Acreage, flexibility, and renovation potential come together on approximately 1.6 acres made up of two adjoining 0.8-acre lots. The two-story home sits on Lot 13, while Lot 12 features a detached one-car garage with an attached one-car carport. NEW ROOF to be installed first soon. The garage also offers approximately six additional feet of depth for workspace, storage, or a longer vehicle. The seller is willing to consider selling the lots together or individually, offering options for buyers and investors. The home offers 3 oversized bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a plumbed half bath ready for completion. Highlights include a downstairs primary suite with walk-in closet, two spacious upstairs bedrooms, a large upstairs bath, main-level laundry, fireplace, and Saltillo terracotta tile throughout the main level. Both upstairs bedrooms offer excellent storage, including dual closets in one and a large walk-in closet in the other. Mature trees provide privacy, shade, and character, with substantial outdoor space and no HOA. Bring your vision to renovate and personalize this distinctive property. Repairs are needed, and the asking price reflects the home's current condition. Located across from ongoing new-home development in Sandy Oaks Estates by First America Homes and M/I Homes, with convenient access to I-37, Loop 1604, Hwy 181, Braunig Lake, and Calaveras Lake. The seller will consider selling the lots individually or together (MLS #: 2003612 & MLS #: 2003601).
Waterwood, located between N Loop 1604 E and the Medina River, is a semi-rural and residential Sandy Oaks neighborhood with large-lot homes and a quiet, wooded feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the N Loop 1604 E & FM 1937 intersection, where roadside taquerias, feed-and-tack shops, and small service storefronts set a practical, country-leaning tone. Housing trends toward single-story ranch-style builds and newer custom homes with deep setbacks and long driveways. Tree cover and open sky shape the streetscape, with evening light and wide shoulders defining the pace. Daily routines orbit local parks and river corridors rather than a dense main street. The setting reads as edge-of-town Texas: space-forward, outdoors-oriented, and commuter-linked.
