300 5th Street

Some homes you tour. This one you feel the moment you step through the teal front door. Built in 1925 and beautifully maintained, this 3,300 sq. ft. historic home sits on a big corner lot in Kerens, Texas, the Birthplace of Big Tex. Gorgeous oak floors, tall ceilings, French doors galore, and windows everywhere fill the whole house with natural light. Four bedrooms and three baths, a formal dining room and living room made for big family gatherings, and a separate breakfast area for the everyday ones. An enclosed sunroom for your quiet mornings, a laundry room, a large butler's pantry with its own staircase, and a food pantry, the kind of details you only find in a home built a hundred years ago. The corner lot (125x140) gives you plenty of room for parking, playing, and entertaining, plus a private patio made for long evenings outside. And then there's the original carriage house. Upstairs, two rooms with an incredible view from the porch, your office, your guest quarters, or an income-producing apartment. It's a whole second home in the backyard. Fifteen minutes from Cedar Creek Lake and Richland Chambers Lake, just off Hwy 31.
