Seller has shown true motivation in lowering price to sell NOW! Admired by so many over the years, now on the market! Uncover the allure of 401 Gresham St, originally constructed in 1922. Nestled on a coveted corner lot, this residence provides immediate access to Main Street Smithville, of Central Texas, where "Hope Floats" (classic movie shot in Smithville, 1998)! The home's front porch setting is where you can enjoy an occasional wave from neighbors and passersby. Step inside where the past seamlessly intertwines with the present. So many aspects of the home are still in place or replicated in keeping with its period. A living room with a wood-burning fireplace, followed by a study and dining room are spacious and flexible for your personal needs. They lead to the back of the home where abundant natural light fills a wonderful kitchen and breakfast area, where you can enjoy overlooking the backyard through a wall of original sash rope windows. Primary bedroom is downstairs. A very unique and interesting part of the home's architecture are front and back staircases that connect at a central landing, inviting you upstairs to an endless canvas of rooms and space. The exterior spaces of this home include a porte cochere, a garage, carriage house and an all glass greenhouse. Mature pecan trees canopy the property and an assortment of other fruit trees! This exceptional property offers a unique opportunity, allowing you to preserve its history while making it your own. Smithville is centrally located less than 1 hour from ATX, and less than 2 from HTX and SATX, offering unique shops, inviting eateries, and a surplus of recreational activities.
