The best of both worlds. Country charm with city conveniences. This 1923 vintage homestead is a vibrant feel good experience day in and day out. Completely updated and move in ready. If you value outdoor living spaces this is the home for you. This 1/2 acre corner lot is fenced in three sections. The curb appeal starts with over 200 feet of white picket fence for charm and that open feel reminiscent of a Norman Rockwell ‘50’s neighborhood with an inviting front porch, a porch swing and rocking chairs of course. But if you want a more private feel, the middle yard is enclosed with 6 foot privacy fencing for an intimate place for family and friends to gather on the porch with an old iron fireplace, wood deck with an area for grilling and outdoor dining. Outdoor lighting adds to the ambiance. Then the back yard is also enclosed by a new 6 foot privacy fence for additional family entertainment, firepit for fun campfires, and an area to raise chickens with a chicken coop that was designed to match the house. In addition there are several raised beds for vegetable gardening that blend into the area artistically. There are 2 greenhouses for more gardening as well. One greenhouse with stained glass windows is more comparable to a dollhouse or “She Shed�. Inside, this 1923 home has been beautifully cared for and recently updated throughout. There are 2 bedrooms downstairs each with their own full bathroom which have been fully updated. One bedroom, a sitting area and a huge attic (which could be converted and is plumbed for another bathroom) is upstairs. There is also a 1/2 bath downstairs and laundry room all remodeled. The remodeled kitchen is open to the dining room with an island dividing the rooms and the dining has a large case opening to the living room for an open feel. All but 4 of the 18 windows in the original structure have been replaced with double pane highly insulated windows for energy savings and insulation added in the attic. The house is strong with thick walls and multiple layers of wood siding built to last. In addition, a 300 sf room was added in the back of the house in 2021. The pier and beam foundation was leveled and updated in 2019 along with plumbing and electrical updates as well. The huge mature native pecans trees, cypress and other trees canopy the property in lush greenery in spring and summer and vibrant color in fall. And the crape myrtle trees add a splash of color all summer. Own a piece of history and enjoy all the peace this place has to offer.
