Nestled in the highly walkable community of Sunset Heights and zoned to top rated nearby schools sits this truly amazing & like-new (built in 2019) modern farmhouse. The home BARELY looks lived in, as it has been meticulously maintained by its only owners. In addition to great curb appeal, this beauty offers wrought iron front fencing, wraparound porch, and lovely shaker-style siding. Taking care of the yard is a cinch with low-maintenance shrubs, and a 4-zone automatic sprinkler system.
The double-wide driveway can accommodate additional cars, while the 2-car oversized garage has high ceilings additional square footage to the sides and in front of where you would park your cars. A paved area to the side is the perfect spot for storing your trash cans and leads to a wooden gate with access to the back yard.
An aerial view of 810 East 23rd. The parking lot to the right of the house is employee parking for the new professional building that fronts Main St, and actually makes for a great neighbor! There are cars there M-F, 9-5, but that's it. The sellers taught their young son to ride a bike in that parking lot after hours and on weekends, as well as used it for overflow parking for weekend visitors.
Once inside the house, the office (or 4th bedroom, if you prefer/need) is immediately to your left (shown here on right), and the full bath is directly opposite (shown here on left). 
Close-up look as you enter the office / 4th bedroom. This room has a ceiling fan, windows overlooking the front yard, and clerestory windows which afford privacy but allow lots of light to pass into the room.
It also boasts 2 separate areas of built-in cabinets & shelving.

Beautiful full bath services the 1st floor of this remarkable home. The shower boasts timeless white subway tile, a fun floor tile, and seamless frame enclosure. The vanity has countertops designed to mimic the sophisticated look of marble, but with the durability of quartz. The large framed mirror adds a nice touch!
Venturing down the hall, you will come to the family room (or den). This room is marked by a wall of windows that provide unobstructed views of the back/side yard, and a large sliding glass door which provides egress to the covered back porch area. This room sits adjacent to the formal dining and is well-connected to the kitchen too.
This is another view of the family room, from standing near the sliding glass doors looking back towards the staircase. Note the ceiling fan and the gas fireplace which is operated with ease by a remote control device.

Yet another view of the family room, looking towards the patio area, and beyond towards the kitchen and laundry and mud rooms.
The formal dining seen in the forefront of this picture sits adjacent to the kitchen, and both adjoin the family room, allowing the entire space to flow seamlessly. It's really great for entertaining as its design allows for people in all 3 areas to feel connected.
This is the previous picture VIRTUALLY STAGED to show what it might look like with a formal dining table/chairs, and barstools at the eat-in kitchen island.
The beautiful kitchen boasts a GE appliance package (double oven, 6 burner gas range w/ griddle, custom vent hood, dishwasher). It also has a microwave, wine refrigerator, and pot filler. The full-size GE refrigerator also conveys with an accepted offer. Don't miss the beautiful lights! Pendant lights over the island, under cabinet lights, lights inside the glass-front upper cabinets. Clean and classic, this kitchen has everything you could ever need.
Looking from near the laundry room back towards the family room. Notice the marble-looking quartz counters, the tile backsplash, pull out trash can drawer, and walk-in pantry.
A 2nd look at the formal dining space. The sellers had a formal dining table w/ 6 chairs that fit very comfortably here, with room to spare for additional items (bar cart, buffet, etc).
Just outside the sturdy sliding glass doors and wall of windows in the formal dining room sits this fantastic covered patio area. There is a ceiling fan to keep you cool during the hot summer months, and gas connections for your grill. Notice that the gutters are all tied into the underground plumbing.

A closer look at the covered patio area, which measures approximately 11x12.
If you are looking for a home in the Heights, you are well aware that yards like this are the exception rather than the rule. The yard continues around in front of the house too. Your kids and dogs will thank you for giving them some space in which to play! On the right are two 100-year old pecan trees that are still producing pecans.
Beyond/behind the kitchen is the laundry room (there is a door to close this room off from the kitchen should you so choose). This washer/dryer set conveys with an accepted offer. There is loads of space here -- cabinet, counter, shelving, and hanging. Not shown is an additional large walk-in broom closet! There is also a utility sink for soaking clothes prior to wash, or rinsing off before you enter the main house.
This mud room sits conveniently between the garage and the laundry room. The door shown exits to the oversized garage. Don't miss the beautiful built in cabinets and hooks and cubby spaces to hang your umbrellas, back packs, muddy shoes, and more! This room has a 2nd interior door to close it off from the nearby laundry room, plus a 2nd exterior door which leads to a side yard area. This is a great and safe room to leave your dog if you don't want him/her roaming your house while you're gone.
Heading upstairs now. Note the solid white oak wood floors throughout the house, including the stair treads with wood balusters and wrought iron railing.
At the top of the stairs, you will find 2 secondary bedrooms and a full hall bath (not J&J) to the left; to the right, at the opposite end of the hall, is the private primary retreat. Behind where this picture was taken is the entry to the massive game room.
The primary bedroom is light and bright, and also huge! This room can accommodate any combination of your furniture pieces with room to spare. Vaulted ceilings give added volume to the room, and a modern light fixture adds some tasteful glam.
This is the previous picture VIRTUALLY STAGED to give you some idea of furniture configuration possibilities.
The master bedroom from the far wall looking back towards the ensuite bath.
No need to go to the spa when you have your very own at home! Airy and expansive, this room boasts marble-like porcelain tile floors, a 6' soaking tub and separate walk-in shower with frameless glass enclosure. There is also a private water closet opposite the shower. The walk-in closet is straight ahead.
Identical dual vanities boast framed mirrors, upgraded plumbing & lighting fixtures, and loads of cabinetry & drawer space, separated only by an additional section of cabinet and drawer space. There is plenty of room here for the two of you!
The master closet offers plenty of hanging and shelf space, along with built in cabinets (this view shows one side of the closet only!).
A true Texas-sized game room to do with as you please! This room sits over the garage and boasts high ceilings, a ceiling fan, and several windows. Those 2 little door ahead provide floored attic access. Don't miss the enclave straight ahead, which boasts 4 large built-in drawers and additional seating space. This area could make a great kids' reading or homework nook.
This is the previous picture VIRTUALLY STAGED to show a pool table, shuffle board table, and poker or card table! There is so much space, you can bring all your toys and make it a legitimate game room.
Standing near the far side wall of windows looking back towards the front of the game room, and beyond toward the upstairs landing & master bedroom. 
Standing from closer to the enclave area looking toward the front of the game room.
This is the previous picture VIRTUALLY STAGED to show a more relaxed, comfortable use of this room. Maybe the kids would like their own place to hang out with friends, play games, and watch tv?
A close up of the wet bar in this room. It comes with a beverage chiller, an abundance of cabinets and drawers, white subway tile backsplash, and a sink! It even has under cabinet lighting.
The 1st secondary bedroom features ceiling fan, large windows, and a walk-in closet.
Alternate view of the secondary bedroom.
This is the previous picture VIRTUALLY STAGED.
The 2 secondary bedrooms share a large HALL bath (not a jack & jill). The front portion of the bathroom offers dual sinks and an abundance of storage. The framed mirror covers the entire length of the vanity, with upgraded light & plumbing fixtures to punctuate this beautiful bathroom.
There is a door separating the vanity area shown in the preceding picture from this area which houses the tub & toilet. There is additional storage space here for your convenience. This is a great arrangement because someone can be showering while someone else is brushing their teeth!
The 2nd secondary bedroom is nearly identical in size, and offers a ceiling fan and large walk-in closet (not shown).
This is the previous picture VIRTUALLY STAGED.
