THE HOME, IN THE LISTING AGENT’S WORDS
A closer look.
What if you could skip the builder upgrade list — because it's already done? Welcome to 1336 Academy Oaks Dr, a meticulously upgraded home in San Marcos's sought-after La Cima community that goes far beyond the standard build. While most new construction means writing checks for upgrades after closing, this one arrives decked out. Soaring 11-12 ft ceilings and 8 ft doors set the tone throughout. The living room features a walnut accent wall, gas fireplace with rustic hearth, a huge 3-panel sliding door for effortless indoor-outdoor flow, and pre-wiring for 5.1 wireless surround sound. The kitchen is a true upgrade showcase: galaxy quartz counters, a wine fridge, pot filler, champagne bronze/gold hardware, farmhouse apron sink, vented hood, and a massive island with seating for four or more. The primary suite is its own retreat — dynamic ceiling, TV-ready wall, and a spa bath with a soaking tub, dual vanities, and a walk-in shower with hex tile and dual showerheads. The walk-in closet is enormous. Three more bedrooms (including a guest suite) each offer walk-in closets and en-suite or connected baths — genuinely rare flexibility for a home this size. Beyond the interior, the upgrades keep going: whole-house backup generator, full irrigation, epoxied garage floors with a water softener and Wi-Fi-enabled door, attic storage decking over the garage, and a backyard built for entertaining with a mounted TV, large fan, and greenbelt-backed wrought iron fencing. The playscape can convey. And the bills? Refreshingly low — this home is EnergyStar rated, pairing high-end finishes with real efficiency. Set in La Cima with its trails, parks, and resort-style amenity center, and just minutes from downtown San Marcos with easy access to Austin and San Antonio — this is a home where the work is already done, and the savings (on rate and on energy) are already built in.
