This unique home (named Maple Hill by its former owners) is located on a beautiful, historic farm property, acquired by the owners' ancestors by Land Grant from the State of Texas in the 1800s. On a tree-lined hill with rolling pastures just south of the community of Harleton, this lovely custom farmhouse with wrap-around porch and amazing sunset views is ready for its next chapter. The house is conveniently located just 25 minutes to lively, downtown Longview, and 20 minutes to downtown historic attractions in Marshall and Jefferson. Its also situated just 10 minutes from lovely Lake O the Pines, and only 5 minutes to the scenic Enoch's Stomp Winery and the Bear Creek Smokehouse. The picturesque 3.77 acre lot carved from the original family farm, has a 2-acre charmingly landscaped yard, and is the setting for this custom 2,934 sq. ft. farmhouse with attached garage. The spacious floor plan begins with spectacular views from the 60 foot wide front porch, perfect for morning coffee or an evening enjoying the breeze and sunset views. As you enter the glass front door, a soaring entrance hall showcases an oak staircase and upstairs balcony landing, and opens to a cozy living room with wood-burning fireplace and surrounding built-in bookshelves. The oak-floored great-room includes an open concept kitchen with granite countertops, a large island, a wall of windows with views to the back garden, and plenty of space for both dining and casual living, as well as a built-in granite-top desk area. Off the kitchen and dining area is an enclosed, sunny, tile-floored flex room with large windows overlooking the gardens, perfect for hobbies or overflow dining. The mudroom and laundry has a utility sink and plenty of pantry storage, connecting to a spacious 2-bay garage with built-in storage. The floor plan includes 3 generous bedrooms, 2 full baths and a downstairs half bath powder room. The downstair primary bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom with 2 vanity sinks, a large soaker tub, and a glass-walled shower, plus a walk-in closet and a bonus bathroom closet. Upstairs are 2 large sunny bedrooms, each with huge walk-in closets and built-in storage. The bathroom connecting these two bedrooms has 2 sinks and a separate enclosed space for the tub/shower combo. There is also a flex room/office adjacent to a crafting closet in the upstairs hallway. Every detail of Maple Hill was thoughtfully and lovingly planned by the owners when they retired from careers in Houston to enjoy country life.
