Thursday Three Hundred: Farmhouse in McKinney’s Historic District Makes Old Look New

408-Byrne-Front

Historic homes have many charming quirks that make them popular with people who are prepared to put up with the headaches they sometimes provide. To say that building codes have come a long way since the turn of the century, which was when many homes in McKinney’s historic neighborhoods were built, is a vast understatement. Still, when building a home in an area with character such as the T. T. Bradley subdivision, attention to detail inside and out is key.

That’s why this cute farmhouse at 408 Byrne fits the area like a glove!

 

408-Byrne-Porch

From the curb it’s an adorable Craftsman-style bungalow with a spacious front porch and bright paint complete with bed-sized porch swing. It’s just the perfect mixture of farmhouse charm and modern amenities! The home is a short walk from McKinney’s gorgeous downtown and Chestnut Square, where you can find shopping and dining, too.

Inside you’ll appreciate it’s open floorplan and gorgeous oak floors, as well as the low-key vibe from the casual family area that moves on to the kitchen. With three bedrooms, two full baths, 2,341 square feet is on the market for $349,000. This farmhouse, with the wainscoting and muted neutral paint, really evokes a country feel without being “country.” No cutesy wall-hangings and floral patterns everywhere.

The open floorplan is just perfect for young children and busy lifestyles. The dining area, which is spacious and situated just off the kitchen, is perfect for low-maintenance meals and casual everyday get-togethers as well as holidays and parties. There’s an additional space just off the entry that could be a formal living or dining room, or an office if you work from home.

There’s new carpet in the master bedroom, which is 17×13. I like the tray ceiling but I think they should’ve pulled the blinds up all the way or turned on an extra light because boy, does it feel dark in there. The master bath is a five-piece affair with a corner tub and shower. It’s big enough to feel like enough room for two adults, and has a great closet.

The backyard is awesome for an active family. With a new fence, a play area, and a spot for your smoker, you’ll be barbecuing every weekend, throwing a brisket on, filling a few ice chests, and inviting all your friends and neighbors to hang out on your covered deck. Cornhole anyone?
