This 5-bed/3-bath ranch-style house is your opportunity to own a piece of Texas history. Offering 3,142 sq ft of living space on 42.54 acres, the remodeled, 19th century home offers modern amenities paired with beautiful elements of historic Fredericksburg.
The sections of the home that were originally built in the 1800’s were remodeled in 2021 to include all new electrical wiring, plugs, lights, ceiling fans, switches and insulation. All the plumbing was replaced with new piping, sewer lines and gas lines. The bright, open kitchen was outfitted with all new appliances including an induction cooktop with an oven and a warming drawer, an icemaker with a 30-pound capacity, a built-in oven and microwave, an under-the-counter stainless steel sink with touch faucet, and a reverse osmosis system. The open-concept living, kitchen and dining areas offer beautiful views of the surrounding acreage and seamlessly pair modernity with a classic homestead feel.
The home and property were originally owned by the Arhelger family, who built the house and all out buildings with the exception of the new barn. Elements of their original home still remain, like the charming hardwood floors from a 19th century Fredericksburg building. A new master suite was added in 2004 of the home to include a large bedroom, bath, full laundry room and an additional guest bath. The remodel removed several walls to create a more open feel to the home and provide larger gathering spaces for enjoying time with family and friends.
Anderson windows have been installed to replace the original windows for energy efficiency, and the home features 2 water heaters for the 2 bathrooms, laundry room and kitchen, 2 separate AC and heater units, and a 3,000-gallon water storage tank with booster pump to supply the house.
