The sidewalk leads from the street up through the tree-shaded yard between freshly mulched paver-lined landscape beds to this expansive front porch flanked by limestone columns with old-world-inspired carriage lamps.
Welcome to 1918 Pampas Trail! This 2003-built two-story home is located in the Friendswood Lakes community and it features a traditional red brick exterior with Austin limestone accents, a charming covered porch, and freshly mulched landscaping.

To the right of the foyer, an extra wide and gracefully arched entrance leads into this formal dining room with hand-scraped wood floors, double crown and chair rail molding, a front-facing window, and a wrought iron candelabra chandelier.

The sweeping staircase with wood treads leads up to this second-floor landing, a Juliet balcony over the formal living room, and an extra spacious game room with a trayed ceiling, brand new plush carpet, and a built-in media center.
The upstairs game room offers an abundance of windows with incredible pool views and ample natural light in the space. It's the perfect solution for a playroom, a teen hangout, or a family movie night.
