3375 Upton Drive, Kempner, TX 76539

Something's shifting in Kempner right now, the kind of change you feel before you can explain it. It shows up first in the shadows, long before it ever shows up in the Texas weather. Out on Upton Drive, one particular house feels it too. With a fresh coat of paint, a recently replaced roof, and a handful of other upgrades, this home has turned over a new leaf. The best part? You don't have to wait for fall to "fall in love" with it either. Outside, three quarters of an acre stretches out with mature trees in the backyard and a covered back porch built for the evenings when you wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Near the shed at the back of the yard, a raised garden bed is ready for fall squash and gourds, or whatever else you can imagine planting once the cooler months roll in. Step inside with a basket of garden-fresh pumpkins, and the kitchen island gives you all the room you need to turn them into pie...or just stand around and talk about it. Right off the kitchen, a flex room waits for whatever you decide it should be. Someone before you called it a hangout space. You might call it an office, a reading nook, or the one room in the house nobody else gets to touch. While we were busy swapping out seasonal decor, the attention to detail here carried through to the parts you don't always think to ask about, too. The septic tank has been pumped and inspected and the solar panels are quietly keeping the electric bill in check. And when it's finally too crisp to sit outside, there's a well-kept stone fireplace to curl up next to. Some houses ask you to visit. This one asks you to stay. With this kind of space, the covered porch, the fireplace, and the pie you haven't made yet, I'd bet you're already picturing yourself here. Turns out, there's no wrong season to fall in love with a place like this.
