Nestled beneath a canopy of mature trees in the highly sought-after Country Forest neighborhood, this home offers a rare combination of privacy, character, and everyday livability. Anchored by a stunning 100+ year-old live oak in the front yard, the setting immediately sets the tone... Peaceful, established, and truly timeless. Step inside and you’re greeted by clean architectural lines, newer windows, and natural light-filled spaces. The expansive living area features rich wood paneling, exposed beams, and built-ins, giving the home a distinctive feel you won’t find in typical new construction. The flexible layout offers multiple living and entertaining areas that can function as a media room, game room, home office, or lounge. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and a central island. The primary bathroom has been enhanced with a walk-in shower, offering both comfort and long-term usability without sacrificing style. Major system updates including a new water heater and furnace (2025) provide peace of mind, so you can move in and enjoy the home without worrying about big-ticket items. Step outside to a private backyard retreat featuring a spacious deck and pergola surrounded by mature landscaping, creating a shaded, secluded environment perfect for relaxing evenings or hosting gatherings year-round. Location is where this home truly shines. Situated within Richardson ISD and just 2 miles from the award-winning MST Magnet School, you’ll have access to one of the top academic programs in the area. You’re also just minutes from shopping, dining, banking, and nearby college facilities offering fitness and community activities. With quick access to 635 and 75, commuting is simple while still enjoying the quiet, tucked away feel of this established neighborhood. This is more than a home, it’s a setting, a lifestyle, and a rare opportunity to own in one of the most serene pockets of North Dallas.
