Both bedrooms are carpeted and include ceiling fans; the primary bedroom is a well-proportioned room with a natural light window and access to a spacious walk-in closet featuring dual hanging rods and a central shelving unit. The second bedroom also benefits from natural light and a closet with sliding doors. Each bathroom includes a full tub-shower combo with a white surround, with one bathroom featuring wood-look flooring and a dark-topped vanity. Textured walls and ceilings are consistent throughout the home, adding a layer of character. A hallway connects the private areas, keeping the layout efficient and functional. This single-story space is organized around a central hallway that serves as the main artery connecting the various rooms. The corridor extends toward the back of the unit, with multiple doorways branching off on either side, providing a clear and practical flow throughout the interior. The walls feature a lightly textured finish, and the flooring transitions from darker material in the main areas to carpet in the rooms at the end of the hall.

Adjacent to the hallway, the kitchen is visible and features white cabinetry that provides ample storage space. A black refrigerator anchors one end of the kitchen, while a white range or cooktop is positioned nearby. The countertop appears light-colored and extends to form a partial partition between the kitchen and the adjacent area, adding a sense of openness between the spaces.

Overhead HVAC vents are present throughout, ensuring climate control across the layout. Natural light filters in through doorways at the end of the hallway, brightening the interior. The overall design is straightforward and practical, prioritizing functional use of space with a neutral color palette throughout. This single-floor space centers around a well-organized kitchen that serves as the heart of the layout. The kitchen is outfitted with a full suite of black appliances, including a refrigerator and an electric range with overhead ventilation, providing a practical cooking environment. Light wood cabinetry lines the upper and lower walls, offering ample storage, while the white countertops provide a clean, contrasting work surface throughout.

A peninsula-style breakfast bar extends into the adjacent living area, creating a natural division between the kitchen and the surrounding space while also offering additional seating and serving options. This open-concept design promotes a sense of connectivity between rooms.

A textured ceiling with flush-mounted overhead lighting ensures the kitchen area is well-lit. Neutral wall tones in warm beige complement the wood cabinetry and contribute to an inviting atmosphere. A doorway visible from the kitchen suggests additional rooms beyond, further extending the functional layout of the space. Built-in shelving near the kitchen provides additional storage and display options, adding to the overall practicality of the unit.

City - Waco

Where Dr Pepper was born, Baylor cheers ring out, and the Brazos River ties it all together, Waco blends small-city Texas charm with a cultural cachet. Roughly halfway between Dallas and Austin -- about 90 miles from each -- this McLennan County seat offers a smaller-town atmosphere without the price tag of a major metro. Tree-lined Castle Heights, the walkable streets surrounding Baylor University, and the residential communities of Woodway each offer their own pace of daily life, from quiet evenings on the porch to weekend afternoons at Magnolia Market at the Silos downtown.

The rental stock covers a wide range of styles and price points. Downtown and the Baylor corridor feature mid-century bungalows converted into rentals, historic apartment communities, and newer loft-style units. Farther out, townhomes and spacious ranch-style houses fill the neighborhoods near Woodway and along the Lake Waco shoreline, while high-rise options provide walkable access to campus or the river.
