Description

The Morning Star Estate - Historic Charm Meets Income Potential | Alpine, TX. Set on approximately 1.08 acres just blocks from downtown Alpine, this rare offering pairs a beautifully preserved 1913 home with a fully separate, renovated duplex-creating a turnkey opportunity for multigenerational living, extended family, or an established rental portfolio. The Morning Star | Main House - Built in 1913 and thoughtfully updated, the Morning Star offers approximately 2,050 square feet of Alpine history with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The kitchen and bathrooms have been tastefully renovated for modern living, including walk-in showers and a commercial double oven and griddle, while original character has been carefully preserved throughout. High ceilings, hardwood floors, mahogany trim, chandeliers, and vintage architectural details give the home a warm, distinctive feel that cannot be recreated. The Morning Star Stables | Duplex - A separate approximately 1,620-square-foot duplex sits on the property and includes two independent, fully furnished residences. Both units have been renovated and offer flexibility for extended family, long-term tenants, or short-term rental income. Each residence includes two mini-split heating and cooling units, updated kitchens and baths, and furnishings. The estate spans seven lots, offering meaningful room for expansion beyond the three existing residences. The additional land creates potential for more guest accommodations, outdoor gathering spaces, hospitality amenities, residential and commercial development, subject to local approvals. Located just two blocks from Brewster County Courthouse and the historic Holland Hotel on Alpine's main thoroughfare, the property benefits from strong visibility and easy access to historic and eclectic dining, shopping and music venues. Currently operated using a combination of short- and long-term rentals and considered one of the more desirable and well-appointed stays in Alpine. Character, flexibility, and established income potential in one sale. Live in the main residence and rent the two guest residences, accommodate multiple generations, or continue operating the property as a furnished hospitality investment. Rental income history is available for qualified buyers. Most furnishings, decor, linens, kitchenware, and operational items convey with the sale for near turnkey transition.

    "ALPINE is extremely animal friendly for pet lovers. Openly keel your fur babies with you wherever you go, just be sure to take baggies with you and pick up any of their droppings. There are beautiful walking trails and gorgeous sunsets and the most amazing night skies. Also we have a couple of great veterinarians here in town."

    "I have lived in Alpine for 15 years and worked here for 8. It is a diverse community that offers a lot of resources for its small size: hospital, university, good private and public schools, lots of nature based recreation with 1/3 of Texas' public open space within 1 1/2 hr drive. Clean air. Dark nights good for astronomy. "
