About this property

Cowboy Picasso | Where Art Meets the Wild West!

The Space
Welcome to Cowboy Picasso - a 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom artistic composition where bold western themes collide with modern comfort, just a brush stroke away from Abilene Christian University.
This isn't just a rental - it's a living canvas. Original western artwork fills the walls like a curated gallery, from geometric horses that would make Picasso proud to longhorn portraits worthy of any ranch. Someone painted this place with imagination and fun! Every room tells its own story.
