The King of Tower Hill, (a unicorn) sits on the corner of a .41-acre lot maximizing an estate-like setting with a brick walled back yard oasis and a site studded with 6 huge paper shell pecan trees that measure about 6' in circumference. Drive-up appeal begins with a porte-cochĆØre adorned with a Tesla charging station and a 2 car wide circle driveway. This āNot Your Square Box Homeā features pocket doors, mid-20th century Oak floors, Conversation or Reading Coves, Updated Kitchen, and an Attic Fan for those just-right outside, no AC needed temperatures. The contiguous placement of living-public use areas is genius. Primary Room parallel to the Family Room, features a glass wall to the exterior and connects to the Screened and Covered Summer Room creating a 994 sq. ft. space. In the cool-cool of an evening the screened back porch with ceiling fan is a 'fine place' to unwind, listen to feathered friends and enjoy the backyard solitude, privacy and beauty.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtorsāunless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
