Public Remarks

This move-in ready home, with wonderful open floor plan, fits beautifully into this gracious neighborhood near Deer Park, but it is only 16 years old, with many recent updates. The entire first floor has gorgeous solid hickory hardwood floors. The huge eat-in kitchen has tile countertops and backsplash, and is open to dining room, which is open to great room with vaulted ceiling, corner fireplace, and huge Palladian window. First floor master has vaulted ceiling, attractive bath, large walk-in closet, and laundry room. Upstairs has newer carpet; the bedrooms are large and the tile bath has been remodeled. French style doors lead from kitchen area to a covered deck with hot tub, a large stamped concrete patio, and a lovely yard enclosed by privacy fence. At rear of yard is attractive, large, custom-built wood storage building equipped with 220 wiring. There is newer concrete driveway/parking pad at rear, large enough for 3 cars.
