$395,000 - 1816 Emerald Isle Drive, Leander

Welcome to the home you've been waiting for — and the freedom that comes with it. Nestled on a generous 1/3-acre lot shaded by stunning mature trees and carrying no HOA, this thoughtfully designed single-story gem delivers the space, style, and ease of living that today's buyers are searching for. Step inside and feel the difference. An open floor plan draws you through sun-filled living spaces anchored by a gorgeous corner fireplace — the perfect spot for cool Texas evenings. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the living area and features a breakfast bar ideal for morning coffee or casual entertaining. When it's time to retreat, your primary suite delivers. Enjoy a beautifully upgraded ensuite bath with a walk-in shower — and when you're ready to unwind outside, simply step through your private door directly onto the screened-in porch. No bugs. Just peaceful evenings surrounded by mature trees and soft twilight lighting across your backyard. Speaking of that backyard — it's a showstopper. An expansive freshly repoured patio, a fully screened-in porch, lush landscaping and a large storage shed. The oversized side-entry garage adds incredible curb appeal with upgraded lighting and a rear-access door to the backyard. Built to last: 100% masonry exterior (3 sides brick, 1 side Hardi-plank), a fire hydrant at the street — a potential insurance advantage — and major upgrades already done: new 4-ton AC/heat with added return vents (2025), dual-pane windows (2025), roof (2021), repoured driveway and patio, gas water heater, stove & microwave (2018), and natural gas hookup for the dryer. Both bathrooms tastefully upgraded. Single-story living — no HOA, no stairs, no compromises. This gem will not last long.
