Dramatic brick fireplaceSoaring architectureBuilt-in outdoor kitchenGranite flooringVaulted ceilingsPergola-covered deckMain-floor primary suite

Nestled in the tree-lined Lakes of Fondren SW subdivision, this beautiful 4-bed, 3.5-bath home blends soaring architecture with modern comfort. Vaulted ceilings and a dramatic brick fireplace anchor the living room; granite flooring (2001) flows into an Urban Designer kitchen remodel (2007) with custom cabinetry and stainless appliances. The main-floor primary suite offers a spa-like remodeled bath (2016) with soaking tub and walk-in shower. A pergola-covered deck, built-in outdoor kitchen, and Tesla charger complete the package. Major updates: new HVAC (2025), AC condenser (2023), roof (2021), water/UV filtration (2021), new chimney top (2017), and Leaf Filter gutters (2024). Enjoy peaceful, established surroundings with neighborhood walking trails, a central lake, playground, tennis courts, swimming pools and neighborhood security patrol.
