About this House

Rivercrest Drive is a quiet two-block street on the banks of Elm Creek. Seldom are homes available on this street due to its desirability and the uniqueness of each home in this secluded part of Old Elmwood. 779 Rivercrest Drive is definitional of these qualities - this 6 bedroom, 4 bath home (which sold off-market to the last two buyers) with its fossilized limestone exterior and traditional design has been meticulously updated over the years, melding historic charm with modern convenience. From the enty, one accesses a bedroom with ensuite bath - ideal for private study or dedicated guest suite. The traditional formal living and dining suite opens into the heart of the home - an open-concept kitchen with brick floors, stainless appliances, granite counters, island, and subway-tile backsplash that flows seamlessly into informal dining separated from the den by a gas-log fireplace. The four, additional, secondary bedrooms each share two baths - two of the bedrooms (added in 2006) are joined by a common bath with framless glass shower surrounds and modern fixtures; the other, two secondary bedrooms share a hall bath on a corridor to the side-entrance, two-car garage. The generously-sized primary bedroom and its ensuite bath with dual vanities, frameless glass shower, & jetted tub has a large walk-in closet. Two outdoor spaces allow enjoyment al fresco - a patio with outdoor fireplace off the kitchen and a deep, east-facing patio oriented to your backyard for shady evenings under mature pecan trees. A bonus: a 422 sf basement with window wells providing natural light. This unique property provides a turnkey purchase on a street of historic homes in Old Elmwood.
779 Rivercrest Dr, Abilene, TX 79605 is a 6 bedroom, 4 bathroom, 4,812 sqft single-family home in Elmwood, built in 1941. It was last sold on Dec 30, 2025. This property is not currently displayed as for sale or rent on Trulia. The Trulia Estimate is $985,000, with a rent estimate of $3,835/month.

    "We haven’t had any community events that I know of. However, Halloween has always been a fun community filled evening with many houses that partake in handing out candy and people decorating their homes for the kids. It’s a good, quiet neighborhood though and everyone always seems very friendly in passing "

    "Love this area! Traffic is busy but surprisingly VERY quiet!!! HUGE back yards! convenience stores, grocery stores, crafts, movies, schools just a block away and school is fantastic!, day cares, car wash, clothing stores, churches, markets and amazing restaurants, fast foods, businesses of all sorts and all needed is all within a 2 mile range!! Neighbors are extremely helpful. All are police officers, firemen, nurses, day care workers, babysitters, construction workers, business owners, carpenters, electricians, mason men etc. LOVE it here!!! I wish my husband hadn't been transferred across the U.S. I hate to sell this home!!!!"
