community at this price point. This is not a standard lake-view lot, you are genuinely surrounded by water.

The cottage is intentionally cozy, one bedroom, one and a half baths, 661 square feet, but the real living happens outside. A screened porch runs the length of the home and looks directly out over the cove, making it a four-season retreat you'll actually use.

Wood floors, smooth ceilings, a gas cooktop, built-in refrigerator and freezer, and a walk-in shower keep the interior clean and functional.

What you're buying here is the lot and the lifestyle. Lake Royale is a fully amenitized gated community with a pool, beach access, boat slip, dock, tennis, basketball, clubhouse, playground, and a fitness course. The HOA handles the community, you handle the porch time.

Whether you're looking for a weekend escape, a short-term rental opportunity, or a low-maintenance full-time home on the water, this property delivers something genuinely rare: a waterfront peninsula setting under $250K.

150 Big Horn Cove

Sold Oct 29, 2025
Sold for $5k more83 sq ft larger$33 lower per sq ftIdentical original finishes

This sold listing is actually the previous sale of this very property, which closed just recently. Because the home for sale is listed at the exact same price it recently sold for, the valuation appears fairly priced based on its own recent history. You are essentially paying for the premium peninsula lot, as the interior still features the same honey oak finishes seen in the previous sale.

Bottom line
Since this is the same property, the current list price is perfectly aligned with what the market was willing to pay just a few months ago.

107 Piquot Drive

Sold Jul 18, 2025
Sold for $58k less63 sq ft larger$112 lower per sq ftFeatures a modern white kitchen

This home on Piquot Drive offers a much more modern interior with white cabinetry and updated flooring, but it lacks the direct water frontage found at 150 Big Horn Cove. While the home for sale is significantly more expensive per square foot, the price difference reflects the massive value of a peninsula lot in this community. It’s a classic trade-off between a nicer interior and a superior, high-demand location.

Bottom line
If you prioritize a move-in-ready interior, this sold home was a better deal, but 150 Big Horn Cove is all about the rare water access.

164 Pinto Drive

Sold Apr 21, 2025
Sold for $95k less44 sq ft larger$157 lower per sq ftFully renovated interior

This property on Pinto Drive was recently renovated with a very stylish, modern look and sold for a much lower price point. However, this is an 'apples to oranges' comparison because 150 Big Horn Cove sits on a rare peninsula lot with direct water access, which always commands a heavy premium. The home for sale makes sense for a buyer who prioritizes the lot and view over having a move-in-ready, modern interior.

Bottom line
The home for sale appears fairly priced when you account for the fact that waterfront peninsula lots are the most valuable assets in Lake Royale.
