Description
Welcome to your slice of small-town Texas living, where thoughtful updates meet wide open space! Nestled in the heart of Merkel just minutes from Abilene, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on nearly half an acre and offers a rare blend of comfort, functionality, and outdoor perks. Step inside to find a warm and inviting layout with recent updates that make this home move-in ready including a brand-new roof installed June 2025! The living room is equipped with a wood burning fireplace and the kitchen includes tons of counter space, tons of cabinets, a designated dining area, and a pantry! Outside you'll find an oversized shop, outfitted with electricity, perfect for projects, hobbies, or extra storage, plus designated RV parking and plenty of space to park all your toys! The fully fenced backyard is ideal for pets and play, and the covered back patio, complete with a speaker system, sets the stage for evening barbecues or lazy weekend lounging. A charming bonus: a small shed that once served as a chicken coop adds character and versatility to the property. You'll also enjoy the convenience of city water with the added bonus of a private well to keep your lawn lush and green year-round. This home truly has something for everyone; space, updates, and outdoor amenities that are hard to come by. Don't miss this opportunity to enjoy peaceful living with easy access to Abilene!

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy children and I love this school. Their academic expectations are high, the teachers are sensitive and driven, the office staff friendly, and other staff helpful as well. My children do well in this school. There are occassionally problems with peers (as is expected in this age group), but they are quickly resolved. If one of my children is falling behind, I am quickly made aware and the teacher and I work together to get the child back up with the rest of the class. I love this school and I love this town. You will find the friendly small-town atmosphere carries over into the school.Parent Review14y ago - Merkel High School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe only real saving grace for this school are the teachers. Don’t get me wrong, there are some awful teachers, but the ones that are good are the best teachers around. Bullying is a major issue here, academics are encouraged to be bare minimum, and if you aren’t in an extra curricular you will suffer.
