THE PROPERTY
Get to know the property.
The kitchen was taken to the studs and rebuilt from scratch: ceiling raised to 8 feet, 42-inch solid plywood box cabinets in slim shaker walnut with soft-close doors, honed granite countertops, wine refrigerator, and an all-new appliance package. Sleek, functional, and built to last. Both bathrooms received the same uncompromising treatment — fully renovated down to the plumbing, tile, electrical, and fixtures (primary 2025, guest 2026). The primary bath is a genuine spa moment: fluted double vanity, brushed gold hardware, dual arched mirrors, and designer sconce lighting.
The rest of the list reads like a home inspector's dream: new lifetime-warranty windows, new solid shaker interior doors and trim, full interior repaint, Nest smart thermostat, MyQ smart garage door, tile-floored 2-car garage, washer/dryer convey. AC condenser replaced 2024. Gutters 2025. Deck restained 2025. HOA replaced the roof in 2024, completed a full exterior repaint in 2024, and is installing a new fence in 2026. HVAC on a twice-annual service schedule.
Step outside to two private outdoor living spaces — a deck canopied by heritage oaks and a granite fire pit lounge area tucked behind full privacy fencing. French doors connect the living room to the tree-shaded deck seamlessly.
Minutes to MoPac, 360, the Domain, and Bull Creek.
$489,000. Turnkey. Northwest Hills. Nothing left to do but fall in love with it. Subject to underwriting approval and program guidelines. Contact lender for complete details and qualification requirements.
