    Newly completed 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home on a large half an acre near Birch Creek State Park. This 704-square-foot home pairs a fresh, modern interior with peaceful Texas country surroundings. Step inside to an open-concept living and kitchen area with a vaulted ceiling, recessed lighting and modern finishes throughout. The kitchen features white cabinetry, granite countertops, a tile backsplash, stainless open-bowl sink and contemporary fixtures. A brand new stainless range and over-the-range microwave will be installed prior to closing. Barn-style sliding doors add warmth and character, while updated flooring, fixtures and finishes give the home a clean, move-in-ready feel.

    What the owner loves about this home
    What I love about this home is the combination of a fresh, modern interior and the peaceful outdoor lifestyle that comes with the location. The open living space, vaulted ceiling and natural light make the home feel bright and welcoming, while the covered front porch and half-acre setting give you room to slow down and enjoy the surroundings. Being just minutes from Birch Creek State Park and Lake Somerville means hiking, biking, fishing, boating and beautiful sunsets are practically in your backyard. Wildlife is part of the scenery, and deer are a common sight. It feels tucked away and peaceful, yet you’re still within easy reach of Somerville and just a drive from College Station and Texas A&M. It’s a wonderful place for someone looking for a full-time home, weekend escape or a quiet home base near the lake.
