5118 Old Highway 6

Welcome to your beautifully updated 4 bedroom, 3 bath ranch-style retreat on 2 acres just outside city limits! Set far back from the road, this home blends classic ranch charm with modern farmhouse touches and offers privacy, comfort, and convenience. It’s perfect for anyone and especially those who want a little space to garden and to keep animals, such as homesteaders.
Inside, a wall of windows in both the living room and primary suite fills the home with natural light. The oversized primary bedroom includes direct access to the back porch and an enormous custom walk in closet. Its spacious en-suite bath is beautifully finished out. A second primary with en-suite bath and dual closets is ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Several details shine throughout like painted shiplap, barn and sliding doors, fresh paint, updated countertops, lighting, fixtures, flooring, and plenty of storage, including an extra hallway linen or coat closet.
Having 2 acres, the outside amenities are endless. There is a detached garage or workshop with electricity and water. A barn for animals, storage or hobbies. A large storage building with electric. An additional metal carport that can be used for parking, boat or toys. Maybe even additional shelter if you have animals. A HUGE PLUS to many around here is the underground storm shelter for peace of mind in these Texas storms. The back half of property perimeter is fenced.
The backyard is large and partially shaded which is perfect for entertaining or relaxing. Watch sunsets from the front porch and sunrises with coffee on the back porch. Mature shade trees and a front yard flagpole add to the peaceful country feel.
And the location? Just minutes from schools (pre-K through 8) with expanded walking paths leading in front of the schools and toward downtown Van Alstyne. Enjoy concerts and events at the Central Social District, the Farmer’s Market, boutique shopping, dining, and more all just down the road.
