About This Home

Set on a beautifully treed and private lot just outside of Waco, this 4 bedroom, 3 bath home offers the kind of space, flexibility, and outdoor lifestyle that is getting harder to find. With 2,100 square feet, a functional layout, and nearly an acre to spread out, this property is designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Inside, you will find an open living and dining area anchored by rich hardwood floors and a layout that flows naturally from room to room. The kitchen offers generous counter space, granite surfaces, a gas range, and a large island that makes gathering easy. One of the standout features is the presence of two true primary suites, each with its own ensuite bath, dual vanities, walk-in shower, and large closet. Positioned on opposite sides of the home, this setup offers privacy that works perfectly for guests, extended family, or multi-generational living. Step outside and the property really comes to life. A long covered front porch and oversized screened-in back porch create multiple spaces to relax and enjoy the peaceful setting. The yard is shaded by mature trees and includes an above-ground pool, fire pit area, and a tucked-away wooded section with a walking path and a setting that feels like your own private retreat. For those needing space for equipment or hobbies, the property includes covered parking, an RV hookup, and a detached shop or garage with additional power. There is even a storm shelter and whole-home generator for added peace of mind. Surrounded by wide open land and scenic views, yet still just a short drive to Waco, this property offers the best of both worlds. Whether you are looking for space to breathe, room to grow, or a place to truly unwind, this one checks all the boxes.
