5205 Lockwood Drive

Sometimes you wanna go…” to a location, location, location where you are surrounded by stunning properties with beautifully manicured lawns and large oak trees that make you feel like you’re taking a stroll through the park. The Lake Oaks area is one of Waco’s most coveted neighborhoods, centrally located to all the perks Waco has to offer yet still tucked away from the busyness of the city. This almost 1,800 sq ft, 3 bedroom 2 bath diamond in the rough could be made into your absolute dream home. It could be a perfect flip property for an investor, or better yet, ideal for those who like to live in a home for a couple of years while they update and then sell. There is ample room to add another bedroom and bathroom by utilizing some of the space in the enormous laundry room, or you could easily enclose the carport and add a massive amount of living space to do as you please! With some houses in this area selling upwards of $300/sq ft, it is incredibly rare to find a home at this price point in this condition. While the well-preserved kitchen still mimics a 1950’s diner with an original Hot Point, push-button stove top and intercom radio, it has had recent upgrades in the master bathroom as well as newer windows throughout the home. There is also an updated enclosed back patio (not included in the ~1,800 sq. ft) that was transformed into a beautiful, fully air conditioned sun room that dances with sunlight and overlooks a gorgeous back yard that is home to what has to be one of the biggest oak trees in Waco. This listing won't last long as seller plans to begin renovations shortly, and one renovated, this house may be listed for as much as double what it is now. Don't miss out on this amazing opportunity!
