Custom built 5 bedroom home on 3 acres offers all the benefits of country living without the country's isolation. Quick access to major highways, grocery stores, and highly rated schools provides the best of both worlds. Convenient one-level living, custom built-ins, vaulted ceiling, and an over-sized 4 ft hallway. Each of the 5 bedrooms has a walk-in-closet and built-in shelves. As an added bonus, one bedroom also comes with an over-sized, professional-grade whiteboard making it perfect for your home office. Additionally, this home has an expansive basement with two large storage rooms and a chimney flue - a pot belly stove would make a cozy addition to this fully finished bonus area. The light-filled walkout basement leads directly outside to a huge paved patio and extensive driveway allowing for indoor/outdoor entertaining. Outdoor lighting (including a private utility pole that illuminates the fenced-in area adjacent to the home) and a tree-laden buffer surrounding half the property that has access to a pecan tree and stream, allows you to enjoy and host private gatherings day or night. The property also includes a high, 6-foot perimeter fence enclosing both a 12x16 shed - and separate 12x16 tack room - both with electricity, and tack room with it's own water source. The extensive driveway can more than accommodate a horse trailer, so bring your HORSES!!
