3209 Rustic River Cove

Description

Tucked inside River Oaks, one of Westlake’s most beloved gated communities, this is the kind of home that feels increasingly hard to find. Here, neighbors know neighbors, evening walks with the dog are part of daily life, and Halloween still brings children into the streets and the entire community to life. With almost 7,000 sqft, 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, this gracious traditional home offers an exceptional amount of space without sacrificing warmth. White oak floors, shutter-framed windows, generous room proportions and timeless architectural details create interiors that feel established, comfortable and inviting. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with its own private office, beautifully remodeled bath and separate his-and-hers walk-in closets. Secondary bedrooms are notably generous, providing plenty of room for family and guests. One of the home’s greatest assets is its massive finished lower level, which dramatically expands the way the house can live. With a movie theater, abundant gathering space and room for an easy kitchenette conversion, it could become an ideal private guest suite for extended stays, a game room, gym, or a combination of all three. Outside, multiple decks overlook a large swimming pool and a private greenbelt, creating a remarkably peaceful backdrop. Mature landscaping, stone pathways and numerous outdoor living areas make the property equally suited to quiet mornings, family afternoons by the pool and evenings entertaining friends. The home has also been thoughtfully cared for and improved over time, including a new roof in 2021, updated kitchen appliances, replacement of all HVAC systems, new pool equipment, rebuilt decks, interior painting and lighting updates, and a remodeled primary shower. Spacious, private and wonderfully livable, this home offers something increasingly rare in Westlake: a substantial traditional home surrounded by greenery, within a gated neighborhood that still feels like a true community.
