SPACES TO GATHER. MEMORIES TO MAKE!

Room to Relax
With over 2300 sq ft of space, there’s plenty of room for everyone to spread out and find their perfect spot.
★ "Beautiful house. Lots of space." --Melanie

Backyard Oasis
Imagine chilling under a big pecan tree strung with solar lanterns lighting up the evening, the sound of an artificial creek in the background, and a hot tub waiting to soak your worries away. Sounds good? We thought so too.
★ "I could live in the backyard, it is straight out of a magazine!" --Wendy

Game Room
Turn the competition up in our game room. It’s a garage turned into the ultimate hangout spot with an arcade cabinet with classic games, ping pong, arcade basketball hoop game, game table, 65-inch TV, and yes, it’s got AC for those hot Texas days (and heating for the chilly ones)!

Stay Connected to Work
Need to stay on top of work or homework? We’ve got you covered with speedy Wi-Fi and and two work spaces equipped with HDMI/USB-C monitors for remote work or study.
