$1,250,000

Smart Buyer Rebate $12,500

Stunning home in highly desirable Garden Oaks, combines traditional charm with modern amenities. Immaculate condition, better than new construction! Love at first sight, soon as you walk through the front door. Beautiful hardwood floors throughout complements the wood cabinetry and trims. Unbelievable oversized bedrooms and walk-in closets. The Primary Suite has a private balcony off the sitting area, a luxurious bath retreat with a large soaking tub, separate stand-up glass enclosed shower and his-and-her vanities. And, to convince you this is your dream home, look no further than the walk-in closet with built-ins galore. Secondary bedrooms are generously sized, with adjoining jack-and-jill bathrooms. The flex room upstairs offers so many options, such as a 4th bedroom, a study or a game room. Low maintenance backyard (with automatic sprinkler system) comes with your own private heated pool.
