Description
Pull through the automatic solar gate and drive along the winding gravel driveway - Elm Creek Estate unfolds as a pastoral sanctuary where mornings begin with mist over the 1/3-acre stock tank and evenings close with the slow, contented low of a Red Angus herd grazing in well-kept pastures. Just minutes to town yet feeling a world away, the 2006 home (3,076 sq ft) sits framed by mature elm, oak, and pecan along seasonal Big Elm Creek; front and back covered porches with fans offer cool, shaded places to sip coffee at sunrise or watch stars unroll at dusk. Inside, two living areas and a wood-burning fireplace invite quiet afternoons and lively gatherings alike, while a large kitchen with eat-in bar, breakfast nook and formal dining makes everyday meals feel like an occasion. The master suite is a private retreat with tray ceiling, garden tub and dual sinks; practical comforts include all LED lighting, two HVAC systems, roomy laundry with garage access, full ADA accessibility, and a two-car garage. The land is improved pasture for hay and a cow/calf operation, excellent fencing and cross-fencing, several working pens, and a 20 x 40 metal building (2021) on slab with 12-ft roll-up doors, water and electricity for equipment, vehicles or hay. A larger 3/4-acre pond in the back pasture mirrors big skies, while the fenced yard with cattle guard keeps the homestead secure and private.
