Set beneath a canopy of mature native oaks in one of Georgetown’s most established, tree-filled neighborhoods, 501 River Down Rd offers the kind of setting where everyday life feels peaceful, connected, and easy. A welcoming, wrap-around front porch invites slow mornings, neighborly conversations, and relaxed evenings in the shade, while inside, the home’s spacious layout is designed for comfortable daily living and gathering. The open main living areas flow naturally together, anchored by a warm fireplace and framed by leafy views that bring a sense of calm indoors. The large kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, generous prep space, a breakfast nook for casual meals and connection, and recently updated appliances that support effortless everyday living. Upstairs, the private bedroom level feels nestled into the treetops with multiple walk-in closets and thoughtful storage throughout, while a tucked-away downstairs bedroom provides flexibility for guests, work, or hobbies. Outdoors, the landscaped backyard is shaded and inviting, with native oaks, stonework, and a spacious patio - recently rebuilt with updated roofing and ceiling fans - is ready for outdoor dining, play, or quiet afternoons. Extensive recent improvements - including a new roof with solar attic fans (2024), new gutters, and upgraded attic insulation with added catwalk access - reflect the ongoing care and efficiency behind the scenes! Located just moments from the San Gabriel River, neighborhood park, community pool, shopping, dining, and I-35 access, the home blends natural beauty with everyday convenience in a well-maintained Georgetown community known for its charm and livability and notably low HOA fees!
