Man-O-Man. This Bosque County historical charm has truly weathered the winds of time. This plantation style classic with over 3,400 sq/ft/of heated and cooled area was built in 1883 and is situated on 66+/- gorgeous acres on the Bosque/Coryell County lines. If only walls could talk, wow. There's just too much to talk about, but let's start by describing the tastefully done updating demands of the modern culture that left intact the historical importance and charm of the historical house. The kitchen is a masterful work of art with its thick, rich granite counter-tops, huge center island and upgraded stainless appliances. The formal dining is large enough to accommodate festive, holiday gatherings. The first floor owner's bedroom is isolated and features an enormous Austin-stone wood burning fireplace in one corner. Details like the hammered design copper basins and granite tops in the first floor owner's bathroom simply signify the though process this owner used in the restoration of this rare find. From the time you enter the front door and relish the original stair case, you know you have stepped back into another era when times were tough but so were the people. The 1st floor living area feature plank wood floors, walls and wood inland ceilings. A huge fireplace with metal insert adorns one wall. The first floor quest room allows for direct access to the hall bath sporting a claw and ball footed tub. So cool. The 2nd floor living is massive as well and is adjacent to the 2nd floor private bedroom suite and large, modern bathroom with all the same whistles and bells. The 2nd floor minor bedroom is massive and can easily function as a study with the built in desk and shelving. Outside there is an oversized detached garage with 1,064 sq.ft. of building area. Above the garage is a 600 sq.ft. game/party room that's great for those Wednesday night poker games. Lastly, there's a very large wood framed workshop/barn/horse stall facility that would make any rancher drool. Oh, and the land is the hard to find60 something acres everyone is looking for that offers great pasture grass, scattered Live Oak Motts and one stock pond. Only minutes to Waco and a short, scenic drive from the DFW metroplex and the State Capital in Austin. We want this to move out of inventory quickly at a fantastic price!
