And a little about Maxine: she was a true 1932 Model, as she fondly called herself, hailing from Eula, TX. Maxine earned numerous basketball medals in high school and spent over 50 years as a beloved teacher with Abilene Independent School District. She later went on to mentor future educators, wrapping up her career at Abilene Christian University. Living to the grand age of 91, she passed away in 2023. Maxine adored this home, and her granddaughter, after giving it a few updates, is thrilled to share its warmth and charm with you!

Summary: Nice yard and sufficient parking. Place was a bit run down and tired. Popcorn ceiling in the dining area was peeling and hanging down, counter top either side of the range was stained from probably a previous install? Seems that the neighbors use the garbage can when they think no one was there since it magically was overflowing and moved to street leaving us with bags of garbage that they wouldn’t take when we set them by the can. Overall was fine but would probably try somewhere else next time.
