About This Home

As of November 2020

This beautiful custom home is well-located in the front of The Woodlands on the #10 tee box of the Panther Trails course with easy access to The Woodlands Mall, Market Street, Hughes Landing, & I-45. The owners have loved this neighborhood and the community spirit when it comes to decorating their street for the holidays. Waiting for a new family to put their touches on it, this home is loaded w/custom features & architectural details. The owners particularly enjoy the family room's privacy w/its cathedral ceiling and fireplace, which is the focal point of the room. Upstairs you'll find an added room with abundant light, which worked well as an exercise room, & it has incredible views of the golf course. The study off the elegant foyer gives you a quiet place to have a home office. The back yard is nicely shaded with mature trees, but there's plenty of space for a pool if you wish. The secondary bedrooms are quite spacious, & the game room has a built-in desk. Lots of storage here!
