Friday Five Hundred: Live By The Lake in This Highland Village Dream House

You know what’s great about Highland Village? It’s not the fact that it’s the safest community in North Texas, or that it’s perennially at the top of “best places to live” lists. What’s great about Highland Village is that it’s like having a home and a vacation home all in one.

This house in particular — 2811 Timber Crest — is not only great because it’s in Highland Village but because it’s also priced exceptionally well at $545,000. It’s marketed by exceptional Ebby agent Heidi Loewinsohn, who knows a thing or two about Highland Village.

This house, which is in the Highland Shores community, has five bedrooms, five bathrooms and a two-bed, two-and-a-half bath guest house. The interiors are kind of blah, with lots of builder-grade finishes. Maybe that was intentional as to not detract from the views outside.

Of course, I fell in love with the hot tub on the deck. It screams “vacation home!” doesn’t it? And who doesn’t love a home that functions as a getaway, too?

Also outstanding is the outdoor kitchen, which, honestly, I would love to cook in every day. There’s everything out there!
