About 8808 Kenton Drive
Ideally positioned on a serene interior street in the heart of Lake Highlands and zoned to the highly coveted Merriman Park Elementary, this home showcases an unmatched floorplan perfect for entertaining! Upon entering, you are immediately drawn to several design choices that make this home stand out- hand scraped hardwood floors, soaring tray ceilings, a built-in wet bar and picture frame molding in the living room, chair rail molding in the dining room, and an exposed brick wall in the sunlit bonus room offering flexible space for a game table, reading nook, or grand piano. The kitchen provides ample storage space, granite countertops, stainless appliances and a built-in China cabinet in the attached breakfast room. The utility room flanks the kitchen with built-in cabinetry and abundant space for full-size laundry appliances. The generous primary suite boasts abundant natural light, hand scraped hardwood floors, separate vanities and a walk-in closet. The den is positioned at the rear of the home with a dramatic vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and a full bath. Two additional bedrooms are off their own hallway with a full bath. Surrounded by mature trees and lush landscaping, the backyard offers a peaceful and private retreat. All this, and located just minutes away from Lake Highlands Town Center, neighborhood parks and walking trails, White Rock Lake, Presbyterian Hospital and premier shopping at NorthPark Mall.
