Tucked away on 5.56 picturesque, Ag-Exempt acres, this exceptional single-story estate captures the essence of refined country living with elevated upgrades at every turn. Nestled in the heart of Shady Shores and perched atop a gentle hill, this private retreat offers peaceful seclusion while remaining just minutes from Interstate 35E. A true showpiece of the property is the expanded spring-fed pond, now approximately 150,000 gallons, creating a stunning focal point for fishing, relaxing, or simply soaking in the natural beauty. The land is fully equipped for both enjoyment and functionality, featuring a commercial-grade irrigation system, a new asphalt driveway, and a new wooden crossbuck fence with added rolled wire—perfectly separating the backyard from the pastures. Step outside and experience thoughtfully designed outdoor living at its finest. A sprawling 900-square-foot back deck offers the ultimate space for entertaining or unwinding under the Texas sky, complemented by a flagstone walkway that enhances the property's natural elegance. Two concrete pads provide additional versatility. Inside, the home welcomes you with a spacious open-concept design that seamlessly blends comfort & style. The inviting living room is filled w-natural light & anchored by a striking stone FP, flowing effortlessly into the well-appointed kitchen. Primary suite is a true sanctuary with its own fireplace, expansive windows & a tranquil ambiance. The ensuite bath enhances the retreat-like feel. Additional interior highlights include a versatile bonus living area, perfect for a game room, media space, or lounge + a dedicated office ideal for working from home. High ceilings & expansive windows throughout further elevate the home, showcasing breathtaking views of the surrounding acreage. The impressive workshop-garage has been upgraded with spray foam insulation. Located within Denton ISD, this one-of-a-kind property creates a rare opportunity to own a truly turnkey country estate!
