As a cornerstone of the Waco real estate landscape, this neighborhood has been cherished over the years and has seen extensive renovations. 3228 Colcord Avenue sits prominently on a corner lot, graced by large Live Oak trees and exuding comforting curb appeal. Its own renovation was completed a few years ago with notable updates including a new roof, new HVAC, updates to the plumbing and electrical systems, and many cosmetic improvements. The renovation embraced the original design, preserving that original look and feel as the project's core focus. Achieving a balance between maintaining the original charm and making necessary updates is challenging, but 3228 Colcord pulled it off with style. At first glance, the subtle landscape yields to the ranch-style home, blending perfectly with the surrounding trees. Like most ranch-style homes, the front door opens into the main living area, which leads either to a secondary living area or the dining room, depending on the path taken. The original wood floors create a warm vibe adaptable to a variety of personal styles. Although the dual living space setup is great, you can still create a buffer and separate the two areas with concealed pocket doors. There's a seamless flow into the kitchen from the secondary living room, dining room, and sunroom, making it an excellent setup for hosting guests and parties. Butcher block counters add a design touch that complements the original wood floors and painted shiplap, providing a fresh new look. Throughout the home, shiplap adorns the walls and ceilings. During the renovation, it was carefully chosen to expose some, paint others, and cover some sharing exterior walls with sheetrock for better insulation. Painted shiplap in the kitchen pays tribute to its original design while offering a brighter and more cheerful look that balances out the blue tones of the floor and cabinets. A new sink and faucet, designed to appear original to the house, reflect the renovation's thoughtfulness—they also overlook the yard through a window that lets natural light pour in. As you explore this home, you'll appreciate all the original built-ins, which remain as useful today as they were originally. The most prominent feature is the floor-to-ceiling built-in that separates the two living rooms. Each living room also has its own fireplace. The bedrooms are situated at either end of a connecting hallway, each with its own bathroom access; one bathroom is also conveniently accessible from the main living areas. The large guest room, equipped with built-ins and a closet, offers ample space for either a king-size bed and bedroom set or a twin bed arrangement. In the primary bedroom, functionality meets design with an entire wall dedicated to storage, providing extensive space for clothing and shoes. At the entrance, a practical vanity is perfectly positioned for starting your morning routine and planning your day. Additionally, the expansive primary bathroom features abundant storage and a walk-in shower, enhancing the overall utility and comfort of the space. Before you reach the backyard, you'll pass through the sunroom, which used to be the back porch. Enclosing this space provides a variety of uses, with popular options including a plant room, reading area, or additional dining space. There is even a smoker built into the house accessible in the sunroom and back porch - a fun touch most would never assume was even there. A lush backyard with more towering trees is not surprising in this neighborhood. The yard is completely fenced and offers plenty of options, with ample additional parking near the street on the side of the yard. The two-car garage is functional and even includes a workshop. 3228 Colcord Avenue looks wonderful in pictures and presents even better in person. If you’re in the market for a renovated home with character that didn’t cut corners on updating the core functions of the house, this is the one for you!
