Imagine restoring one of Abilene's classic historic homes into the home you've always wanted.
This spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 2,146 square feet of living space on two platted city lots (Lots 7 & 8) totaling approximately 0.33 acres. Many of the most expensive improvements have already been completed, allowing the next owner to focus on customizing the interior to match their own style and taste.
Major Improvements Already Completed
? New roof
? Foundation repair and leveling
? Water service and PEX water supply upgrades

Rather than paying premium prices for someone else's remodel, this home gives you the opportunity to choose your own kitchen, flooring, paint colors, bathrooms, fixtures, and finishes while building equity along the way.
The property also features a large detached steel 3-car garage/workshop with electrical service and plumbing connections. The building provides exceptional storage and workspace and may offer future opportunities for additional living space while still maintaining garage parking, subject to buyer verification, permits, and city approval.
Located on two platted city lots with MF (Multi-Family) zoning, the property offers flexibility for future use while remaining an outstanding choice for someone seeking a unique historic residence.
Whether you complete the remaining renovations yourself or hire a contractor, you'll have the opportunity to create a truly one-of-a-kind home in one of Abilene's historic neighborhoods.

What the owner loves about this home
What I love most is the opportunity this home offers. Many of the biggest and most expensive improvements have already been completed, including a new roof, foundation repair and leveling, new siding, new windows, new fencing, and water service/PEX water supply upgrades. Instead of paying a premium for someone else's remodel, you can finish the interior exactly the way you want.
I also love that the home sits on two platted city lots (Lots 7 & 8) with MF zoning, something that's becoming harder to find. The detached steel 3-car garage/workshop is another favorite feature. It has electrical service and plumbing connections and offers outstanding space for vehicles, hobbies, storage, or projects. It may also provide future potential for a home office, guest suite, or studio apartment while still retaining garage space, subject to City approval.
Being located in Abilene's Historic Overlay District gives the property unique character, and according to the City, owners may qualify for historic preservation tax reductions for certain repairs and maintenance while helping preserve the neighborhood's historic charm. Buyers should verify eligibility and Historic Overlay requirements with the City.
The best part is that you can create a home that's truly your own by choosing your own kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, colors, and finishes while building equity along the way.
