Full of charm and unique character, this beautifully updated home offers a blend of classic features and modern open-floor planning with a touch of European flair. Featuring two bedrooms, one fully renovated bathroom, and a study/flex space ideal for working from home or accommodating guests, the home is move-in ready and suited for a variety of lifestyles.

Restored hardwood and Saltillo tile flooring run throughout, adding texture and timeless appeal. Plantation shutters enhance every window, and a wood-burning fireplace anchors the cozy living area. The inviting kitchen includes stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, a gas range, and warm finishes.

During the early 2020s restoration, a new HVAC system was installed, along with full roof replacements for both the home and detached garage. Additional improvements include a new water heater and a dedicated laundry area in the oversized 500-sf garage, which offers abundant storage and potential for future use. With the garage forecourt, the property provides parking for up to three vehicles. Appliances and some furnishings are negotiable.

Outdoors, enjoy a beautifully landscaped and fully fenced backyard with mature trees, a fire pit, and a serene garden space—ideal for quiet mornings or relaxing evenings. A charming front porch adds to the home’s curb appeal.

Located in the heart of Corpus Christi’s Bay Area, just a short walk to Oso Park, the community swimming pool, and minutes from hospitals, Padre Island beaches, and downtown. This home is a true oasis of calm refinement—combining character, thoughtful updates, and a prime location in one beautifully cared-for property.
