Brick home with fireplace and lots of cabinets $86,000

Built in 1962 by Norman and W.T. Archer, well-known custom builders who
built some of the finest homes in Central and West Texas, this is a one-owner
home.

Located on a large lot with mature trees, this ranch-style brick exterior home
has 3 bedrooms, 2 fully tiled baths, a wood-paneled family room with brick
fireplace (complete with raised hearth and custom built antiqued brass
glass-enclosure), a living room, a long gallery hallway, and entry hall. There
is an abundance of well-designed built-in storage space throughout the home,
a wood-paneled kitchen with tile countertops and many convenient storage
areas. The open design of the kitchen and family room create a "keeping
room", reminiscent of homes built in the colonial area. An attractive
custom-crafted copper chimney cover is an added amenity to the home's
exterior.

Designed by Norman Archer for his own family, this home has been lovingly
cared for and meticulously maintained over the years. It has a generous two-
car, fully finished carport, which adds to the street appeal of the home.
Adjacent to the carport is a roomy separate storage room (with sink). The
large carport area has built-in cabinets for storage.

This home, designed with a builder's eye for detail and space efficiency, is
constructed with high quality building materials, inside and out. There is an
enormous amount of closet and storage space throughout the house, aged
mahogany paneled doors and cabinets, custom wood shutters, and central
heat/air conditioning.

One of the first homes built in this lovely neighborhood of ranch-style brick
homes, it is located conveniently near China Elementary and the Middle
School. Because it is set back from the street, there is a sense of privacy
and very little traffic noise.

Some of the hallmarks of the home's attractive landscaping are the
magnificent red oak tree in the front yard (a traffic-stopper when the leaves
turn crimson in the fall), the flowering crepe myrtles outside the kitchen
window, the ornamental plum tree viewed from the living room window, and
the xeriscape herb garden beside the front door. A cedar privacy fence (set
on concrete curbing for added durability) encloses the backyard.

Included in the price of the home are the custom draperies in the living room
and throughout the house. Also, the refrigerator, Maytag washer and dryer,
and built-in dishwasher in the kitchen. All these appliances are in excellent
condition.
