Summary:
Welcome to Billie Goat Haus! This home is situated 1.5 miles from downtown Fredericksburg in a charming, quiet neighborhood.
A great outdoor space features a large backyard with a hot tub, Grill, and fire pit. This charmer will become a much-loved destination for friends and families to gather!
The Space:
An open-concept floorplan provides plenty of room in this four-bedroom two bath home. As you walk into the living room, a large sectional sofa with a built-in chaise lounge offers a comfortable place to gather. The open space of the living room, kitchen, and dining area allows everyone to interact with one another, whether you are lounging in the living room or are the chef of the group cooking up a hearty meal in the well-equipped kitchen.
At the end of the night, when bedtime calls, each bedroom is outfitted with quality bedding and comfortable mattresses for a restful night's sleep. Bedrooms 1 and 4 have king-sized beds, while bedrooms 2 and 3 have queen-sized beds. The hallway bathroom features a tub/shower combo, while the en-suite bathroom has a stand-up shower.
The theme of adorable goats is featured throughout the home. The inspiration for the name "Billie Goat Haus" comes from the mascot of Fredericksburg, which happens to be the Billy Goat. Fredericksburg is rich in "Billie Pride" and is ready to welcome you to a beautiful piece of the Hill Country!
