Located in Richardson’s Duck Creek area, this updated single-story home has a floor plan that has been completely reworked from its original design. The former step-down living room was raised and leveled, and walls and arches between the kitchen, living and dining areas were removed to create one continuous level with an open, connected main living space. The remodeled kitchen sits at the center of the home with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, plenty of storage and a large island with plenty of room for seating. It opens directly to the dining and living areas, with a painted brick fireplace, beautiful wood mantel and distinctive arched windows adding character to the space. Laminate flooring continues throughout the home. The primary bedroom is exceptionally spacious, with plenty of room for a sitting area, desk or additional furniture.
