Character, craftsmanship and peace of mind meet at 200 Oriental Road. Shaded by a stately oak in the coveted Castle Heights area, this 1948 bungalow was thoughtfully reimagined with an open, farmhouse-inspired layout and a top-to-bottom renovation completed under City of Waco permits. Inside, the family room, kitchen and dining area flow together beneath custom tray ceilings, anchored by a gas fireplace and refinished hardwood floors. The kitchen is made for gathering, with a large quartz-topped island, custom cabinetry, a pantry, a GE Cafe range and a whisper-quiet Bosch dishwasher, while a mudroom with built-ins and laundry keeps everyday life organized. Two primary suites offer rare flexibility. The main retreat feels like a spa, with a designer soaking tub, walk-in shower and oversized closet, and every bath has been beautifully updated. A playroom with a built-in Murphy bed easily hosts overnight guests. The 2020 improvements are the kind buyers rarely find: new roof, HardiePlank siding, energy-efficient windows, added wall and attic insulation, reinforced framing, updated electrical, PEX plumbing, two tankless water heaters and a 4-ton, three-zone HVAC system with Nest thermostats. Ring cameras, smart locks and a Rachio-controlled sprinkler system add everyday convenience. Outside, cedar plank ceilings warm the front porch and carport, and a remote-controlled gate opens to a private, fenced backyard with a cedar play fort, storage shed and lush St. Augustine lawn. The showstopper is the oversized, climate-controlled garage, with an engineered foundation, foam insulation, mini-split AC and wiring for a 220V welder and EV charger, plus room for two three-quarter-ton pickups. A block from a linear park and minutes from downtown via tree-lined Austin Avenue, this is Waco living at its best.
