Tucked away at the back of the property for ultimate privacy, this gated ranchette estate offers a rare opportunity to create your dream home exactly as you envision it. Formerly a beautiful, modern 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence with a 2-car garage, the home is now fully gutted-providing a true blank slate for renovation, redesign, or a custom rebuild. Built with quality in mind, the original structure features reinforced 2x6 framing, designed for durability and longevity. The layout was thoughtfully planned with an open-concept design, large windows for natural light, 8' ceilings on the first floor, and a dramatic 10' wall with cathedral ceilings upstairs. Existing infrastructure adds tremendous value, including plumbing prepped for a jacuzzi or sauna, three septic tanks, and a recently installed irrigation system. Whether you're an investor, builder, or homeowner, this owner financed property offers the ability to make your dream come true. ## Location - **Address:** 8809 E MONTE CRISTO RD., Edinburg, TX 78542 - **County:** HIDALGO - **Neighborhood:** EVERGREEN - **Coordinates:** 26.3264724, -98.0635895 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=26.3264724,-98.0635895 ## Virtual Tour & Media - **Video Tour:** tour.usamls.net/8809-E-Monte-Cristo-Rd-Edinburg-TX-78542/unbranded ## Listing Agent - **Name:** MYSSIE CARDENAS-BARAJAS - **Brokerage:** Harlingen Homes - **Phone:** 9568020217 - **Broker Phone:** (956) 423-5300 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/8809-E-Monte-Cristo-Rd_Edinburg_TX_78542_M87276-47844?f=listhub&s=HBRTX&m=29775775&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![8809 E MONTE CRISTO RD. - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/597871598747d4ad81215779804a1165l-f1767405426r.jpg) ![8809 E MONTE CRISTO RD. - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/597871598747d4ad81215779804a1165l-f3304225797r.jpg) ![8809 E MONTE CRISTO RD. - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/597871598747d4ad81215779804a1165l-f2143539816r.jpg) ![8809 E MONTE CRISTO RD. - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/597871598747d4ad81215779804a1165l-f1486621347r.jpg) ![8809 E MONTE CRISTO RD. - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/597871598747d4ad81215779804a1165l-f2430869752r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 29775775 | **Updated:** 2026-07-02 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Rio Grande Valley Multiple Listing Service Inc.
