Entering the housing market and buying your first home isn’t as impossible as it may appear. In fact, there’s a perfectly reasonable property in Fort Worth that caught our eye.
This darling home at 4725 Roxanne Ct. comes with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and some significant savings, if you’re a first-time homebuyer, that is.
First-time buyers can take advantage of one-year rate buy-down programs to lower the interest rate for their first year of ownership. It’s the kind of thing that can be just the extra lift needed to get someone into a single-family home. In this case, such a program can save a first-time buyer upwards of $265 a month during their first year of payments.
“I think a first-time buyer would be perfect,” said Realtor Irfan Malike with Keller Williams Realty. “I also think it would be great for somebody who is looking for elbowroom because it’s a half-acre lot.”
That elbow room comes with few restrictions because there’s no HOA to contend with. Forget the monthly dues, paint the front door any color and fly a fun flag of your choice.
A couple of rocking chairs would complete this peaceful porch.
Impressive Touches
There are other reasons for a first-time buyer to purchase this house besides a deal on the mortgage. One of those reasons starts at the street before the front door is even opened. The sidewalk leads to a charming covered front porch accented with crisp landscaping.
“The curb appeal makes it seem as though you’re out in the country,” Malike said. “It’s just peaceful. Put a couple of rocking chairs out there, drink your coffee, and enjoy life.”
Crown molding and a stone fireplace make for some impressive touches.
Luxury vinyl plank flooring, stainless-steel appliances, and a breakfast bar make this a modern kitchen.
The dining space can accommodate friends and family.
Inside this 1,815-square-foot house are some impressive touches for a property listed at $420,000. This north Fort Worth abode comes with plantation shutters, luxury vinyl plank floors, and crown molding.
The traditional touches continue in the living room with its tray ceiling and stone fireplace topped by a cozy cedar mantle. Just beyond, the kitchen maintains the style with granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and a spacious walk-in pantry that’s ready to stockpile groceries for a crowd.
The grocery haul will stash nicely in this walk-in pantry.
Built in 2018, the house contains three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The private owner’s suite provides a quiet space to unwind. The attached bathroom includes dual granite-topped vanities, a walk-in shower, and an ample closet offering plenty of storage.
The light and bright primary bedroom connects to an ensuite bathroom.
Practical Features
Practicality is part of the package, too. The home includes a laundry room with space for folding and storage, plus a mud area just off the garage. The fully fenced backyard, with plenty of space for a pool, swing set, or garden, comes with a sprinkler system that spans the yard. All of it can be enjoyed from the covered patio that has a ceiling fan.
“It’s totally move-in ready and well cared for,” Malik said. “It’s something unique that you don’t find in this area at this price point. It’s a great value for the price and the lot size.”
French doors open to the covered patio.
Malike is happy to show the home. He’s holding an open house from noon to 2 p.m. Sept. 27.
