1613 Amherst Drive, Plano, Texas, 75075

Just imagine single-story living with fresh neutral paint from this fall and no pesky popcorn ceilings, giving you a clean backdrop to make it your own. The updated kitchen and baths, with granite and durable wood-look tile, make busy mornings simple. When the holidays arrive, the kitchen opens to the dining room, breakfast nook and 18x18 living room, so whoever is cooking stays part of the gathering, and cozy evenings by the fireplace round out the season. Three bedrooms and two full baths include a primary bedroom with a walk-in closet and its own bath, while a sizeable 19x17 flex room would accommodate a fourth bedroom, home office or play room. From a permitted garage conversion finalized in 2008, it also holds the laundry area. Out back, the large lot of about 0.29 acres opens into a tree-shaded backyard with room to garden, host and spread out. A custom automatic gate brings the driveway inside the fence instead of walling it off from the yard, so the backyard and extended concrete flow together as one larger space, giving you more room for play, parties or projects once the cars pull out. Since there is no HOA, it’s all yours to enjoy as you like, while the 2-car carport and a storage shed keep vehicles and gear organized. Key updates include a 2023 plumbing reroute with PVC and city permits finalized, redone ductwork and added gutters. All told, the home offers about 2,390 square feet in Dallas North Estates. Zoned to Plano ISD’s Sigler Elementary, Wilson Middle, Vines High and Plano Senior High. Getting around the metro is one of the best parts. With easy access to US-75 and the President George Bush Turnpike, plus the DART Silver Line at Downtown Plano’s 12th Street Station and its rail link to UT Dallas and DFW Airport, you spend less time in the car and more time enjoying Richardson, Dallas and beyond. Come evening, you are within close proximity to Downtown Plano for dinner, coffee and the season’s upcoming festivities.
