This custom-built brick home sits on a 0.438-acre corner lot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Tanglewood Northwest. Built in 2006, it has about 3,263 square feet on one level, with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and a study. It is inside Stephenville city limits and zoned to Stephenville ISD. The great room is the heart of the house. A vaulted tongue-and-groove wood ceiling rises over a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, with high windows on either side that bring in natural light. The room opens to the kitchen and breakfast area, so everyone stays connected. The kitchen is built for people who cook and entertain. It has rich stained cabinetry, granite counters, a stone tile backsplash, a center island and a long peninsula with bar seating. Appliances include a cooktop under a stainless chimney hood, double wall ovens and a built-in microwave. Herringbone tile floors add character. A formal dining room with hardwood floors sits off the entry. The private study is lined with custom wood built-ins, with desk space, shelving and cabinets. The primary suite has a spacious bath with dual granite vanities, a soaking tub, and a large walk-in tile shower with a bench and grab bars. A second large bedroom has tall windows looking out over the front yard. Two more bedrooms share a full bath with a tub and a separate shower. A guest powder room and a utility room with a sink and storage complete the interior. Outside, an L-shaped covered patio wraps the back of the home and looks out over a large, level, privacy-fenced yard with mature shade trees. A detached 240-square-foot brick building with an overhead door works well as a workshop or storage. The oversized garage stands out. It is extra deep, with a built-in workbench and plenty of room for freezers, tools or a shop setup, and a wide concrete drive leads to it. The home is minutes from schools, shopping and Tarleton State.
