About this House

Open House for 11-23-25 is canceled. This stunning home sits on nearly half an acre in the highly sought-after Idiot’s Hill neighborhood. The welcoming front porch—complete with custom railings and brass-accented sidelights—sets the stage for the exceptional architectural character found throughout the home. Inside, you’ll discover original hardwood floors, unique light fixtures, custom molding, and beautiful stained-glass windows and panels salvaged from the First Presbyterian Church. Major updates include new windows in 2022, extensive plumbing upgrades in 2023, a fully renovated kitchen, and added insulation for improved efficiency. A brand-new fence was added in 2025. With too many special details to capture in one description, this home is truly a must-see!

    "Very diverse area. High speed is a great problem. Especially when they go 10 to 15 over the speed limit on Robinwood Lane. Ridiculous contact from both the fire department and the police department. Not sure why I was simply trying to dispose of moving boxes. That were wet due to the fact that the garage does not stay dry. That the Denton Fire Department was here."
