Opportunities like this are few & far between. The address says Waxahachie, but the schools are sought after Palmer ISD, & the lifestyle is pure Texas. Built for those who appreciate craftsmanship over trends, this 4 bedroom custom home with flexible floor plan sits on five usable acres outside the city limits, giving you the freedom that has become increasingly hard to find. Open skies, fresh air, & enough room to make every season a little more memorable. For the horse enthusiast, the six-stall barn isn't an afterthought—it's part of the lifestyle. Saddle up after work instead of fighting traffic. Watch the kids learn responsibility in the barn before dinner. Ride the property, feed the horses at sunset, & enjoy the simple routines that never really feel like chores. When the work is done, the fun begins. Summer afternoons naturally drift toward the pool while friends & family gather around the outdoor kitchen, where brisket smokes low, stories grow taller, & nobody seems to be in a hurry to leave. The detached 30x40 workshop with overhangs stands ready for projects, equipment, classic cars, woodworking, or the business owner who finally has room to spread out. A circle drive welcomes guests with plenty of parking, while the fenced acreage offers peace of mind for children, pets, & livestock alike. Every part of this property was designed to be lived in—not just looked at. The location is every bit as appealing as the property itself. Enjoy the privacy of country living while remaining within easy reach of Waxahachie, Dallas, Ennis, Corsicana, & Interstate 45, making shopping, dining, healthcare, and commuting surprisingly convenient.
