Nestled within the peaceful, tree-lined GATED Cedar Springs community of Helotes, this home blends timeless comfort with thoughtful, stylish upgrades at every turn. Mature trees and dusk-to-dawn "stagecoach-style" exterior lighting create a warm welcome, while inside, wood-look tile; 10-foot ceilings, crown molding, and wide 40-inch hallways set a tone of understated elegance. Arched windows pull natural light into the living spaces. 11 upgraded windows (installed 2023-2024) cascade your living space with natural light; softened by shades and blinds throughout. The kitchen serves as the inviting heart of the home, offering granite countertops, breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances including a gas range, built-in microwave, and farmhouse sink. An under-sink osmosis system (installed 2022) ensures crisp, clean water, while stylish lighting adds just the right touch of polish. The adjacent study, framed by double doors, provides a quiet, productive retreat. In the living room, a gas fireplace with a cedar mantle and ceramic log creates a cozy focal point, complemented by custom built-ins for storage and display. Tucked nearby is a cedar-plank-lined closet, part storage, part conversation piece - constructed with partial Faraday-cage protection. The primary suite is a retreat of its own. Exceptionally spacious and wrapped in fresh carpet, it offers room to unwind with ease (carpet installed in 2021) The large walk-in closet enhances everyday convenience, and the en-suite bath elevates the experience further with a double vanity, a separate shower, and a garden tub set against a chic mosaic-style tile wall - a custom design element that rises well above typical builder-grade finishes, bringing a boutique-spa feel into your private space. Additional bedrooms are generous as well. One features its own private entry to the guest bathroom with a granite countertop shower/tub combo, perfect for visitors. Another includes a built-in Murphy bed and shelving for flexible use. A large laundry room with built-in shelving keeps daily life organized, while the garage delivers function with a painted floor, attic access, garage door opener, and an installed water softener/filtration system. The backyard unfolds into a private outdoor haven surrounded by a wide-plank cedar fence with solar lighting for complete seclusion. A 19'x16' covered patio opens onto an expansive 30'x29' paver patio, perfect for gatherings, grilling, or quiet evenings outside. Two storage sheds (10'x8' and 6'x 5'), a 16'x10' greenhouse, and flagstone walkways down both sides of the home add charm and practicality. Recent improvements, just to name a few, solar attic vent added August 2025, a new roof in September 2025, a 2021 water heater, and 2021 bedroom carpet offer peace of mind and long-term value. This home isn't just beautifully maintained; it's thoughtfully crafted for comfort, privacy, and everyday luxury. Every space invites you to linger a little longer and imagine coming home.
