About This Home

THIS ONE JUST FEELS LIKE HOME! This stylish 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhome in Goodnight Ranch checks all the boxes. The open living, dining, and kitchen areas flow seamlessly together, creating a bright, airy great room that feels even larger thanks to the high ceilings. Love natural light? The high accent windows flood the home with sunshine while maintaining privacy. Upstairs, you'll find all the bedrooms plus the laundry room - because carrying laundry baskets up and down the stairs is overrated. The sunny primary suite features a private balcony and a spacious bathroom with dual sinks, so there's plenty of room to get ready. The front yard adds to the home's curb appeal, while the backyard is your own private space to relax and enjoy. The detached 2-car garage is conveniently located behind the home with easy alley access. Love the outdoors? Goodnight Ranch is a dream location for walkers, joggers, hikers, and nature lovers thanks to its close proximity to Onion Creek Metropolitan Park and McKinney Falls State Park. The community also offers fantastic amenities including a pool, community center, playgrounds, parks, and walking trails. Residents must enroll in either the AC Filter Only Program ($20/month) or the full Resident Benefits Package ($50/month), which includes filters, identity protection, pest control, credit building, and rent rewards. $150 Admin.
