Seems like everyone these days is building big and boxy. More power to ‘em. But for some of us, there’s nothing like a tried and true ranch-style spread. And the spread-ier, the better.
A great example is 10802 Strait Lane. Yes, THAT Strait Lane. The kind of street you like to drive down and ogle. Well, here’s your opportunity to be one of the ogled!
Megan Stern with Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate recently listed the five-bedroom, 5.1-bath home on .998 acres (can we just round up to one, please?) that also has a gorgeous, manicured backyard with pool, water features and a north/south tennis court.
“It’s really rare to find a single story home that is so livable,” said Stern. “With its incredible bones and quality finish-out, it’s virtually ready to go. Some lucky owner can adapt the timeless interior to their personal preferences and move right in. It’s well maintained, ideally located and priced well for the area at $2,899,000.”
As is often the case with ranch-style homes, room sizes are generous, including the 42-foot-by-23-foot great room with vaulted ceiling, which can be divided into two or more distinct entertaining spaces with some strategic furniture placement. The adjacent dining room overlooks the pool so should conversation falter, the scenery provides great fodder for small talk.
In the well-equipped kitchen, which connects to the dining room, you’ll find all the appliances one would expect to find in a Strait Lane home – Thermador, Bosch and Sub-Zero, specifically. The breakfast room opens onto a covered patio should you take your coffee with a heaping spoonful of fresh air and soothing fountain sounds.
Other features worth mentioning: the spacious primary bedroom with fireplace, dual baths and patio access; the family/game/really-anything-you-want-it-to-be room with projector, screen, wet bar and media closet; and loads of storage space throughout.
Mature live oaks punctuate the property providing the ideal ratio of shade to sun. And with their evergreen foliage, they also create picturesque views year-round through the many large windows. The home’s setback allows for plenty of parking in the circle drive when guests come calling, and a gated drive limits access to the three-car garage.
If this kind of ranch-style life sounds good to you, give Megan a call at (214) 912-0425 or email [email protected]. Megan has listed 10802 Strait Lane for $2.899 million.
