One-story living meets effortless functionality in this 2018-built home at 273 Cypress Forest Dr in Kyle's sought-after Cypress Forest neighborhood. The open floor plan connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas into one continuous entertaining space, anchored by a stone fireplace and abundant natural light throughout. Secondary bedrooms are tucked away from the main living area, giving the primary suite and shared spaces room to breathe: a layout buyers are actively searching for in this Hays County market. Set on a 0.181-acre lot, the backyard is private and tree-lined, with stone accents and a storage shed adding function without sacrificing green space. The screened-in back porch is built for year-round use: covered, shaded from the afternoon sun, and enclosed against bugs, it is ready for grilling, television, or simply relaxing outside without the usual Texas heat and insects getting in the way. Custom cabinetry extends beyond the kitchen into the bedrooms, primary closet, and laundry room, adding built-in storage well beyond what is typical at this price point. The primary suite includes this custom closet system, and the kitchen includes an island, generous counter space, and a layout built for daily living and entertaining alike. At 2,000 square feet, this single-story plan keeps everyday living simple, with no stairs to manage and no wasted space to maintain. Cypress Forest is a Hays CISD community near N Old Stagecoach Rd and W Center St, with easy access to I-35 for commuters heading into Austin or San Antonio. Residents enjoy a neighborhood playground, community pool, covered pavilion, and a stocked fishing pond, all set among the wide, tree-lined streets that give Cypress Forest its quiet, established feel. Local dining options, including Via 313 Pizza and Shugabees Texas BBQ, sit just minutes away. This is single-story, low-maintenance living in one of Kyle's most requested addresses.
