About this home
This property offers a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a well maintained four-bedroom, single-story home with a potential to run a business from home. Situated outside city limits in unincorporated Tarrant County, there is no HOA or city restrictions. Although zoned residential, this home has been used as a small church since 2006 and currently holds a religious exemption on the county tax records. It's still being used for a church gathering on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings, so please schedule showings at other days & times. The home features expanded parking for up to 11 vehicles, making it ideal for business use or gatherings. The dedicated office space includes a private entrance and exit, an accessible half-bath, and a bonus room that can serve as storage or additional workspace. The spacious lot provides room to build a commercial-grade workshop or customize the layout to suit your needs. While the home could benefit from cosmetic updates to flooring and countertops, it is priced accordingly and represents strong value for the space and flexibility it offers. This is a unique opportunity to create a personalized live-work environment with room to grow.
