"One of the best views in Grayson County. " This well-maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home has a lot to offer. The spacious eat-in kitchen features abundant cabinet space and a pantry. The newly updated bathroom includes a shower with dual showerheads and faucets, artisan walls with custom-finished shiplap, and a generous vanity with a basin-style sink. Both bedrooms are of similar generous size and offer beautiful views. The living room, which has a large picture window overlooking Briar Patch Mountain, and both bedrooms showcase stunning hardwood floors. The full-size basement is semi-finished and climate-controlled by a mini-split air system (newly installed in 2022). This lower level could serve as a great man cave, hobby space, or additional sleeping area. The laundry area is clean and spacious, providing extra storage space under the stairs. Outside, you'll find a flat to gently sloping yard surrounded by pastures. The highlight is the park-like area in the backyard, featuring boulders that resemble furniture around a fire pit. You can sit on an elm trunk fashioned like a bench, sip your coffee, and enjoy the soothing sounds of nature and the lovely views. It's an ideal spot for meditation or planning your day. The backyard is partially fenced (about 1/4 acre), allowing pets to enjoy the space, while the side yard includes a metal single-car garage for storage or vehicle use, along with a double carport. The front porch is surrounded by a small garden with rose bushes, creating the perfect spot to watch sunsets and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Additionally, there is a wooden ramp leading to the back door, making the home easily accessible for individuals with disabilities.
