Property Description

If you've been searching for a home where quality comes first, look no further. Built in 2021 with exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on 2.35 peaceful acres with no HOA, offering the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and modern convenience.

From the moment you arrive, it's clear this home has been meticulously cared for. Inside, you'll find soaring ceilings, an open-concept layout, abundant natural light, and a thoughtfully designed split floor plan. The spacious kitchen flows seamlessly into the living and dining areas, creating an ideal space for everyday living and entertaining.

Designed with long-term comfort in mind, the home is fully ADA accessible, featuring wide doorways, single-level living, and an accessible bathroom. One of the home's most practical features is the laundry room, conveniently accessible from both the primary suite and the main living area.

Step onto the large screened porch and enjoy peaceful views of Big Lake Santa Fe, framed by magnificent live oak trees that create a tranquil setting where nature takes center stage.

Beyond the home itself, the property offers exceptional versatility with an attached 2-car garage, a 2-car carport, and a separate 18' x 22' powered workshop/garage—perfect for projects, hobbies, additional vehicles, or lake toys.

Built with durability and peace of mind in mind, this home also includes insulated garage walls, a whole-house generator connected to a buried 500-gallon propane tank, an active termite bond in place since construction, and countless thoughtful details that reflect the pride of ownership throughout.

Whether you're enjoying coffee on the porch overlooking the lake, working on your next project in the workshop, or simply appreciating the quiet surroundings, this is the kind of home that's increasingly difficult to find—a home built with intention, maintained with care, and designed to be enjoyed for years to come.

Quality never goes out of style. Come experience the difference for yourself. Dreaming of lakefront access? The charming waterfront cottage directly across the street is also available. Ask about discounted package pricing when purchasing both properties and enjoy the best of lake living. (GC541231)
