About 12601 S Highway 77
WOW - check out this price drop and added bonus of NO CITY TAXES! Set on just under 4 peaceful acres near the heart of the charming town of Italy, Texas—known for its small-town hospitality, community pride, and historic downtown—this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect blend of comfort, character, and wide-open country views. A stunning porte-cochère creates a grand yet welcoming arrival and leads you to an inviting outdoor living space anchored by a rock, wood-burning fireplace. It’s the ideal spot to unwind on cool evenings, gather with friends, or simply enjoy the quiet beauty of the surrounding farmland. Inside, the home features easy-care ceramic tile throughout, a durable metal roof, and thoughtful updates in every room. A spacious secondary living area provides wonderful flexibility and could easily serve as a home office, craft room, playroom, or cozy man cave. A nice-sized laundry room adds everyday convenience, while extra storage is cleverly tucked throughout the home. Solar panels convey with the property, keeping electric bills under $75 most months—making this home as efficient as it is comfortable. Enjoy the slower pace of country living while still benefiting from an easy commute to the Metroplex. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy space, serenity, and small-town charm all in one special property.
