    Escape to Your Private Country Retreat in the Heart of the RGV Discover a lifestyle of serenity and rustic charm in this one-of-a-kind property—a true private retreat that stands apart from anything else in the Rio Grande Valley. Forget the "cookie-cutter" experience; this meticulously reimagined Craftsman-style classic (renovated top-to-bottom in 2018) offers timeless character paired with modern peace of mind. The Main Residence: Timeless Charm & Modern Comfort Step into 2,011 sq. ft. of open-concept living designed for a slower pace of life. This 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath home features a private office (that could be converted to a 3rd bedroom), bonus living space, and a cozy enclosed covered patio—perfect for year-round relaxing and entertaining while soaking in the scenic quiet. Every major system was updated in 2018, including the roof, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and windows, making this a truly move-in-ready sanctuary. The Homestead Potential: Income & Versatility The lifestyle benefits extend far beyond the main house. A detached, climate-controlled 2.5-car garage with a half-bath offers a premier workshop or studio space. Behind it sits a charming ~400 sq. ft. guest house with a kitchenette and full bath—ideal for multi-generational living or a rental. Combined, these spaces offer over 1,000 sq. ft. of potential guest accommodations or passive income opportunities. Outdoor Living & Location The grounds feature native, low-water landscaping that thrives year after year, offering a park-like setting that redefines RGV living. Located in a peaceful, established neighborhood directly across from a meticulously maintained estate, you’ll enjoy total privacy with easy "Mid-Valley" access to McAllen, Padre Island, and more. • Move-in Ready: 2018 renovation included all major systems. • High & Dry: This property DID NOT FLOOD during the historic March 2025 rainfall. • Total Living Space: Currently 2,445 sq. ft. of elevated design. Experience the "Country Living" aesthetic with modern convenience. Call or text today to schedule your private tour of this Mid-Valley beauty.
