A Rare Princeton Home with a Pool, 30x40 Shop, RV Setup, and Room to Spread Out

If you have been looking for a home in Princeton that offers more than the standard subdivision setup, 1336 Carlo Drive is worth a close look.

This property brings together the kind of features many buyers want but rarely find in one place: a pool, newer 30x40 metal shop built in 2023, attached garage, detached carport, 30 amp RV outlet, enclosed porch and sunroom, dog run, chicken coop, goat barn, and plenty of room for storage, hobbies, equipment, outdoor living, RV parking, or boat parking.

It is the type of home that works well for buyers who want space, function, and flexibility without being too far from Princeton, Lake Lavon, and McKinney area conveniences.


What Makes 1336 Carlo Drive Stand Out

Most homes in Princeton fall into one of two categories: newer subdivision homes on smaller lots or older homes that do not offer much usable outdoor space.

1336 Carlo Drive is different.

This home offers a larger lot feel with a practical layout and outdoor features that give the property more everyday use. The backyard is not just open space. It is set up for real living, with a pool approximately 5 feet deep, an awning, enclosed porch and sunroom, dog run, chicken coop, goat barn, detached carport, and a newer 30x40 shop.

For buyers who need room for tools, trailers, storage, equipment, weekend projects, pets, outdoor entertaining, or extra parking, this property checks a lot of boxes.


Property Highlights

Some of the standout features include:

  • Pool approximately 5 feet deep

  • Newer 30x40 metal shop built in 2023

  • 30 amp RV outlet near the shop

  • Attached garage

  • Detached carport

  • Enclosed porch and sunroom

  • Goat barn

  • Chicken coop

  • Dog run

  • Wood burning fireplace

  • Engineered hardwood flooring

  • Vaulted entry ceiling

  • Office or flex room

  • Walk in closet

  • Upgraded primary bathroom

  • Updated backsplash and countertops

  • Under cabinet lighting with custom color options

  • Roof, gutters, exterior paint, and leaf guards completed approximately 2 years ago

  • French drain around the home

This is a property that offers both comfort and utility, which is what makes it such a strong option for buyers who need more than just square footage.


A Home Built for Real Life

The best way to describe 1336 Carlo Drive is simple: it gives you options.

The 30x40 shop creates space for storage, tools, projects, equipment, or hobbies. The 30 amp RV outlet adds flexibility for buyers with an RV, camper, trailer, or other outdoor lifestyle needs. The detached carport gives additional covered parking, while the attached garage provides everyday convenience.

The pool and outdoor setup create an easy place to relax, entertain, or enjoy warm Texas days at home. The enclosed porch and sunroom add flexible space beyond the main living area, giving buyers another place to sit, work, gather, or use as a transition between indoor and outdoor living.

Inside, the home has several features buyers will appreciate, including engineered hardwood flooring, a vaulted entry ceiling, a wood burning fireplace, an office or flex room, updated backsplash and countertops, under cabinet lighting, and an upgraded primary bathroom.


Living in Princeton, TX

Princeton has become one of the fastest growing areas in Collin County. Buyers are drawn to the area because it offers more value and space compared to many surrounding cities while still keeping access to McKinney, Lake Lavon, and broader North Texas job centers.

Living near Carlo Drive gives you a more established, larger lot feel while still being close to the growth happening throughout Princeton. It is a good fit for buyers who want room to spread out but still want access to everyday conveniences.

Nearby Lake Lavon is one of the area’s major lifestyle draws, with opportunities for boating, fishing, picnics, trails, and outdoor recreation. For buyers who enjoy outdoor living, this location makes sense.


What the Lifestyle Feels Like

Life at 1336 Carlo Drive feels different from a typical subdivision home.

You have space to park, store, build, work, relax, and entertain. You can spend summer days by the pool, use the shop for hobbies or equipment, keep pets separated with the dog run, use the chicken coop or goat barn for small livestock or storage needs, and enjoy the enclosed porch and sunroom as an additional flexible area.

This home is not trying to compete with new construction on finishes alone. It competes on lifestyle, function, and versatility.

For many buyers, those are the features that are difficult and expensive to add later.


Schools and Princeton ISD

The property is located within Princeton ISD. Nearby school information should always be verified directly with the district, as attendance zones can change.

Based on nearby MLS data and public school information, the area is commonly associated with Princeton ISD campuses including Leta Horn Smith Elementary, Southard Middle, and Princeton High School.

Princeton ISD has shown a B overall rating under the Texas Education Agency accountability system. Third party school rating sites may show different ratings by campus, so buyers should review both official district information and independent school resources when evaluating fit.


Who Is the Ideal Buyer for This Home?

This property is a strong match for buyers who want:

  • A pool home in Princeton

  • More usable outdoor space

  • A detached shop or workspace

  • RV, boat, camper, trailer, or equipment parking

  • Storage beyond a standard garage

  • A property with room for pets or small livestock setup

  • A less cookie cutter feel than new subdivision homes

  • Access to Princeton, Lake Lavon, and McKinney area conveniences

The ideal buyer is likely someone who has outgrown a standard subdivision lot and wants a property that can support more of their daily life.


Why This Property Is Hard to Replace

The strongest part of this listing is the combination of features.

A pool by itself is valuable. A 30x40 shop by itself is valuable. RV power, covered parking, storage buildings, a dog run, chicken coop, goat barn, sunroom, and major exterior updates all add additional layers of usefulness.

Finding all of that together in one Princeton property is what makes 1336 Carlo Drive stand out.

Buyers can update counters, paint walls, or personalize interiors over time. But adding a shop, pool, carport, drainage improvements, RV outlet, and outdoor infrastructure can be much more difficult and expensive.

That is the opportunity with this home.
