SO MUCH OUTDOOR SPACE you'll forget that it's a town home! With 3 bedrooms, 2 ½ baths & over 2,200 square feet (per NCAD), this home is larger than many detached homes of the same configuration. It also has an open atrium centerpiece on the first floor and an abundance of outdoor deck space - covered & uncovered - on the second floor! As an end unit, this townhouse has a fenced side yard AND it has a delightful view, facing the private lake - with ducks, turtles and other visiting shore birds. The awning-covered front porch welcomes guests into the foyer, which flows into the formal living room & formal dining area. The casual den is warm & welcoming, with a wall of lighted built-in cabinetry and a wall of French doors providing a view of the atrium. A roomy galley kitchen connects the formal dining area & breakfast nook, with its own view of the atrium; a half bath is tucked just off the den. Upstairs you'll find the spacious primary suite with its own covered front balcony overlooking the lake, lovely plantation shutters, en suite bath with dual sinks, shower and walk-in closet. The second full bath (with tub/shower combo) and linen closet is on the upstairs hallway to serve the second and third bedrooms, which face the spacious back deck. Second floor deck is accessible from both the first-floor atrium and the third bedroom. Laundry area is located in garage; original 3rd garage space has been converted to storage - and there's LOTS of storage! Don't miss the doggy door into the fenced side yard. This pet-friendly community allows up to 3 pets per unit; has a dog park; and supplies the lake from its private water well. Quick commute to TAMU-CC, Bay Area Hospital and other employers. Priced to sell so act quickly!
