Welcome to the Treehouse

When you approach this lovely Nolanville home you are immediately struck by the gorgeous 600-year-old tree in the front courtyard.
Ramil and Josephine Sabado say the tree and the courtyard surrounding it are their favorite features of the home — despite the fact that the tree makes some creepy sounds when it storms or the wind blows. “We call it the incredible hulk because of how huge it is and the noises it makes,” Josephine said.
Flintrock Homes built the 3,227-square-foot home. CEO Chris Doose said that a tree this special deserved to be saved. “Just to think that this tree was here before Christopher Columbus landed in the new world makes this home a one of a kind that we will always remember,” he said.
The Sabados worked with Realtor Ryan Kurpess of The Real Estate Home Team to purchase this custom-made home from Flintrock Builders of Belton in 2021. The project was named best craftsmanship and curb appeal in the 2021 Parade of Homes.
The Treehouse is a spacious open concept with three bedrooms, three baths, vaulted ceilings and porcelain floors throughout. Floor-to-ceiling windows give you a courtyard view from anywhere in the main living area. A light and airy entryway is another key focal point and a great way to display art pieces and paintings. The kitchen is accented by quartz countertops and eye-catching wood beams overhead.
