About this property

You must see to believe this classic American bungalow, lovingly restored and updated, on Taylor's most esteemed street. Situated on a large .55 acre lot with 8 mature pecan trees and multiple garden areas, the west yard is perfect for a large vegetable garden. This beautiful bungalow features very large rooms, hardwood floors throughout, original doors and hardware, plus 11 pane French doors in the dining room. The kitchen cabinets were built onsite using quarter-sawn oak with glass fronts made from recycled wavy glass - absolutely stunning! The backsplash tiles are hand thrown with Arts & Crafts style deco tiles - giving the kitchen a classic mission style. Both bathrooms have been remodeled using hex tiles, keeping with the 1925 era. Electrical, HVAC and plumbing are all updated to modern standards, including an efficient tankless water heater. An oversized two car garage was built with workshop cabinets, recycled from the original kitchen and beadboard recycled from the rear entry. Garage has been wired for EV level 2 charging and a subpanel for power equipment. This home is exquisite - perfect for the most discriminating buyer who loves historical architecture and detail.
