A Rare Gem in Ridgewood Park

This Nature Lover’s Retreat on Nearly ½ Acre is nestled in the desirable Ridgewood Park neighborhood of Garland, this spacious 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to live in a peaceful, park-like setting—right in the heart of the city.

Set on an exceptionally large lot—nearly half an acre—this property is a true urban sanctuary. Mature shade trees, a picturesque body of water with a charming footbridge nearby, and lush green space create the feeling of a private retreat. Whether you&#39're sipping coffee on the covered front porch, dining al fresco on the expansive back patio, or planning your dream pool or garden, there&#39's space to relax, entertain, and grow.

Inside, the home welcomes you with natural travertine and wood flooring, abundant windows that fill the rooms with soft daylight, and a layout designed for both gathering and retreat. The eat-in kitchen features a cozy bay window with tranquil views—perfect for enjoying breakfast with a side of nature. Stainless steel appliances and a seamless flow into the main living room—with a fireplace as the centerpiece—make this space ideal for connection and comfort.

With three living areas, two dining spaces, and four generously sized bedrooms, there’s room for everyone. A portion of the garage has been converted into an additional living area that could easily transform into a private guest suite, mother-in-law quarters, or income-producing rental unit.

This home presents the perfect canvas for those with vision. Move in and enjoy the charm as-is—or bring your creative touch to elevate its character and style. Either way, you’ll be investing in a rare piece of land and lifestyle that’s hard to find within city limits.

The home is very warm and inviting. Virtually color changed photos have been added to show options.
