    Split-bedroom planBright open-concept living spaceGorgeous cherry hardwood floorsNew windows throughoutLuxe designer fixturesDual walk-in closetsGenerous walk-in pantry
    Welcome to Old Elmwood! One of Abilene's most sought-after neighborhoods & where this stunning home delivers the perfect blend of timeless character, thoughtful modern updates & designer selections worthy of envy! From the moment you arrive, the beautiful landscaping & curb appeal make an unforgettable first impression. Situated on a sprawling lot graced with large-mature trees that provide beauty, shade & an established feel that can't be replicated. Out back, the patio creates the perfect setting for entertaining or unwinding, & a rear-entry 2-car garage that could also be used as a great workshop space. Step through the new front door into a bright, open-concept living space anchored by gorgeous cherry hardwood floors that flow throughout the main areas. The layout is as functional as it is beautiful - open & airy where it counts, yet thoughtfully designed with a split-bedroom plan that gives everyone their own retreat. The kitchen has been outfitted with new stainless-steel appliances & a generous walk-in pantry that will delight any home chef. The primary suite is a true sanctuary with dual walk-in closets & a spa-like en-suite bathroom. Fully renovated with the kind of designer finishes that make getting ready feel like a luxury experience. The secondary bathroom has been equally well-appointed with the same elevated selections & attention to detail you'd expect to see in a luxury build. The updates go far beyond cosmetic. In recent years, significant investments in the home's core systems were made - replacing the roof, HVAC system, water heater, & electrical panel all in one fell swoop - giving tremendous peace of mind for years to come. Add to that, the new windows throughout, fresh interior paint from top to bottom, luxe designer fixtures & you have a home that is as sound as it is beautiful. Homes of this caliber don't last. Here's your rare opportunity to own a character-filled gem where all the right updates have already been done for you.
