Welcome to 8649 Running River, a home that makes a great first impression before you even walk in. It sits on a corner lot with a big backyard and is just minutes from Presidio Junction and Alliance Town Center. Right inside, a private office with a door gives you a quiet spot for work calls, and the formal dining room is a great flexible space that is currently being used as a playroom. The kitchen is the heart of the home, with a large center island, granite counters, stainless appliances, and more cabinet space than you'll know what to do with. It opens to a bay-windowed dining area and a living room with a stone fireplace, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. The primary suite has its own bay window sitting area, a garden tub, a separate shower, and two walk-in closets. Out back, a covered patio with a large ceiling fan leads to an extended flagstone patio, cedar garden beds, and a big grassy yard with room for weekend cookouts, kids, and dogs to run. An 8-foot fence along the back adds extra privacy, so the yard feels like your own quiet retreat. Recent updates include a new thermostat, an updated condenser unit motor, and a replaced chimney chase. You won't see them in the photos, but you'll appreciate them from day one. Come see it today!
