n abundance of amenities, tasteful style, and a delightful, well thought out layout, inside AND out, make this Lake District home a surefire winner for someone with a thorough list of requirements in a centrally located destination style property that’s just minutes from everything! --- Constructed in 1948, but rebuilt from the ground up in 2016 after a house fire, this nearly new home received a comprehensive remodel and upgrade in 2020 and 2021. At that time, new flooring, new cabinetry, new countertops, and new fixtures were added to enhance the home’s warmth and ambiance. Then, expanding the home’s interior footprint by 660 square feet, the attached garage was enclosed, thus forming a new primary suite. Now, presented with 2,196 square feet of living space and expanded to a four-bedroom, three-bathroom layout; the transformed home is appealing, vibrant, and serene. --- Entry into the home allows for peeks of what’s to come. With its stately vaulted ceiling and soaring fireplace, the indoor living area acts as a central, gathering room at the back of the home. At the front, split by the living room wall, the generously sized kitchen and dining area. Here, natural light is abundant as is storage and convenience afforded by the full suite of modern appliances. Featuring dual primary suites, the original primary suite tucks behind the fireplace at the back corner of the home. There, a private, ensuite bathroom benefits from a host of recent updates while the private location enjoys separation from the remainder of the home. The new, second primary suite is cavernous with dual closets and an exceptionally large, spa-like bathroom which showcases a steam shower. --- On the opposite side of the home, two, large bedrooms share a beautiful hallway accessible bathroom. Sequestered on their own, these make perfect spaces for siblings or workspaces for those who need a bit of noise isolation when others are sleeping. --- Outside, the second living room is featured under a lovely, covered patio. While not heated or cooled, the screened porch and eastern exposure mean that this is THE place to be eight or nine months out of the year! With lovely views of the backyard paradise, tranquil sounds of the waterfall featurette, and easy access to the detached garage; this space is a must for those in the know. --- Rounding off the impressive amenity list, the sprawling .75-acre lot is largely biased to the completely fenced backyard. Accessed through an automated gate across the newly poured driveway, the backyard space features a garden area near the larger primary suite’s exterior door, the aforementioned water feature, a fire pit, enough greenspace and lawn for flag football, soccer, and even dog agility training, and of course, the super impressive garage! --- Owners of boats and large trucks rejoice: we have a place for your toys! Constructed to house large trucks and bass boats, this garage easily accommodates large trucks and boats without any compromise! What’s more, should you wish to use the oversized, but standard height enclosed garage, the open garage already has plumbing and electrical roughed in so workshop or guest house conversion is a piece of cake! Whether you’re seeking extra storage, a real workshop, additional accommodations, or truly need a four-car garage, this recently constructed building has you covered! --- If you’ve been seeking a residence with a bit of land, require four bedrooms, dual suites, and three full bathrooms, hope for a workshop, large garage, or four car garage; you know it’s nearly impossible to find just two or three of those amenities in one spot. Typically, they exist well outside of Waco requiring a long commute and are far from convenient. Here, everything is one place! What’s more, it’s just five minutes to the airport, 5 minutes to Cameron Park, 10 minutes to Baylor University and downtown Waco, and just five minutes to markets, restaurants, and shopping. Simply put, there isn’t a more comprehensive, more appealing package on the market! --- If this unicorn has piqued your interest, call or text immediately! --- Given that this is a one-of-a-kind property, you’ll want to call and see this distinctive residence in person as soon as possible. Once you do, we think you’ll see how special it is to be here. Call or text today!
