Beautiful Historic home in highly rated Van Alstyne ISD. This home has been a part of Van Alstyne's history for over 90 years. Tax rolls say 1930 but historic ledgers show mid 1890's. This five bedroom home is gorgeous inside and out. Tall ceilings, clawfoot bathtub, bead board, wood floors and tin ceilings and wood pocket doors showcase the uniqueness of the Victorian homes built long ago yet the granite counters, new downstairs windows and updated bathrooms make this home even more desirable. This home sits on a very large lot with a shaded backyard and swimming pool. There is also a large fenced in side yard with plenty of room for pets or a space for family gatherings.
