Introducing 12835 Chimes Drive, a standout residence on a tranquil cul-de-sac in the vibrant heart of the city. Offering an expansive 2,490 square feet and an exceptional Texas Basement addition, this home delivers rare space, comfort, and versatility.
The property is enveloped in lush, meticulously designed landscaping, from the impressive front driveway perfect for welcoming guests to the stunning back courtyard that truly steals the show.
Enjoy this stunning private courtyard, complete with a custom pergola for shade and style.
At the center of the home is a beautifully crafted custom kitchen, highlighted by a butcher-block island with a five-burner LG cooktop and full wrap-around storage, complete with soft-close drawers and cabinetry.
Deep cabinets and thoughtfully designed shelving occupy one side of the island, complemented by well-placed drawers near the sink and dishwasher, ensuring effortless access to all your culinary essentials.
An old-world elegant faucet, double sinks, classic subway tile, and striking double-waterfall edges on the granite and butcher-block counters bring a refined sense of sophistication. Paired with a double-oven setup featuring a convection oven/microwave combo, this kitchen is nothing short of a chef’s dream.
Beyond the door awaits one of the home’s finest spaces: a full-featured butler’s pantry that combines style and functionality.
The wall leading into the formal dining room features a custom built-in display area and extra storage, enhanced by dedicated accent lighting to beautifully highlight your décor and cookbooks.
Then there's the buffet for serving the largest of gatherings with access to the side courtyard perfect for morning coffee! Plus, more storage drawers, additional cabinetry and art accent lighting. Numerous electrical outlets are under the upper cabinets for a seamless uncluttered appearance! The previous owners really thought this through!
Breakfast on the courtyard with total privacy? Dreamy! Make this your herb garden, floral display area or alfresco dining space, whatever your imagination can create.
This authentic butler’s pantry is thoughtfully designed with two wine storage spaces, a built-in household desk, and ample additional storage. A coat rack behind the pantry door provides seamless access to the oversized two-car garage.
This laundry space is thoughtfully designed with hookups for a stackable washer/dryer combo (both gas and electric), a pull-out drying rack, and an additional hanging rod to keep your wardrobe fresh. A dedicated enclosed trash area ensures the room stays organized and clutter-free at all times.
Step through the foyer and into the enormous, light-filled family room!
Your art collection will shine along the main corridor that runs through the heart of the home, linking the living areas with the primary retreat.
Guests will enjoy added privacy in the powder room, painted in a calming, perfect shade of blue.
A wall of windows and double doors opens onto the main courtyard, a truly lush and gorgeous retreat. Wood tile ensures easy upkeep while providing the perfect backdrop for your favorite rugs, and a popular accent wall is ready to showcase your prized artwork.
A cozy wood-burning fireplace with a sitting hearth invites warmth on cold winter days. Built-ins provide additional storage with drawers, enclosed cabinets, and display areas, along with a charming reading nook perfect for little ones to curl up with a good book.
The massive formal dining room can accommodate the largest table, chairs, and your cherished China cabinet. Throughout the home, elegant crown molding adds an extra layer of sophistication.
Dimmable lighting throughout the kitchen and formal dining room allows you to set the perfect mood, while the old-world plaster walls take on a warm, candlelit glow in the evenings.
Another perspective of the formal dining room reveals direct access to the main courtyard. The home’s open flow creates an ideal setting for entertaining even the largest gatherings.
Experience outdoor living at its best in the huge courtyard, ideal for a firepit and entertaining, surrounded by vibrant landscaping. Garden boxes provide space for fresh vegetables, and a recently replaced fence (just two years ago) adds peace of mind.
Several sitting areas can be designed in back and under the custom pergola with evening accent lighting!
