Property Description
Step into a rare piece of architectural history designed by UT-trained architect Donald Mayes who studied and trained under the LEGENDARY architect Frank Lloyd Wright. This one-of-a-kind midcentury modern home offers over 3,850 square feet of character, creativity, and incredible potential — all in one of Sherman's most established neighborhoods.
Built in 1952 and filled with original details, this 4-bedroom home is a true architectural gem for buyers who appreciate vintage design, unique spaces, and homes with a story to tell. Original hardwood floors, Saltillo tile, vintage shutters, custom built-ins, secret passages (two of them!), and thoughtful midcentury elements create a home unlike anything else on the market. The expansive main living and dining area is anchored by a stunning fireplace and oversized built-in, offering the perfect backdrop for entertaining, relaxing, or restoring this iconic property to its full glory.
The spacious primary suite features an ensuite bath, separate mirrored dressing area with sink, and two large walk-in closets — a rare luxury for a home of this era. Downstairs, the finished basement adds incredible flexibility with its own private entrance, separate bedroom, full bath, and kitchenette, making it ideal for multigenerational living, guest quarters, home office, or possible rental opportunities.
Outside, the large backyard offers mature trees, an entertainment deck, storage building, and plenty of room to create your dream outdoor oasis — including space for a future pool.
Located in the heart of desirable West Sherman with convenient access to Highway 75, this home combines architectural significance, hard-to-find square footage, and unbeatable potential at an attractive price point. Opportunities like this rarely come available. Come see the possibilities for yourself!
