Property Details

Woods of Shavano draws buyers who know the difference between a house that's been maintained and one that's been genuinely improved. This four bedroom, single story home represents the latter...a property where the owners have spent years making deliberate, quality upgrades rather than simply keeping up with repairs. The living areas set the tone immediately. Rich wood floors run throughout, installed as part of a broader renovation that also brought smooth, scraped ceilings and fresh paint - small details that change how a room feels more than any furniture arrangement could. Shutters filter the Texas light and add elegant charm. A brick fireplace with gas logs anchors the main living space, the kind of feature that makes a room feel complete whether it's in use or not. The separate dining room gives the home a formality that open-concept layouts have quietly eliminated from most new construction - a dedicated space that actually functions as one. The kitchen and breakfast room carry their own character through warm Saltillo tile, a material that grounds the space in a way that feels intentional rather than dated. Granite countertops extend that sense of permanence, and a reverse osmosis system means the water has been filtered - something you'll notice the first time you fill a glass or run the coffee maker. Behind the house, a mature tree canopy creates genuine shade and privacy, the kind that takes decades to establish and can't be replicated by a landscaping crew on move-in day. A screened patio extends the living space into the cool Texas evenings and turns summertime barbeques into truly special events. A paver patio expands the usable outdoor living space without interrupting the natural feel, and a fully fenced yard with a storage shed rounds out what amounts to a very functional private outdoor zone. Mechanically, the home arrives in strong shape. A new HVAC system and water heater, both replaced in 2021, mean you're not inheriting aging systems that will demand attention in the near term. The laundry room accommodates both electric and gas hookups, a flexibility that most buyers don't think to ask about until they're moving in with a gas dryer. Updated light fixtures and added sconces complete a renovation that addressed both the infrastructure and the aesthetic and truly make this house a home.
