You are free to garden in the huge backyard or sit and relax in 3 separate fenced areas and take in the peace of natural land behind you. You are also free from any HOAs, their dues, or rules, and free from high taxes with the rate being 1.72% in 2024.

Then there is the combination laundry room/primary closet that leads into the sauna room. No need to ever leave home. The stairs lead up to a huge game room with a wet bar and refrigerator. This room connects to a huge upstairs balcony, another place to peacefully sit and chill. Just off the game room is a designated media room ready for your movie night or gaming matches. Also off the game room is a small room with a closet and window that is the designated office. Now, you are free to work uninterrupted from home if you wish. Down the hall are 2 bedrooms and a full bath. Leander schools await the youngsters in this area as well as nearby Quinlan Park with its play area and boat launch.
