About this home

Lake views set the backdrop for everyday living in this 4-bedroom, 3-bath brick home backing to Joe Pool Lake in Southgate Addition. With a roof and two HVAC units less than six months old, the big updates are already done, so the focus can stay on enjoying the view. Morning starts in the bay-windowed breakfast nook, coffee in hand, looking out over the backyard toward the water. The kitchen sits at the center of it all, with a large island, breakfast bar, pantry, and stainless steel appliances, opening to a living room with wood floors and windows framing the lake. A formal dining room off the tiled entry is ready for dinner gatherings and celebrations. The floorplan flexes as needs change. The main-level primary suite is a private retreat with a tray ceiling, an oversized walk-in closet, and a spa-style bath with dual sinks, a garden tub, and a separate walk-in shower. A bedroom with French doors and a closet works just as well as a study, and two more bedrooms share a full bath nearby. Upstairs, the second living area, with its gas fireplace, closet, and full bath, can become a second primary suite, game room, or media room for movie nights by the fire. Evenings belong outside on the open patio, where the large backyard, framed by wood fencing, and wrought iron, opens to lake views. A separate utility room and an oversized two-car garage keep things organized, and major highways, shopping, and dining are close by.
