Property Description
This 3-bedroom home + an office sits on a rare .80-acre lot just off Highland Road, offering space, privacy, and a truly special setting. With no homes directly behind, the fully fenced backyard feels like a private escape surrounded by mature live oaks, pecans, cypress, magnolia, and a satsuma tree. Outdoor highlights include a dedicated dog pen and a charming brick patio with a fountain that brings a touch of French Quarter charm. Inside, the main living area is filled with natural light from seven full-length windows overlooking the patio, yard, and a stunning live oak that anchors the outdoor space. A second living room at the front of the home features built-in shelving and offers flexibility for entertaining, relaxing, or working from home. Just off the kitchen, a wet bar with ice maker and wine storage is framed by exposed beams and overlooks the atrium, an ideal space for hosting. The kitchen is both functional and full of character, featuring custom cypress cabinets reclaimed from a 125-year-old Louisiana home, a 5-burner gas range, pantry, pull-out drawers, under-cabinet lighting, and a window overlooking the backyard. Recent updates include a new roof on both the home and workshop (2025), a high-efficiency 4-ton HVAC system with new ductwork and added attic insulation (2023), a gas water heater (2023), and a new garbage disposal (2025). Refrigerator, washer, and dryer can remain. Additional highlights include a spacious mudroom with abundant storage, a large bonus room ideal for an office or playroom, and a workshop/boat house with a third garage door providing backyard access—perfect for boat or vehicle storage. A warm, welcoming property offering privacy, versatility, and thoughtful updates throughout.
