Affordable Townhome

Remember when we were young and fun? And had energy and plans? Like “What are you doing tonight?” “Oh, I got plans.” And it didn’t include a 30-minute pep talk to get off the couch and do the dishes? Those were the days, people. And if you are in the thick of those days, don’t waste your time living somewhere untrendy. Get in on the action, find yourself a low-maintenance living spot such as an affordable townhome, and get on with it.

If You Want to Feel Young, This is The Place to Be

Sure, you could rent. Or, hear me out, you could start building that generational wealth by purchasing a home. Seems overwhelming? NO SIR. Not when there’s a little cutie like this on the market. It’s under $500,000, very low maintenance with the perfect little yard, so close to downtown Dallas it’s silly which also makes it close to Deep Ellum, Lower Greenville, and all the other places you people that can hit more than one bar a night tend to gather.

I had clients once who told me they couldn’t meet one night because the husband had a haircut. That’s my future — an evening haircut is a full dance card. Don’t get there too soon. Save yourselves. Live it up while you still have the desire AND the discretionary income.

Now, about this one. It’s a townhome with a very low HOA. It’s just outside of Bryan Place. It’s currently owned by fun-stage-of-lifers and they have loved every minute of it.

“We love that we are in the middle of everything. We’re right next to downtown, Uptown, Knox Henderson, and Lower Greenville! All within 5 minutes!”

They also have a Golden Retriever named Samson and guess what? He’s loved it, too. His list of loves includes sunbathing in the backyard, trips to Exall Park, and looking adorable and approachable at the same time.

What I love about this townhome are the stained concrete floors, unique hardwood floors, an oversized primary suite with an extra large walk-in closet, and in the ensuite bathroom there’s a bathtub hiding behind that mini-wall in the shower stall.

Make This Affordable Townhome Your Own

There’s also a flex area on the third floor that can be used as an office, workout area, storage, or — and this was the idea of Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty’s Kimberli Hildreth Bailey — what if you made it a pet townhome WITHIN the townhome. Like, what if Samson had bunk beds?

I’m just saying, that flex space — and this whole house really — can be whatever you want it to be. The owners have created a space where any décor would work. All the paint colors, tile, cabinetry, and even the fixtures are design agnostic.

Bring your transitional, minimal, maximal, whatever, it all works because this space is like a little chameleon, just waiting to see what you bring to the party.

Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty’s Kimberli Hildreth Bailey has 3836 San Jacinto Street listed for $499,999.
