About This Home

As of August 2025

Welcome to this beautiful Tudor-style retreat nestled among mature oak trees, where charm meets everyday comfort. This spacious 3-bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home offers over 2,500 square feet of inviting living space and thoughtful design. A grand circular driveway leads you in, hinting at the generous layout inside. Step through the front door and enjoy multiple living and dining areas, perfect for hosting, relaxing, or simply spreading out. The large kitchen offers plenty of space for culinary adventures, while the oversized laundry room gives chores a more organized setting (we make no promises on motivation). Two fireplaces add warmth and character, and the dedicated office with built-in bookshelves is ideal for working from home, crafting or home schooling. The primary bedroom features a relaxing en suite bathroom highlighted by a charming clawfoot tub, ideal for unwinding after busy days. Throughout the home, natural woodwork, neutral tones, and large windows enhance light and warmth. Head outdoors to enjoy the back deck overlooking the spacious backyard, great for barbecues, tossing a ball, or watching the many song birds or deer romp about. Beyond the property, you'll find nearby gems like the Lower Purgatory Trailhead for scenic hikes, San Marcos Premium Outlets for shopping sprees disguised as errands, and the vibrant local dining and entertainment scene at “The Square.” Whether you’re setting down roots or simply looking for more room to live and breathe, this home offers the space, style, and setting to do it all. Come see where comfort and personality meet.
