Extensively Updated One-Story Ranch Retreat on 1.4 Acres in the Heart of Old Katy
In the heart of Old Katy, where large lots are increasingly rare, and convenience is hard to beat, 6211 S Woods Lane offers something truly special: 1.4 manicured acres, an extensively updated one-story ranch home, a private pool and spa, and a massive detached garage/workshop designed for real-life flexibility.
This is the kind of property that gives you room to breathe without giving up the location buyers love. You are minutes from Katy High School, I-10, Katy Mills, Typhoon Texas, Historic Old Katy, restaurants, shopping, and everyday essentials, yet the moment you pull onto the property, it feels private, established, and tucked away.
Inside, warm wood floors, custom millwork, a renovated kitchen, a fully renovated primary bathroom, two dedicated home offices, a custom game room, and generous storage create a home that feels both timeless and incredibly livable.
Outside, the lifestyle expands across the resort-style backyard, covered patios, a buildable side yard with its own gated street entrance, and a 44’ x 39’ detached garage/workshop built for cars, boats, RVs, hobbies, storage, and everything that usually does not fit in a standard garage.
