Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of city life, a tree-lined driveway winds to this manicured circle drive and 1.5 story home nestled on an 11-acre creekfront oasis in the heart of Friendswood. Enter this custom-built home to find generously sized rooms that include a study, flex use sitting room, sunroom, fabulous library, and even an indoor pool! The home is anchored by a rustic floor to ceiling 2-sided stone fireplace and also features updated Pella windows and doors for energy efficiency. The real show stopper on this 11-acre tract is the property’s hidden gems including a stocked pond, producing citrus orchard, a tree-lined golf hole, and a 3-car detached garage with an air conditioned and heated additional workshop bay and finished office or storage space that stretches above the entire length of the garage. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own acreage within the city limits!
