A 33 foot long carport provides plenty of covered parking. Bonus storage unit has plenty of space to hold lawn mower, tools and gardening supplies. If you’ve been looking for a home with personality, outdoor living space, walkability, and the kind of charm they just don’t build anymore, you've found it!
Charming, updated craftsman style home just steps away from the up-and-coming downtown Van Alstyne. Enjoy your morning coffee on your choice of screened in side porch or expansive front porch. Original refurbished hardwood floors, updated bathrooms, granite countertops, ss appliances, farmhouse sink, leaded glass French doors, heated bathroom floors, and cedar planked ceiling are just a few of the charming features that make this turn of the century home a must see.
