Today’s Tuesday Two Hundred will leave you amazed that so many high-end amenities and thoughtful details are available in a Lake Highlands home for under $300K.
The house at 10006 Chimney Hill Ln. is located in the Country Forest-Jackson Meadows neighborhood, about as far north as you can go in Lake Highlands before bumping into Richardson. This is outside the LBJ loop, and for some, that’s a deal breaker. But I promise, once you see this house, you won’t care. (And really, it’s fewer than ten minutes to White Rock Lake and NorthPark Center, minutes away from the Richardson Tech Corridor, and only 15 minutes north of downtown Dallas. Perspective, y’all.)
It’s a 3-3 with 2,619 square feet, built in 1979. Inside, you’ll find everything from handscraped hardwood floors and a kitchen with custom cabinetry, to cedar-paneled vaulted ceilings and a stunning master bathroom.
This stunner is newly listed by Angela Garcia with Keller Williams Realty Arlington for $295,000.
The drive-up appeal makes this house an eye-catcher, with landscaping, a circular drive, and a real sense of having arrived as you walk past a private courtyard. The entryway is bright with windows next to and above the door, and vaulted ceilings.
Right next to the entry is a formal living area, featuring a hidden wet bar with ice maker and large windows looking out onto the courtyard. It’s also your first glimpse of those lovely handscraped hardwoods.
A two-way gas fireplace opens to the formal living area by the entry and the sunken second living area, which the current owners are using as a pool room. The vaulted ceilings are paneled with cedar wood and the room is generously sized for large furniture.
A block of built-in cabinets provides lots of storage and windows and glass doors offer a glimpse to the covered patio.
The kitchen was a total renovation, with custom cabinetry featuring pullout drawers, trash valet, hidden appliance nook, pantry, and cookie sheet slots. New stainless steel appliances include a wine refrigerator and convection oven.
There’s both a formal dining area at the front of the house and a second one closer to the kitchen.
The master suite opens with an elegant wood wall feature that calls your attention to the space. The windows look out onto the private courtyard and the angled ceiling adds visual interest.
The master bathroom was another big reno in this Lake Highlands house. That center vanity is a unique feature, making the room easy to navigate, from the private toilet area to large closets. And the shower! It’s huge, a walk-in steam area with multiple shower heads, body sprays, a seating area, and natural stone accents.
The second and third bedrooms have updated lighting and new carpeting. One of the bathrooms has granite counters, a new sink, and features. The other is a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with double sinks, lots of cabinet space, and privacy windows.
A back living room is a great relaxation space, with a surround sound system, built-in cabinetry, decorative wall design, modern paint, updated lighting. Large doors open to a private outdoor area with a hot tub—leave those doors open, and you can watch TV from the water. So nice!
The back patio is covered and staged to be a total outdoor living area with two ceiling fans. Lovely.
This Lake Highlands home offers so much for under $300K—are you as impressed as I am? Leave a comment!
