LakewoodYes, yes, it’s been a minute since the Fourth of July, but we’d be remiss if we didn’t point out this Lakewood beauty with perfect views of the Lakewood Country Club — and its annual Independence Day fireworks display.

Sitting on a large treed lot at 6519 Gaston Avenue, the Colonial Revival is an easy walk to a lot of Lakewood amenities, including the country club.

Built in 1940, the four-bedroom, three-and-a-half bath home is airy and cheerful, with wood flooring throughout. An eat-in kitchen boasts Sub-Zero and Viking appliances, fan fish-scale tile backsplash, crisp white cabinetry, and an island with seating that provides extra spots when the dining room table might be a little full.

A great little mudroom with a coffee nook, stainless steel counters, and pantry storage leads to an outside patio with bistro lights, a grill, under counter fridge, and (almost a requirement in Texas) a mosquito misting system.

A master suite with a large en-suite has his-and-hers sinks, a soaker tub, and shower. Upstairs, generous bedrooms flank a Jack & Jill bathroom.

The detached two-car garage has an additional bonus room with a bathroom, which means you could have a workshop, office, or even additional guest quarters.

This 3,312 square foot home is priced at $879,00, and is listed by Travis Horton with Twigg Realty. To see more of the home, click here. To visit in person, head to the open house Sunday from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
