Home for sale in Denton, DENTON county
Recently redecorated, this beautiful cottage home surrounds you in quiet nature, all while conveniently hidden in the heart of Denton TX (The US census Bureau recently reported that Denton was the 9th fastest growing city in America!). Situated on a huge 1 acre lot, pulling into your driveway makes you feel like you just drove into the countryside. And perhaps you did, as you are surrounded by over 30 texas post oaks, if you keep your eyes open (and the bird feeders full) you can view over 30 species of bird in the backyard! But don't be deceived, this cosy cottage has everything you could desire. The modern central heat and air system keeps you cool (or warm!) and comfortable. And don't forget a roaring fire in the beautiful stone fireplace for romantic evenings on a chilly night. The original hardwood floors have been exquisitely refinished, along with re-plastering and painting of all the interior, and new ceiling fans. The backyard is more like a huge playground, perfect for garden parties and barbecues, and also perfect for your best friend (1/2 of the 1 acre lot is fenced in to keep your dog companion safe). The master bedroom has two large and spacious Antique Armoires that were purchased specifically for the home (and will stay with the home), and they naturally compliment the wood siding, and the rustic feel of the house. The front lounge has four large East facing windows that allow a delicious view of the surrounding property and morning sunshine (also great for bird spotting!). The 2nd bedroom can either be a 2nd lounge, huge office/studio, Child's bedroom, or whatever you desire. The gorgeous dining area has 2 windows facing a lovely tree, then out to the small children's park next door. With the park and the huge lot, the house is always serene and quiet. So go ahead, light a few candles and stare out at the full texas moon as you unwind in the giant antique claw-foot bathtub. Nearby, the cosy kitchen is always delivering scrumptious smells, with a modern gas stove, large french door fridge, and modern dishwasher. Beyond the kitchen is the laundry area, with nice bare tiles and a place for the shoes from the back door. across from the laundry is a multipurpose room (with new carpet) that could be used as a study, playroom, or storage area. Open the back door, and the yard is yours to enjoy. the HUGE red garage (with automatic door opener) at the end of the drive keeps your car clean and safe, whilst the other half of the garage has a large work area for all your tools and workshop duties. You'll have plenty of room for gardening, so you need a place to keep all your garden tools! The garden has many many species of native plants, and the property still has the original Well that is always ready to pump water for your garden. The house was built sometime ago (in the 1940's I believe), and it was originally the first house on about 200 acres. So even though it has been modernized in many ways, it maintains it's incredible charm and grace anytime of the year. People LOVE and adore this house. I am constantly complemented by visitors and guests on the character and beauty of this home. It is always a favorite for get-togethers and back yard picnics. From the lush green spring, to the grey and misty fall/winter, the house is always a delight to behold. And now you actually have a chance to own it! When we purchased the home there was a line-up of people to by it. We were lucky enough to get in first (the same day it went on the market!). So don't let this chance slip you by! I will consider all reasonable offers. House will be shown by appointment only. Please email or call to request a viewing time, or for more information and pictures. thanks,and best wishes to you!
