Priced competitively at just $165,000, this property offers an incredibly rare, affordable opportunity for homeownership or a cash-flowing investment in one of the most rapidly growing cultural hubs in Texas.
WHY THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE STEAL: Buying an older home usually means worrying about hidden, expensive structural issues. Not here!

•BRAND NEW ROOF
•NEW WATER HEATER
•NEW FRONT & BACK EXTERIOR DOORS
•PREMIUM KITCHEN PACKAGE: Brand new, high-end Samsung black stainless steel gas range and matching refrigerator stay with the home!
MODERN FLOORING: Beautiful new flooring spans the entire main living and dining areas.
STUNNING ORIGINAL WOOD FLOORS: Gorgeous, original 1949 hardwood floors are perfectly preserved and ready to showcase if you do want—just waiting for your final custom polish!
THE LOCATION VALUE: Location is everything! Situated less than 3 miles from the historic Fort Worth Stockyards, you are under 10 minutes away from world-class dining, live music, rodeo events, and entertainment.
