About this home

Some homes simply make you slow down. This classic American Victorian feels like a step back into simpler times where the front porch was the heart of the home and there was always time for a glass of iced tea and a good conversation. Nestled on a 1.0 acre treed lot at the end of a dead-end street and adjacent to Corp of Engineer land, this property offers a natural country setting with fabulous views. This charming home was the builder's personal home, and it features a beautiful wraparound porch, tall windows, multiple gables and dormers, hardwood floors and the distinctive character that makes it truly special. The existing living space offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious family room, kitchen, and formal dining area. It is an inviting layout with an abundance of character. A major highlight is the approximately 1,100-square-foot unfinished second story, offering an opportunity to expand the home to approximately 2,600 square feet of living space. Plumbing has been stubbed out and the additional space could be designed to accommodate 2 or 3 bedrooms, a game room, or other flexible living areas. There is a small creek that runs seasonally across the front, An 18' x 15' concrete pad for workshop has been poured.  The views and trees are wonderful. Fishing and boating at Lake Lavon is just minutes away. This property has so much potential! it's so nostalgic and inviting—a home that doesn’t just welcome you in, but makes you want to stay awhile.
