Straight out of a storybook! This incredible 1929 Craftsman is anything but ordinary. Tucked into a wooded hillside and surrounded by mature trees, this home is filled with character, craftsmanship and unexpected details around every corner. The elevated setting offers sought after views that can be enjoyed from multiple outdoor decks, porches, and gathering spaces. From the stone and wood exterior and sprawling covered front porch to the original hardwood floors, rich stained woodwork, coffered ceilings and beautiful built ins, the charm of this home is hard to put into words. You truly have to experience it. And then there are the surprises! Discover a tiny hidden room tucked behind a closet and another secret space beneath an upstairs bedroom, complete with a dirt floor. Quirky little pieces of this home's nearly 100 year history that make it unlike anything else. The lower level provides additional flexible living space and has previously been used as a short term rental, offering potential for guest accommodations, a private suite or future STR use. Outside, the property transforms into a secluded, resort style retreat designed for year round enjoyment. The pool features a swim up bar and is complemented by an outdoor kitchen, poolside restroom, hot tub and multiple fire features. It is an incredible setup for entertaining or simply escaping at home in any season. Two storage buildings provide additional space for all the extras. And while it feels wonderfully tucked away, you're still within walking distance of downtown Mineral Wells, giving you easy access to the shops, restaurants and attractions that make downtown special. Historic, whimsical, private and completely unforgettable. This isn't a cookie cutter home, it's a storybook property with personality around every corner, incredible outdoor living and a setting that's truly hard to duplicate.
