This 2006 Home Doesn't Look Like a 2006 Home
You've probably noticed it while house hunting: homes built in the mid-2000s often still have the finishes they were born with. Not this one. 525 Golden Creek, in Round Rock's Sonoma subdivision, was built in 2006 but has been renovated top to bottom inside, and it shows the second you walk through the door.
This is a 2,800+ square foot home with 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, located near the Forest Ridge and Forest Creek area, close to the Brushy Creek greenbelt with easy access to walking trails.

Walking In
The front door hardware, the flooring, the paint, the millwork, the lighting — all updated. The formal dining room keeps the tall early-2000s windows that give the house its original charm, paired with modern light fixtures that bring the whole space current. The kitchen carries the same theme: granite countertops, an island, a built-in low-profile microwave, gas appliances, and a breakfast nook with bay-style windows overlooking the backyard.
The Backyard
Sized right, not too big to maintain and not too small to use, with a small trellis sitting area already built in and trees providing privacy from neighboring yards.
Downstairs
One bedroom sits on the main floor with its own attached bathroom, working well as a guest room. A laundry room off the garage and under-stair storage round out the main level.
Upstairs
The upstairs opens into a flexible bonus space finished with shiplap detailing, ceiling fan, and room for a TV setup — the kind of space that works as an office, a kids' play area, or a teen gaming setup depending on what your family needs.
The primary bedroom includes a bay window and a walk-in closet with its own window, an upgrade you don't see in most homes at this price point. The primary bathroom has been fully updated with a double vanity, a redone shower and tub, and an angled tile pattern that stands out from a standard install.
Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill-style bathroom layout, both with good closet space and natural light, and a second full bathroom on this floor matches the same countertop finish used in the primary bath — a small detail that shows the renovation was done consistently, not room by room.
Schools
This home is zoned to Round Rock ISD and feeds into Blackland Prairie Elementary, consistently ranked among the top one or two elementary schools in the district.
The Bottom Line
2,800+ square feet, 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and a full interior renovation on a home built in 2006 — near the Brushy Creek greenbelt and zoned to one of Round Rock's top-rated elementary schools. Homes with this level of updating at this age don't come around often.
