About This Home
Welcome to this beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath home nestled on nearly half an acre along one of Terrell's most desirable streets.

Step inside to a light-filled living and dining area for both comfort and entertaining, featuring elegant crown molding, recessed lighting, ornamental chandelier, and plantation shutters. The kitchen offers a bright and airy feel with white cabinetry, open shelving, light countertops, and wood-style flooring, all complemented by a functional peninsula, and adjoining dining space.
