Plano’s popular Whiffletree neighborhood has the perfect blend of well-built 1980s and 1990s homes, mature landscaping, and some of the best schools in highly-rated Plano ISD. For our continuing series on great homes located within great school zones, here is a contemporary two-story, nearly 3,700-square-foot, four-bedroom home for $569,000.
This home, located at 3617 Snidow Drive, is zoned for Plano ISD’s Mathews Elementary (rated 10 of 10), Schimelpfenig Middle School (rated 9 of 10), Clark High School (4 of 10), and Plano Senior High (9 of 10). It’s listed (and owned) by Cyndi Schrob of Redfin Corporation.
If you veer to the right when you first walk in, you’ll find the formal dining room that features a stone inlay accent wall and unique window cut-outs. You’ll see those same cut-outs repeated in the decor throughout the home.
The dining room leads into the chef’s kitchen, which has three ovens and a 55-bottle wine cooler. You’ll notice the spread-apart layout of the kitchen places the cooktop and refrigerator against one far wall and the double oven with convection oven on the other side of the kitchen. A kitchen island offers extra prep space, as well.
There’s plenty of dine-in seating here with the breakfast nook and curved bar top that looks into the kitchen and backs the living room.
This 1997-built home features hand-scraped hardwood floors throughout the downstairs and two-story ceilings in the foyer and living room, which overlooks the pool and spa. The nearly ceiling-high wall of windows has an electric fireplace at its unique centerpiece. There’s more custom touches like electric shades, sound system wiring, and underground soaker hose system.
The downstairs master suite has unique architectural touches such as the three-window sitting area and a graduated ceiling.
The gray slate master bath features a glass shower, corner garden tub with tile bench, and his and hers vanities.
Upstairs you’ll find three spacious bedrooms, a second study, and a media room, which has its own second staircase from downstairs.
Finally, enjoy a shaded sitting area, heated pool and jetted spa in this beautiful Plano home, and the best part, a mosquito misting system.
