5220 Saddle Drive

In the middle of the beautifully established and well-loved neighborhood of Garden Ranch is this absolute gem of a 5-bedroom home. The oversized lot makes plenty of play space in the back yard where you will find a huge composite deck, a hot tub, and several fruit trees about to bloom and start growing their annual harvest. There's extra parking space in front across from what will soon be a flower-filled front yard. Prepare to be impressed the moment you step in the front door as there are solid hickory floors and tasteful luxurious finishes throughout. The kitchen has been opened up with fantastic trim carpentry, and then fully upgraded with exceptional walnut cabinetry, gorgeous granite counters, a stone-wall breakfast bar, a gas range, double oven, plus recessed and decorative pendant lighting. The family room retains the charm of the classic, red-brick, wood-burning fireplace, and is brightened by full glass patio doors that open to the expansive deck and long back yard, just like the dining room doors. The over-sized master suite is absolutely to die for, with more solid hickory flooring in the large bedroom, and a bathroom upgrade that feels like a spa with heated floors, a double vanity, double shower, and Roman soaking tub. Add a walk-in closet and a smart-touch mirror and you'll wonder how you ever lived without all these amazing touches. You'll find 3 more bedrooms upstairs, one of which is attached to the other full bathroom and big enough to be share-able. Laundry is upstairs too, where most of your laundry needs to start and finish anyway. Then the more private basement has a nice big family room and a 5th bedroom. Be sure to walk the neighborhood as you are 4 houses away from a park, two blocks from paved accessible trails, and three blocks from Austin Bluffs Open Space for more adventurous trails and mountain biking. Ask for the 3-D tour link, and then come tour it in-person before someone else snatches up this unique gem.
