A beautifully updated mid-century modern home in the coveted University Hills neighborhood, tucked away on an incredible lot that spans nearly half an acre and backs directly to Little Walnut Creek, allowing private access!
The home exudes curb appeal with its clean lines, white trim, all white stone exterior, and wood accents, framed by mature trees that provide ample shade and privacy. The interior showcases a neutral color palette with a contemporary design aesthetic and an open-concept layout with multiple living spaces.
The entry leads to a light and bright spacious living room graced by a chic curved brick fireplace and a wall lined with windows that fill the space with natural light. Sliding doors open to the private backyard, extending the living space outdoors and allowing for easy indoor-outdoor living.
The gorgeous kitchen is open-facing to the shared living spaces and boasts a timeless quality with crisp white cabinetry, modern appliances, expansive countertops, and a beautiful wall of windows that lets in sunshine and provides relaxing views of the backyard.
There’s a useful breakfast bar for extra seating and eating on the go, as well as an adjacent casual dining space that’s in between the kitchen and living room. Across the way, a partially open formal dining room provides a highly flexible space ideal for holidays, family dinners, hosting friends, or after school snacks and doing homework!
The primary bedroom has high ceilings, an updated ceiling fan, a custom closet with built-ins to help with organization and storage, and an en suite bathroom that has modern fixtures, a big tub/shower, a spacious vanity, ample countertop space and cabinets for storage, and a roomy tub/shower.
The home also includes three secondary bedrooms, all with big windows and nicely-sized closets with plenty of space for storage. The shared full bathroom is close to the guest bedrooms, it has a large vanity with enough cabinet space for sharing, pendant lighting, and a shower/tub combination. The laundry room is conveniently located at the back of the house, neatly tucked away behind the kitchen.
This exceptional backyard is a private gem that backs directly to the Little Walnut Creek and provides private access. Mature trees and thoughtfully placed landscaping elements enhance the sense of privacy and seclusion throughout the entire backyard, providing a lovely retreat from the hustle and bustle of the vibrant city.
