Historic charm, modern efficiency, and room to host! This well-maintained brick American Foursquare offers over 2,681 sq ft on just over an acre in De Soto. A classic wrap-around porch sets the tone, with small-town living just 19 minutes from Jordan Creek Mall.
Inside, the original character shines. The main level has 10-ft ceilings, the original fireplace mantel, and entry pocket doors made from quarter sawn oak to match the home's original trim. The updated kitchen pairs that history with everyday comfort: heated tile floors, custom cabinets and trim, a movable island, double ovens, and a butler's door. A second kitchen in the lower level makes entertaining easy, and the dry basement has 9+ ft ceilings and plenty of room for storage, recreation, or a workshop.
This historic home comes with very moderate utility bills. An energy-efficient geothermal heat pump keeps budget billing at just $214/mo, and an RO system, water softener, and roofs only 10 years old add peace of mind. You'll also get not one but TWO 2½-car garages, with space for vehicles, tools, and hobbies.
Acreage, historic character, low utility costs, and the upkeep already done. Come see why this one has been so loved!
