Classic Hill Country Gem in Close-Knit Neighborhood
Through the ample character and quality of this home, you can feel the love that has gone into building and maintaining every square foot. This 4 bedroom, 3 bath home is one of the last original-owner occupied homes in this desirable neighborhood. It sits on a roomy .25 acre lot dotted with oaks planted by the same family who built it.
The limestone exterior is vintage Texas Hill Country, with coordinating garden planters that surround each of the giant trees. The oversized front porch is the perfect place for a comfy swing or a pair of rocking chairs. A winding, concrete walk rolls out to the street while a custom limestone path leads to the driveway.
Community-Centric Living
The original owners picked this area because of the parks, the green space, the large lots and the warm vibe of this neighborhood. All of those qualities are still present in Spicewood Estates, making it an active, friendly, community-oriented place to buy a home. You’re just a block or two from parks and jogging trails, and huge, mature trees cover just about every lot.
Spread Out in this Roomy Floor Plan
The layout of this home is spacious and accommodating, starting with the formal living and dining areas, which lead into one another. Both feature mesquite wood floors, a distinctive Texas touch. The formal living area is an idea place to have a cup of coffee with a friend or relax away from other noise and distractions. Both rooms feature custom plantation shutters.
The centerpiece of the family room is the stately limestone fireplace, which brings the Hill Country vibe of the exterior inside. It’s flanked by built-in shelving and cabinets on both sides, giving you space to put everything out of sight and keeping toys, games, books, or hobbies organized. New Hunter-Douglas blinds keep this space cool.
Foodies, We’ve Got You Covered
This lot has an extra large backyard for the serious home gardener, and the kitchen has space to keep everything you need to turn your harvest into amazing food. The U-Shaped kitchen was redone in 2010 with a built-in stainless oven and microwave, as well as granite countertops. Recessed lighting makes this space light and bright.
Custom ash cabinets feature drawers down below as well as cabinets, and the contrasting kitchen island has even more storage to keep all the appliances and cooking tools you need handy to make the perfect homemade meal. An extra-large pantry provides plenty of shelf space and the butler’s pantry provides even more room for those special-occasion pieces.
Also downstairs, the large laundry area has a utility sink and cabinets to keep everything organized.
Each Large Bedroom Has Its Own Walk-in Closet
Each of the bedrooms is spacious and inviting. The original owners wanted to make sure everyone had plenty of closet space too, so each bedroom has a walk-in closet. Three of the four upstairs bedrooms are carpeted, the fourth has wood flooring – perfect for a playroom, media room, exercise room or office.
The travertine tiled master bathroom has a dual vanity with quartz countertop, handy built-in cabinet, and even a pull-out shaving mirror. There’s also a frameless walk in shower, a garden tub, and private toilet. The best thing about this bathroom is the wall of built-in storage with a perfect combination of cabinets and drawers so that everything you need is always neatly organized and close by.
The second upstairs full bathroom features white quartz countertops with dual vanities and custom framed mirrors. All of the upstairs rooms have new Hunter-Douglas blinds and each room opens out to the second-story deck with stairs. Relax together on the covered patio below while you listen to the relaxing water feature.
A Dream of a Lot
Those that appreciate the outdoors will love this lot! The large garage has plenty of room for a shop with space for built-in cabinets and counters or to store your gear. This oversized garage can fit it all.
Home gardeners and hobbyists will enjoy the backyard’s 12×15-foot, two-story shed with electric. This shed is roomy enough to fit all of your lawn and garden equipment, supplies for your DIY projects, or equipment for your outdoor adventures. The seven-zone sprinkler system will efficiently keep your yard green with no effort during hot Texas summers. And speaking of summer, the heat won’t be a problem with the two 3-ton A/C units installed in 2015.
