A Peaceful Greenbelt Retreat in the Heart of Inspiration
Welcome to 1517 Vintage Lane, a lovingly maintained, one-owner home located in the heart of the Inspiration community in Wylie, Texas. This thoughtfully designed two-story home offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and 2,819 square feet of flexible living space, perfect for everyday functionality and special family moments. With no rear neighbors and a peaceful greenbelt view, this home offers privacy, tranquility, and access to some of the best amenities in Wylie ISD and the surrounding areas.
Nature, Privacy, and Functional Living
Step inside to discover continuous flooring throughout the main living areas, starting with a formal dining space currently used as a music room and playroom. The open kitchen features granite countertops, a large island, a gas range, a walk-in pantry, updated cabinet hardware, and a casual dining area. It flows seamlessly into the living room, which centers around a gas fireplace and is highlighted by soaring ceilings.
The primary suite is privately positioned at the back of the home with large windows overlooking the treed greenbelt. The ensuite bath includes dual sinks, a garden tub, a separate shower, and a walk-in closet with direct laundry access.
Upstairs, you’ll find a generous game room, three spacious secondary bedrooms (including one oversized room currently used as an office), and two additional full bathrooms.
From the seller: “When we bought our house, we were drawn to our backyard. It backs up to the Corps of Engineers property and will not have any houses built. This means open windows and a great view constantly! We were also drawn to the immensely high ceilings in the living room and master bedroom.”
