Description
Only 7 blocks north of the historic Presidio County Courthouse, this well-maintained home on a corner lot in Marfa's Holmes addition is comfortable and convenient. The Holmes Addition was platted by one of the County's early ranching families. They constructed one of the grandest properties in Marfa, which still stands just a block south of 101 E 2nd Street. The Davis Mountains are visible just beyond the City limits one block to the north, and this neighborhood enjoys proximity to all that Downtown has to offer while remaining quiet and private. Built in 1938, this masonry home with cementitious-rock exterior is easy to live in with its split plan and quality updates. 2 bedrooms and a full bath with cast-iron soaking tub are on the east side, with a private bedroom and half bath on the west. At core of the home is the bright living room with fireplace and a spacious dining area adjacent to the updated kitchen with stainless appliances and granite counters. The exterior has been designed with enjoyment in mind: a xeriscaped front yard, large back patio with a shady pergola, and just enough lawn to enjoy some greenery in the high desert. The back yard is privacy fenced and has a 170 square foot storage room at the alley and a carport access from Highland Avenue.
