Description

Beautifully updated 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 car garage home in the heart of Denton with modern updates, versatile spaces, and an ideal location. Nearly every surface has been thoughtfully updated, including windows, sliding door, flooring, countertops, interior paint, lighting, plumbing fixtures, electrical panel, HVAC, kitchen including raising the ceiling, and bathrooms, creating a home that is truly move in ready. Updates to the floorplan have opened up the formal living and dining into the main living area to create improved visibility and additional natural light. A rare bonus is the garage space: rear entry one car garage plus a detached second garage bay, ideal for a workshop, hobby space, extra storage, home gym, or additional parking. The screened patio provides a comfortable outdoor living area perfect for enjoying your morning coffee, grilling with family and friends, or watching a rainstorm roll in. It also offers a wonderful covered space for children and pets to play throughout the year. The oversized backyard provides plenty of room for recreation, gardening, landscaping, pets, and outdoor gatherings. A tall privacy fence installed in 2023 enhances both security and seclusion, creating a peaceful backyard retreat. Important system upgrades include a new HVAC system in 2021 and water heater in 2022, along with a new electrical panel in 2025, offering added peace of mind for years to come. Conveniently located near shopping, restaurants, grocery stores, medical offices, and a nearby hospital, this home also offers quick access to UNT, TWU, NCTC, and Denton's vibrant downtown Square. It'll be near the new HEB grocery store coming to Denton. Enjoy the perfect combination of modern updates, flexible living space, and everyday convenience in one of Denton's most desirable locations.
