About This Property
Extremely well-maintained single-story home featuring a flexible floor plan with two primary suites -- one with a separate HVAC system -- plus a spacious guest bedroom and hall bath. Thoughtfully cared for over the years, this home offers a great opportunity for additional updates to make it your own. Major improvements include a roof replacement (2024), new garage doors (2025), exterior side entry garage door (2026), and gutters with screens along the front of the home and back patio (2024). Patio light fixtures were also updated in 2024. The kitchen and breakfast area were fully remodeled to the studs in 2007, featuring granite countertops, updated cabinetry, sink, faucet, and appliances, with a new microwave installed in 2025 and in-wall venting to a roof vent. Original windows and the sliding patio door were replaced in 2010. Additional enhancements include an opened floor plan, bullnose corner molding, removal of paneling, added insulation in the second primary suite attic, and 5/8" plywood decking for additional attic storage. The backyard shed includes electricity, lighting, and built-in cabinets. Enjoy the beautifully landscaped, tree-filled yard featuring three red oaks, two pecan trees, and a redbud. Relax with neighbors on the front flagstone patio or unwind in the quiet setting of the covered back patio. Conveniently located near schools, parks, restaurants, and shopping, with easy access to major employers and just minutes from Q2 and The Domain.
