About This Home
This darling cottage-style home is in walking distance to historic downtown Van Alstyne and the central social district which is adding new businesses everyday! The cozy and inviting front porch offers views of the character-filled Victorian and Craftsman style surrounding homes. This adorable one story was built in 2003, is move-in ready and beautifully updated! Luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout (no carpet!), Fresh paint inside and out, Granite counters and SS appliances in the well appointed kitchen. Painted cabinetry throughout, large laundry room with storage and updated lighting and ceiling fans. Relaxing and roomy primary bedroom suite features a walk in closet and an updated bathroom. Fully fenced backyard is perfect for entertaining with a covered wood deck, a brand new stone path and area for a table or fire pit & sitting area! Resin epoxy pool (only needs pool pump) and chicken coop (just needs door, trim and window to finish and seller will leave materials!) both convey.
Light and bright with plenty of windows AND a brand new AC unit that conveys a 5 year warranty AND includes twice a year service and maintenance for the next 2 years! Roof is 3 years old and recently checked out great! Sellers bought the home last year and love it, but need to move to the country because they have horses, they have loved this home and community. Inspection Report available.
Award Winning Van Alstyne ISD! HURRY; Great starter home or a wonderful downsize opportunity!
