Property Description

A rare opportunity to own a piece of Ferris history just south of Dallas, Texas, the Cottongame House (built 1894) blends timeless character with a remarkably flexible layout including a guest house —ideal for today's living needs.

Situated on a 0.60-acre corner lot with several pecan trees, the 2215 square foot main home offers 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, showcasing original hardwood floors, tall ceilings, and abundant natural light. A soaring vaulted living area with a warm brick fireplace anchors the space, while the loft provides additional living or flex space. The spacious eat-in kitchen, generous utility room with sink and space for an extra refrigerator or freezer, and a well-appointed primary suite with sitting area, walk-in closet, and ensuite bath add to the home's livability. The main home's inviting front porch offers the perfect outdoor living spot to enjoy your morning coffee, a meal with family or friends or simply relax and watch the world go by.

A true standout feature is the 791 square foot separate apartment (ADU)—perfect for multi-generational living, guest quarters or guest house, long- or short-term rental (no HOA) or business venture. The apartment includes a living and dining area, full kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, office, full-size utility room, two exterior entrances, and its own dedicated HVAC system, offering privacy and independence from the main residence.

The property also features an impressive 39'x25' 4-bay garage with ducted HVAC with its own dedicated unit, bathroom, a 12'x10' office, two storage rooms plus an attic lift for overhead storage. Additional highlights include two carports, ample parking (7 total covered parking spaces), and a concrete pad with exterior 220V plug for RV or boat parking.

Enjoy the charm of small-town living with the convenience of an easy commute to Dallas, making this a truly special opportunity for buyers seeking space, versatility, and historic character!
