About the host
Hosted by Preston and Sandie Shepherd
My wife (Sandie) and I met in college while attending Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. We've been married for 46 years. We have worked side by side in the same jobs our entire marriage. We have 2 grown daughters, both married and we have 5 grandchildren from them!
We served in the full-time ministry for 24 years (serving in the USA, Philippines, and Japan). We have our own Bible Study Apps called "Manna for the Morning" and "Manna Bible Flash Cards" (check them out at the Apple or Playstore App Stores).
We now are Real Estate Brokers (21 years) and own our own RE business called "Shepherd and Associates Realty". Our goal is "to give your dreams an address"!
We have several rental homes - some we use for STRs and others are "corporate rental". Preston plays Senior Softball, Golf and Racquetball; Sandie loves exercising, gardening, reading and spoiling grandkids!
Why they chose this property
I was raised in Texas and left in 1980 for the ministry and traveled all over the world. I always wanted to buy property in Texas and this property became available and I jumped on it. I love the fact that it's 10 acres, has a two acre private Lake, the backyard is canopied and huge oak trees, the house is awesome, it has a swimming pool and hot tub, pickleball court. The neighborhood is awesome because we're just one mile east of Broadway where all the shopping in Tyler happens! The property feels like you're in the county but you are literally right in the Heart of the City.
What makes this property unique
This property is very unique because it is 10 acres inside the city limits of Tyler. There are very few properties in Tyler that have their own private Lake, especially of our size! We love the fact that just one to five minutes you can find all the shopping destinations that you need. It's an awesome place to relax and has a wonderful backyard that would rival most city parks!
