Property Description
At 543 Hillcrest Drive, discover a home that embodies strength and serenity. This residence boasts three bedrooms and four bathrooms, each infused with natural light, creating an atmosphere of quiet comfort. The interiors mix the warmth of wood with the enduring charm of brick, inviting you into spaces that feel both grounded and open.
The front porch, with its rich wooden ceiling contrasting against the soft blue exterior, offers a welcoming entryway, setting the tone for a home that blends indoor comfort with outdoor allure. Inside, the dining room anchored by a sturdy brick fireplace calls for evenings filled with laughter and good company.
The heart of the home is the kitchen, where modern meets timeless. Light cabinets stand in clean contrast to rich brown granite countertops, providing both elegance and functionality. An island serves as the centerpiece, perfect for meal preparation or casual gatherings, while stainless steel appliances add a sleek, contemporary touch. This kitchen isn’t just a space to cook; it’s a space to create and connect.
Below, the bonus room extends beyond mere additional space; it's a multi-functional retreat featuring a kitchenette, workout equipment, a dedicated workspace, and a cozy sleeping nook thoughtfully converted from a sauna. The bonus room also includes a bathroom with a toilet, sink, and shower, making it a fully equipped space for work, wellness, and relaxation. Whether used as a quiet escape or a guest retreat, this room offers both comfort and convenience.
Outside, the expansive back porch is an ideal setting for entertainment or peaceful solitude, overlooking a lush backyard adorned with a variety of fruit trees guanabana, orange, banana, guava, and grapes each offering seasonal delights. The generous carport provides ample space for vehicles or doubles as a versatile workshop.
Adding to this home’s charm is a private dock with a boat lift, nestled on the tranquil waters of a bayou. This feature not only enhances the property's allure but invites adventures right from your backyard, promising serene days on the water and easy access to open seas.
And then, there’s the tree fort. Connected to the back porch, this whimsical yet practical space is air-conditioned, making it perfect for all seasons. Whether imagined as a small art studio or a fun gathering place for younger members of the family, the tree fort with its charming small balcony adds a unique touch of adventure and creativity to the property.
543 Hillcrest Drive isn’t just a place to live; it’s a place to thrive, offering a balanced blend of comfort, functionality, and the pure joy of waterfront living.
