215 Castle Drive

Description

This unique property in Castle Heights sits on almost a half acre lot in this sought after historic neighborhood close to downtown Waco. Beginning at the front curb, you walk across an elevated walkway to enter the front door. Entering the home by this walkway gives you a feeling of a very private retreat. Looking from the railing of the walkway, you see a lovely yard below surrounding the home with plenty of well thought out space to play and gather with friends and family. Upon entering the home, there is an open and grand living and dining area with beautiful coffered ceilings. This living area receives plenty of light from numerous windows but allows for privacy with wooden plantation shutters. The main living/dining area also includes a wood burning fireplace for coziness in the cool weather. Adjoining the large living area is the kitchen and breakfast area. The kitchen has appliances replaced in 2018, a cozy built-in booth for eating, granite counter tops, a desk area and a HUGE pantry. Also on the upper level of the home, there are 2 nice size bedrooms and a full bath. Descending down the stairs to the lower level is a lovely wooden staircase surrounded by beautiful iron railing and accented with an exquisite chandelier. At the bottom of the stairs, you enter a foyer area that leads to the other rooms on the lower level; 2 additional bedrooms, a bathroom, the laundry room and the garage. The large main bedroom on the lower level has park-like views from the windows and a door leading directly into the manicured landscaped area around the home. There is a large closet in this bedroom as well as an entrance to the bathroom that has 2 sinks and a tub/shower combo. On this lower level is another large room that can be a bedroom/office/playroom, depending on your needs. Both downstairs rooms have LARGE closets! The laundry room is located on this lower level as well as a 2 car garage. The house received a new roof in 2021, and new HVAC units for the upstairs level of the home in 2021 as well. The driveway allows you to pull to the back of the home with an iron gate to close it off. This large driveway space in the back provides plenty of extra parking spaces as well as a separate storage building/workshop area.
