Located in the Dunbar historic district and one block from Dunbar park, 1029 W. Martin Luther King is a short bike ride to everything good San Marcos has to offer.
Several large pecan trees shade this 0.386 acre lot which includes a storage shed and a detached 416 sf. guest house. Attached to the house is a small efficiency unit currently used for income, but could be absorbed back into the house creating a third bedroom and a second full bath.
High ceilings and beautiful long leaf pine floors give this home a charm and character only found in homes of this era.
A-1 zoning allows for two separate units on this property adding value.
The property is in need of extensive renovations, but well worth the journey,
