This delightful 1950s home has been updated with a funky farmhouse vibe for an inviting space - vastly different from all the bland, homogenous, new construction invading Bastrop. Rich wood floors, countertops and shelving add warmth to the white painted cabinets and walls, a perfect backdrop for your art or collectables. Lofts have been built in two spaces for cozy sleeping or play areas while freeing up floor space. Way more storage than you would expect, both inside the house and in the storage area off the carport, where the main house laundry room resides. With a 3/1 main house of about 1300 sq ft and a 1/1 guest house of 820 sq ft, there is room for your mother-in-law (in her own space, thank goodness), your boomerang kid (ditto), or you can rent the guest house and have someone help pay the mortgage. (Guest house is currently rented for $1200/mo on a month-to-month lease.) Enjoy sitting on the back porch for privacy with your morning coffee, and the front porch in the evening to unwind with your favorite cocktail while waving to friendly neighbors – or since the home home is on the parade route, watch the parades and city fireworks from the front porch! The peaceful flower garden has already been started for you, there are fig, pear, peach, pomegranate, persimmon, and pecan trees to feed you, and there is even a home for your chickens or bunnies. Only 5 blocks from downtown Bastrop and its array of shops and restaurants, and just a tad further to Fisherman’s Park along the Colorado River. With a park across the street, 30 second access to 71 for easy commuting, and a 2 minute drive to the grocery store this is the one-of-a-kind home in the ideal location that you’ve been waiting for.
