The Space:
The Space
Discover a living area anchored by a handsome stone fireplace and brightened by that show-stopping orange accent wall. The open floor plan flows naturally from the comfortable seating area into the fully equipped kitchen, where white cabinets, granite counters, and quality appliances make cooking a pleasure rather than a chore.
The dining area seats everyone comfortably, whether you're planning your day over coffee or sharing stories about your Texas adventures over dinner. Three well-appointed bedrooms provide restful retreats, each with its own character and plenty of natural light streaming through the windows.
