10K concession w purchase! Step back in time and experience the charm and history of this beautifully preserved 1920s farmhouse, nestled on 2.9 level, fenced acres in the heart of Tehuacana, Texas. This unique 4-bedroom, 1-bath home exudes character and potential, with the existing plumbing layout making it easy to convert the current bathroom into two full baths. Perfectly suited for those dreaming of a quiet country retreat or an equestrian setup, the land is flat and ideal for horses, gardening, or simply enjoying wide-open space. Inside, the home boasts large bedrooms, walk-in closets, two cozy wood-burning fireplaces, and original wood floors under the carpet—just waiting to be restored. Shiplap walls hidden behind the drywall offer the opportunity to embrace the home's original farmhouse appeal. You’ll love the historic charm of the leaded glass windows and the peaceful views from both the spacious front and back covered porches, giving you a full-circle connection to the surrounding land. The property includes a detached two-vehicle carport that could easily be enclosed to create a full garage. Tucked away on a shared driveway with just one neighbor, the location provides privacy and quiet, far removed from city noise. As an added bonus, all furnishings and personal property currently inside the home can convey with an acceptable offer—making this an incredible opportunity for buyers seeking a turn-key country escape or weekend getaway. Located just over an hour from Dallas and only 15 minutes from I-45, Tehuacana is a hidden gem with a rich legacy. Once home to Trinity University and founded in the mid-1800s, the town carries a deep historical significance and small-town charm. With its welcoming community and beautiful countryside, Tehuacana offers the best of rural living without sacrificing accessibility. Whether you're looking for a peaceful homestead, a unique restoration project, or a weekend escape, this property is the one you've been waiting for.
