From the moment you lay eyes on this 1649-square-foot beauty, you’ll fall in love, starting with the welcoming front porch, framed by water-wise landscaping. Inside, note the gorgeous hardwood floors; you’ll also find tile and carpet in all the right places. Appreciate the bright and airy feel from all the windows throughout this home! There’s an open concept living/dining/kitchen area, so you’re never far from the action. A beautiful feature wall with sliding barn door in the living room adds so much character! The lovely kitchen has granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, so much storage, and a breakfast bar. The primary bedroom features an on-trend accent wall and a walk-in closet, plus an en suite with dual vanity, water closet, and step-in shower. Secondary bedrooms are spacious, light and bright, and the flex space—complete with window seat and custom ceiling— is ready for your special touch. An office, perhaps? You’ll love the just-right laundry space, too. Window blinds, ceiling fans and recessed lighting throughout. Outside, everyone including Fido, will have fun in the big, fenced-in backyard with a covered deck. Note the huge trees, and appreciate the detached workshop/storage shed. The home is near Airport Blvd, where you’ll find so many shops and restaurants close by—tacos, pizza, burgers? Done! And there’s more at the Mueller neighborhood, just down the street. I-35 is a short hop away, and the home is just 10 minutes from downtown, and only a few minutes further to the airport. Work at UT? Getting there is a breeze! Weekend fun is a stone’s throw away at nearby Bartholomew park, where you’ll find a pool, splash pad, disc golf course and more. Zoned for Ridgetop elementary, Lamar middle and McCallum high schools.
