Behind the gates of the Cottages at Northwoods in Avery Ranch, this former model home is on the most premier lot in the community-ideally situated near the front of the neighborhood and backing to a dedicated greenbelt for added privacy and tranquility. Homes in this tucked-away section rarely come available, and the pride of ownership throughout the area is obvious. The freshly landscaped over-sized yard is meticulously maintained year-round by the HOA, offering a pristine, low-maintenance outdoor setting that complements the natural beauty of the greenbelt. Step inside to soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and a fresh coat of paint that enhances the model-quality feel. Designer tile floors, granite countertops, stainless appliances, and shaker-style cabinetry reflect the thoughtful upgrades and attention to detail expected from a builder's showcase home. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly from the living area into the kitchen, perfect for both quiet evenings and entertaining guests. The main-level primary suite is situated at the rear of the home, offering greenbelt views and featuring a spacious walk-in closet and walk-in shower. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a full bath provide flexibility for guests, a home office, or hobbies. The backyard is a rare highlight: directly bordering the protected shaded greenbelt with no rear neighbors, it provides a sense of privacy and natural serenity that is hard to match in the area. It's an ideal retreat for morning coffee, evening relaxation, or weekend gatherings. Residents enjoy walkable access to the community pool, amenity center, Brushy Creek Hike and Bike Trail, and Metro Rail station, offering unmatched convenience for outdoor activities and commuting. Served by highly rated Round Rock ISD schools, this home blends thoughtful design, a premier lot, and an exceptional location in one of the most established and least frequently available enclaves of Avery Ranch.
