Rockwall, US

Looking for something with character, land, and potential? This one-of-a-kind 1920s home sits on 1.8 fully usable acres and offers over 3,500 square feet of space, including 5 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and room to grow. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated over the years, major improvements include updated plumbing and electrical, foundation repair, a Class IV metal roof, AC updates, and more.
The property features over 20 producing fruit trees, a fenced garden area, a root cellar, a mostly tree-lined perimeter, and an in-ground tornado shelter, making it an ideal setup for homesteading or anyone craving a more self-sufficient lifestyle.
Upstairs is partially unfinished and ready for your vision. Plans have already been drawn to create a primary suite with two closets and two more bathrooms. This home is just a ten-minute walk to downtown Royse City, yet it offers the peaceful feel of a private retreat. This home blends history, charm, and modern updates in a way that’s hard to find. See transaction desk for survey, sellers disclosure, and a full list of recent improvements.
