About this House

***RARE FIND HIGHLAND ADDN*** Nestled in one of Abilene's most desirable neighborhoods—where homes like this rarely hit the market—this 1947 cottage style charmer is full of timeless character and curb appeal. Set on a peaceful, quiet street lined with large mature trees, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers original hardwood floors, a spacious floorplan that feels much larger than its square footage reflects, and an abundance of natural light throughout. Enjoy the convenience of a detached 1-car detached garage that also makes a great workshop space, she-shed or man cave. The nicely paved oversized driveway allows for ample parking space. The large, fenced backyard, with alley access, provides endless possibilities for outdoor living, entertaining, or future expansion. This one is a true hidden gem with warmth, character, and location—don’t miss this rare opportunity!!

    "It’s a Beautiful Street. Group people take pride in their homes. When I was a little girl I wanted to live here. I dreamed of the house on Sayles Boulevard. Now I am lucky enough to live here. I took a little 1928 house it was nothing and made it into a beautiful home. People pass by all the time telling me how much they love what I have done here. I have a lot of pride in my home."
