White-washed salt box has updated kitchen
2-bedroom home situated on corner lot.
White washed brick enhances the charm of this 1861 salt box located near the heart of Farmersville.
Listed for $69,900 by RE/ MAX Solutions Plus, the two-story house at 127 S. Broadway St. has about 1,100 square feet of living space. The house is on a corner lot with a deep back yard surrounded by a chain-link fence. There is also a storage shed on the property, and the house is within a block of village’s downtown district.
Formal entry is at the side of the house and opens directly into the front living room. Vinyl windows, except two, are throughout the home and provide plenty of natural light. Hardwood floors fill both the living room and the dining room. A freestanding stove is in the living room while an updated split heat/air wall unit is in the dining room. The dining room has a built-in bookcase or china nook.
Off the dining room is the full bathroom with a pedestal sink and a step-in fiberglass shower. Gray woodgrain flooring fills the bathroom and the kitchen.
In addition to the updated flooring, the kitchen has white cabinetry and dark countertops. A double stainless-steel sink is below a window. The kitchen has a freestanding stove heater. An extension off the kitchen is a mudroom, which has the laundry hook-ups, water heater, storage and a rear door that opens out to the fenced back yard.
Between the dining room and the living room is the stairwell to the upstairs. The wood stairs end at a loft-like bedroom with railing accenting the stairwell and windows providing natural light.
Hardwood flooring fills this room and continues into the more private bedroom as a door closes off the two bedroom spaces. The larger private room has a double-door closet. Wrought-iron heat vents are built into the floor and painted wood planks create a textured ceiling.
