Farmersville, Texas, may sound like the name of a fictional town in a movie, but it’s an actual place in Collin County, about 45 miles from the heart of Dallas.
It’s close enough to Wylie and Rockwall if getting your milk from the grocery store rather than the cow is your thing.
It’s also got some pretty amazing homes with great prices on sprawling acreage. There is land, people. Your kids can run around in the backyard and have large pets. They can probably even play in the street in some neighborhoods without consequence, but you didn’t hear that from me.
Check out this four-bedroom, two-and-one-half bathroom abode on Waterford Street for just $220,000.
The first thing I want to say about this house, before we even get into how beautifully updated it is or the fact that it’s in Rockwall or the fact that it’s a single-story, three-bedroom, two-bathroom, 1,926-square-foot home, is the fact that the elementary school is called Nebbie Williams.
This week we’re headed to Fairview because why not? It’s a town. It’s kid-friendly and it’s popping. Today’s listing is a townhome. That’s right a townhome in a quaint little suburb. And guess what else? There’s shopping, entertainment, and dining very nearby. Like, it’s not walkable, but it’s close and that’s good enough for us.
Over on Cherrywood Ave., there’s a three-bedroom, two-bathroom traditional that just hit the market. It’s near UT Southwestern and Parkland so it’s perfect if you’re a med student, nurse, doctor, resident, orderly, or just accident-prone.
The cute little cottage at 10430 Sylvia Drive has a lot going for it including the location. It’s a bit east-ier than you’re thinking, but it’s still close to White Rock, all the trees and the best root beer you’ll ever wrap your lips around at the Dairyette. Plus Casa Linda Bakery, Highland Park Cafeteria, and so much more.
Today’s word is “potential.” As in this townhome off of Interstate 635 and Abrams has so much potential. First of all, it’s a townhome, but it doesn’t have any shared walls. That’s one in the win column.
