This classic University Park Georgian style home was built and designed by John Cook for his family in 1961. It is set up with all bedrooms having their own study and bathroom and the quality of construction is second to none. This home shows the craftsmanship that was reminiscent of the past and just needs some tender loving updates to make it a showplace. The kitchen and baths need total remodeling along with updates on flooring and paint. It appears that most of the home has beautiful Red Oak select flooring.  You will be enthralled by the gorgeous fireplace in the formal living room with a marble hearth and a fretted oak mantle. There may also be two hidden fireplaces in the east & west bedrooms! Both have covered chimneys.   The den is adjacent to the formal living room and has a wall of sliding glass doors that lead to a large private courtyard. This home has crown molding throughout and beautiful beamed ceilings in the den. The large formal dining room has built-in China hutches, decorative seashell niches and beautiful crown molding.  There are 3 bedrooms downstairs and two large bedrooms upstairs. The formal entry is spacious and inviting and accented by the beautiful oak stair case. The home has a durable slate roof, circle drive in front and a 3 car rear entry garage with a large attic above the garage. It has wonderful mature trees that include pecan, live oak, crape myrtle, and Yaupon holly. The fencing is solid brick with wrought iron gates for privacy, security, and durability. You will love living in University Park with top rated schools and great neighbors.
