Property Description

Step into timeless character and craftsmanship in this custom-built 1923 cottage that beautifully blends historic charm with thoughtful updates. From the moment you arrive, the arched entry, classic lines, and inviting front porch set the tone for what awaits inside. Rich, original hardwood floors flow throughout the home, complemented by detailed moldings and period-style doors that showcase the integrity of its era. The spacious living room centers around a striking gas fireplace framed by built-ins, creating a warm and welcoming gathering space. French doors open to a versatile second living area filled with natural light—ideal for a music room, home office, or additional lounge, or for creating a third bedroom space. The kitchen has been tastefully restored with quartz countertops, updated cabinetry, and new appliances while maintaining its vintage appeal. A generously sized dining room provides the perfect setting for entertaining, and a separate utility room adds everyday convenience. Both bedrooms offer comfortable proportions and classic trim work, while the bath reflects the home's original character with clean, timeless finishes. The plumbing system has been updated. Outdoors, the backyard offers a charming retreat enclosed by a combination of low rock fencing and wood privacy fencing. The detached single-car garage includes an attached workshop with electricity—perfect for projects, storage, or creative space. Ring floodlight security cameras attached to the property will remain for new buyers. Just off I-30, this home is centrally located, close to Texas Wesleyan University, downtown, Bass Hall, Dickies Arena, and the Stockyards. Ride your bicycle to Trinity Trails, or take a short drive to the Arlington entertainment district. This one-of-a-kind cottage delivers architectural detail, functional living space, and enduring style in a home that simply cannot be replicated.
