About This Home

17147 County Road 496

Where modern comfort meets wide-open Texas country living! Welcome home to this beautiful new construction situated on approximately 2.5 unrestricted acres in Merkel, Texas, offering the perfect blend of fresh finishes, functional design, and room to enjoy life beyond the city limits. Offering approximately 1,700 square feet, this all-electric home features a thoughtfully designed split floor plan with generously sized bedrooms and plenty of space to settle in and make yourself at home. The open-concept living area is filled with abundant natural light, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere with views of the surrounding country landscape. At the heart of the home is a beautiful kitchen made for gathering. Enjoy a large center island, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, wine refrigerator, and an inviting eat-in dining area, perfect for everything from quiet mornings with coffee to Sunday dinners and entertaining friends. A flexible space also provides room for a home office, study area, or additional workspace. The private primary suite is tucked away from the secondary bedrooms as part of the split-bedroom design and features a spacious bath with a walk-in shower. Good-sized bedrooms provide comfortable space for family, guests, or hobbies. Outside, the combination of brick and siding gives the home a timeless modern-country appeal. A two-car garage covered back porch is made for slowing down and enjoying the West Texas lifestyle. Picture rocking chairs, morning coffee, evening sunsets, and peaceful views across your own acreage. Bring the cattle, build the dream shop or barn, create a garden, add outdoor entertaining space, or simply leave it open and enjoy the breathing room. The property is served by Sun Water and a septic system. Fresh construction, modern finishes, a split floor plan, unrestricted acreage, and room to roam—this is more than a new home; it’s your opportunity to create your own little piece of Texas.
