Description
Historic Home on Two Platted Lots | MF Zoning | Detached 3-Car Workshop
$139,900
Situated on two platted city lots (Lots 7 & 8) totaling approximately 0.33 acres, this rare historic property offers MF (Multi-Family) zoning, a detached steel 3-car workshop with electrical service and plumbing connections, and over $40,000 in major documented improvements already completed.
Rare Abilene opportunity: historic 4BR/2BA home situated on two platted city lots, Lots 7 & 8, totaling approximately 0.33 acres with MF zoning. Property includes a detached steel 3-car garage/workshop with electrical and plumbing connections, plus major improvements already completed including roof replacement, foundation repair, water supply/PEX plumbing upgrades, new windows, and fencing.
This 4-bedroom, 2-bath home features approximately 2,146 square feet of living space situated on a large 14,000 square foot property. Significant capital improvements have already been completed, allowing the next owner to focus on renovation and customization rather than major infrastructure expenses.

Complete roof replacement
Foundation repair and leveling
New PEX plumbing supply to house
New windows
New fencing
One of the property's standout features is the detached steel 3-car garage/workshop, complete with electrical service and plumbing. The building offers excellent space for contractors, mechanics, hobbyists, storage, equipment, home-based businesses, or future conversion possibilities subject to city approval.
In addition to the home and workshop, the property includes an additional zoned lot, creating exceptional flexibility for future development, expansion, investment, or income-producing opportunities.
The home retains much of its original character, including hardwood floors, spacious rooms, and the charm expected from a historic Texas property. While additional renovation and finishing work remain, many of the most expensive structural and mechanical upgrades have already been completed.
