Welcome to this wonderfully charming 1930 Craftsman home in the highly sought-after McKinney Historic District. Just a scenic stroll, approximately three quarters of a mile, brings you to the vibrant downtown square. Situated on a large corner lot, this property is surrounded by gorgeous mature trees, charming flagstone pathways,… Read More and inviting outdoor spaces. Whether you enjoy gardening, relaxing on one of the two porches, or simply birdwatching for a spell, this home offers a peaceful and picturesque setting. Inside, you’ll find a true Craftsman bungalow with 9-foot ceilings and beautiful sight lines from the living room, anchored by the original gas fireplace, to the lush greenery visible from the kitchen. Much of the original hardwood flooring remains, complemented by classic details such as shiplap, wainscoting, wide baseboards, and crown molding. This is an authentic 1930s Craftsman, originally built alongside its twin on the same street and known as a “twin oriental craftsman.” It is not a kit home. Original features include transom windows at the front entry, preserved interior doors, two pocket sliding doors, glazed windows, and plantation shutters. Thoughtful updates include HVAC improvements, updated electrical outlets, a tankless water heater, and recent exterior painting and skirting. The primary bedroom offers two closets, one quite spacious, with flexibility to relocate the washer and dryer and convert the current laundry room into a half or full bath. The detached garage includes an attached storage room with potential to become guest quarters, a studio, or a creative workspace. A rare opportunity to own a true historic gem full of character, charm, and potential in one of McKinney’s most beloved neighborhoods. Come experience it for yourself. Read Less
