About This Property

Impeccably upgraded 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home with a dedicated office in the sought-after Belterra community. This 2,826 sqft home (per April 2025 appraisal) sits on a 9,888 sqft lot and has been thoughtfully enhanced with high-end finishes and custom features throughout. Built in 2014, the home offers Canadian Ash wood flooring in the main areas, travertine tile in all bathrooms, and custom maple cabinetry with granite counters and soft-close drawers in the hallway, half bath, and primary bath. The kitchen is equipped with GE Profile double ovens, convection microwave, and dishwasher (2022), a new garbage disposal (2025), granite countertops, pro-painted cabinets, and upgraded lighting. The spacious living room features a redesigned fireplace with a stone surround and maple mantle. The primary suite offers a spa-like experience with a remodeled bath featuring upgraded cabinetry and storage. All windows are fitted with wood shutters, and the entire home was freshly painted in late 2020, including ceilings, baseboards, and window sills.

Upgrades include a new Culligan water softener, kitchen sink purifier, a hot water recirculation system, surge protectors (2022, 2024), new garage door motor and switch (2024), and a larger AC unit and furnace (2022). Exterior improvements include a new roof and gutters (2023), newly stained front door (2024), new screens (2024), and fresh sod and mulch (2025). Automatic sprinklers and a rainwater barrel support outdoor plant care. Additional features include a 3-car garage, propane heating, central cooling, and HOA dues of just $35/month. Washer and dryer added in 2020. Window and driveway cleaning, bathroom steam cleaning, and new bathroom mirrors completed in April 2025. This turnkey property combines luxury, comfort, and peace of mind-just minutes from top-rated schools, shopping, and everything Austin has to offer.
