Welcome to a one-of-a-kind creekside retreat in Orchard Hills Estates, perfectly situated on an incredible over half-acre cul-de-sac lot backing directly to scenic Duck Creek. Rarely found in Garland, this unique property is the only home in the community with direct access down to the creek, creating a backyard setting that feels more like a private nature getaway than a suburban home. Surrounded by towering mature trees and breathtaking creek views, the outdoor space is truly unforgettable. Relax in the private hammock retreat, entertain on the patio, watch hummingbirds and wildlife from the kitchen window, or take the custom slide down to the creek for added fun and adventure. The charming front-yard tree swing adds even more character and curb appeal. Inside, this move-in-ready 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home blends timeless charm with thoughtful updates throughout. Hardwood floors, spacious living areas, and abundant natural light create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Extensive improvements have been made to enhance both comfort and functionality, including new downstairs windows, a newly rebuilt back exterior wall with windows and door, resurfaced upstairs tub-shower, rebuilt gas and wood-burning brick fireplace with mantle, laundry room cabinetry, and new front doors. The kitchen features granite countertops, 36-inch cabinets, a double undermount sink, and picturesque backyard views that make everyday living feel peaceful and serene. Additional highlights include no HOA, roof replaced in 2016, and Garland ISD choice of schools. Conveniently located just minutes from Jon Comer Memorial Skate Park, Downtown Garland Square, and less than 20 minutes from Lake Ray Hubbard, this hidden retreat offers the perfect balance of privacy, nature, convenience, and adventure.
