Property Description

Welcome to Prairie Crossing - one of the nation's most celebrated conservation communities - where this stunning Watts model at 860 Blazing Star Road delivers five bedrooms, three beautifully finished above-grade levels, and breathtaking unobstructed views of native prairie and the shimmering waters of Lake Leopold from your very own front door. Thoughtfully maintained and move-in ready, the home's timeless Prairie Crossing architecture radiates warmth and character throughout. Just off the kitchen, a beautifully appointed butler's pantry with a wet bar serves as both an entertainer's dream and the perfect dedicated coffee station. Step out onto the deluxe second-story porch and those sweeping prairie and lake views expand even further - stunning in every season. Two of the bedrooms open directly onto a private second-story balcony, offering a true bird's eye view of the neighborhood and the glistening waters of Lake Leopold - waking up here is something special every single morning. The finished third floor is a showstopper: rich hardwood floors, a full bathroom, and wall-to-wall natural light frame some of the most gorgeous lake views in all of Prairie Crossing - ideal as a recreation room, guest suite, or home office. Outside, the yard backs to protected greenspace and a park - a rare and peaceful setting that extends your living space into nature. Miles of walking and biking trails, organic farmland, and protected open space round out a lifestyle that is truly in a class of its own. This is more than a home - it's Prairie Crossing living at its absolute finest.

MY BLOGS

Vacant Land Scams are REAL

My Recent Experience with an Unauthorised Land Seller About 6 months ago, I received an email from (let's call him) Charlie. A "nothing out of the ordinary" email from a common (and mildly validating) charlie.....@hotmail stating: "I have owned the lot for many years, but a couple of years ago I moved from Illinois to California, and I would like to sell the lot. If you could please provide me with a market valuation, that would be great. We are looking to make a quick decision on this. Thank you, Charlie"

THE FRONT PORCH SWING

Oh, the memories. I remember my girls spending countless hours swinging front to back and side to side, hanging out with the neighborhood kids, splashing with the water hose, or crafting top-secret plans with their imaginations. It was awesome. How times have changed. With my two youngest girls slowly nearing college graduation and my older girls working hard in their careers, the days of simple life are taken over by group texts and long-distance daily check-ins. It's just not the same.

less is more, unless, it's for less.

Each day, I'd get my MLS home showing sheets ready, the electronic key card that opens lock-boxes, get dressed with minutes turning into seconds frantically starring at the time ticking away. All ready but just need to ...find ....one matching sock.
