“The Truth & Beauty Laboratory”
Built in 1911 and set on nearly three-quarters of an acre on one of Carrollton’s most beloved in-town streets, just a short walk to Adamson Square, this historic home offers timeless character paired with extensive, thoughtful updates. The property also features an income-producing apartment, multiple outbuildings, and flexible space for work, storage, or creative use.
Inside, four bedrooms and two fully renovated bathrooms are arranged across a spacious, character-rich floor plan. The current owners combined two bedrooms to create an expansive primary suite featuring restored hardwood floors, dual walk-in closets, and a custom en-suite bath with heated tile floors, glass-enclosed shower, double vanity, and a recirculating hot water system. Two additional bedrooms are currently used as a study and a light-filled home office with original vintage details.
The remodeled kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, a Bosch dishwasher, vented range hood, deep undermount sink, custom storage solutions, and multiple bar seating areas. The eat-in kitchen overlooks a marble courtyard patio that is ideal for outdoor gatherings.
Major system updates provide peace of mind, including an updated electrical panel, significant plumbing improvements, sewer cleanouts, a crawlspace moisture barrier, and regularly serviced HVAC.
Beyond the main house, the property offers exceptional versatility. A one-bedroom apartment above the converted 1926 garage provides rental income potential, with a current tenant in place. Below, the original garage bays serve as a woodshop and garden workspace with separate electrical service. A detached two-story barn built in 2008 offers additional storage or future use options, along with a lean-to shed for equipment.
Additional features include a carport, mature landscaping with a pecan tree, four original marble fireplaces, and a large unfinished attic with expansion potential.
A rare opportunity to own a distinctive historic property with modern updates, income potential, and space to grow, all within the heart of Carrollton.
