Description

This home tells a story. Let it tell yours. Tucked into the streets of Sanger Heights, this enchanting 1893 Victorian has stood as a witness to the lives being lived inside, and around it, for over a century. Through careful preservation and a thoughtful eye for artistry, it has become something more than a house—it is a place where history and creativity coexist, charming details, antique touches, a garden that beckons and now, you have a chance to make it yours. From the moment you arrive, the home delights with architectural richness. An ornate gingerbread trim frames the façade, while the cedar shake roof and it’s porch speak to the craftsmanship of another era. The original stained-glass front door glows softly in the Texas light, welcoming you home. Original pine floors run through the living room, dining room, and bedrooms, their grain worn by generations past, producing audible creaks that speak comfort to the dwellers….a beautiful sonorous detail that truly deserves to be appreciated. Arched doorways frame the living spaces downstairs. The kitchen is full of character and Victorian accents that quietly coexist with appliances and creature comforts of today. A half bath and dining room can also be found downstairs. The generous living spaces offer plenty of room for gatherings, and a flexible bonus room is yours to turn into a studio, an office, a homeschool setting, playroom, etc. The seemingly wild landscape has been designed carefully, featuring native and drought-tolerant plants, fruit trees, and permaculture elements supported by drip irrigation. A haven for pollinators, which you can observe while sipping your coffee in the backyard gathering spaces. Brick walkways wind through the yard, connecting patios, and a firepit gathering space. A charming shed in the backyard is bursting with opportunity, it includes a water line & could easily be transformed into a guest house, artist studio, or future ADU. While two smaller sheds provide plenty of storage.
