Built in 1913

Beautiful and historic 1913 home located in Schertz. This charming residence once housed the Farmer's Rural Telephone Company, until it was bought out by Southwestern Bell in 1958. It was then transformed into a family home by its current owner's family. The street, Exchange Avenue, earned its name from the home being the local telephone exchange. Within the past decade, the property was honored with a historic marker. The plumbing was upgraded using Pex from the street connection through the buildings in 2024. A Rennai tankless hot water heater was part of the update. Electrical updates were completed in 2009, along with the installation of a Trane Xl15 heat pump with a variable speed fan for efficient HVAC. In 2024, the metal roof received a new protective coating, the exterior was freshly painted, and new flooring was installed in the bathroom and kitchen. The rest of the home features beautiful original wood floors. Additionally, a detached garage with a workshop is located at the back of the property.
