About 1547 Sue Barnett Drive
Refined design, rich history, and modern comfort meet in this beautifully updated Garden Oaks bungalow. Ideally positioned for convenience to parks, dining, and commuter routes, it reflects the timeless architecture and scenic beauty of Garden Oaks' oak-shaded boulevards. Behind its inviting façade, the home blends historic character with contemporary appeal. The 2018 cocktail pool—with cascading waterfall, wraparound seating, pergola, and low-maintenance landscaping—anchors the outdoor living experience. Inside, the 2020 kitchen renovation features quartz surfaces, custom shelving, shiplap backsplash, deep soft-close drawers, and black stainless appliances. The spa-inspired primary suite offers a freestanding tub, oversized walk-in shower, and custom closet, while the 2022 family room addition adds a quartz-topped island, wet bar, and patio access. Recent updates include roof (2025), HVAC (2021), attic insulation (2023), water heater (2023), PEX plumbing, and gas line/meter (2025).
