Well-priced five-bedroom home on a quiet cul-de-sac in sought-after Lovejoy ISD, offering 3,262 square feet on a 0.26-acre lot framed by mature shade trees. A brick-and-stone facade with arched entry opens to a two-story foyer where rich hardwood floors carry through every main-level living area. A formal dining room with crown molding and chandelier greets you to the left, while a private study with French doors provides a flexible space just off the entry. The family room is the heart of the home with soaring vaulted ceilings, a stone fireplace, and a wall of windows overlooking the covered patio and backyard. It flows openly into the kitchen, which features white cabinetry, granite countertops, tile backsplash, a painted center island, gas cooktop, built-in oven and microwave, Bosch dishwasher, and a built-in desk nook. The breakfast area sits adjacent with views toward the patio and landscaped yard. The refrigerator, washer, and dryer all convey. An updated powder bath near the entry showcases a vessel sink on a rustic wood vanity with textured tile surround. The downstairs primary suite is generously proportioned with a bay window alcove, and the en-suite offers dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a frameless glass shower with mosaic tile accent. Upstairs is designed for a growing family, with four secondary bedrooms and a large game room featuring vaulted ceilings and built-in arched display niches that easily flex as a media room, playroom, or second living area. The roof and gutters are new and Class 3 impact resistant, a significant cost already handled. Out back, a cedar-beamed covered patio with flagstone flooring and string lights opens to a wide, flat yard fully enclosed by a tall privacy fence with mature trees providing shade throughout. This is a rare chance to own five bedrooms in Lovejoy ISD at a price point that is genuinely hard to find.
