This is a great home for anyone but is particularly well-suited for a couple, or an individual artist, maker, or musician who values a separate conditioned work space. Pets welcomed on a case-by-case basis. It's a custom Dog-Trot home on a fenced 1/4 acre lot it has unique architectural details and spaces and a fenced back yard with a large shade tree on a quiet cul-de-sac street. The gorgeous, sun filled home with screen porch, separated living and dining areas and a detached 400sf workshop or second bedroom with a half-bath. Solar panels reduce energy costs and high ceilings with exposed trusses make it easy to stay cool in the hottest months. The front porch is deep and shady and spans the full 52' width of the house and provides plenty of space for chairs, plants and socializing in the shade. Main house consists of a 13x20 master bedroom with a large walk in closet and full Elfa closet system with hanging, drawers, and lots of storage. There's also a full bathroom with a generous, glass enclosed shower with hand spray and shower head (both!) and custom sea-foam green glass tile. There's a sunny window high on the bathroom wall for the best combination of light and privacy. The kitchen/living room side of the house has a 13x20 kitchen/living room with a 6x8 pantry that houses the refrigerator and stacked washer/dryer unit, there is also a wall of Elfa shelving for food, plates etc. The pantry space can be closed off with the custom sliding barn door. The kitchen cabinets were custom built from long-leaf pine salvaged from the old Shiner brewery building. This side of the house also has a 6'x10' office space with Elfa shelving and a desk/worktop, it's a great home office or homework space - it has a door to close it off from the living space and also has its own large window. Appliances include: gas range/oven with stainless steel finish. Stainless steel hood that vents to the exterior to remove cooking smells, stainless steel Bosch dishwasher (super-quiet), refrigerator/freezer, stacked/unitized washer/dryer with gas powered dryer, and a microwave with stainless steel finish. The house is fully conditioned with a Mitsubishi mini-split system for year round comfort. Between the kitchen/living and Bedroom areas is a 12x20 screen porch with a door on one side that goes to the expansive front porch and front yard, the opposite side of the screen porch has another screen door that goes to the back yard and detached workshop/office and half-bath. The ceiling of the screen porch is finished with reclaimed barn wood and has two light fixtures and a ceiling fan to keep the breeze going on the hot summer days. When I lived here I kept a dining table on the screen porch to host outdoor dinners with groups of friends. The living/kitchen and bedroom spaces have lots of overhead "attic" storage for boxes, luggage, etc. The back yard features a large gravel patio as well as plenty of grassy area for pets and gardening. There's a large, leafy shade tree in the back as well. The detached shop is fully air conditioned and heated. It has a large half bath with tiled floor. The shop has two glass doors to the exterior. The side door goes out onto a covered porch - you can't get enough shade in Texas! The front door faces the main house.
