About this House

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 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.

    "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. "
