Welcome to this charming and solidly built home nestled in the serene community of Fischer, Texas. While the property includes a generous in-ground concrete pool—a rare luxury in our tranquil setting—there’s a disclosure of potential Alkali-Silica Reaction (ASR) in the pool’s concrete.
ASR, sometimes referred to as "concrete cancer," is a chemical reaction that can produce gel-like expansion and cracking in concrete over time. Pools in Central Texas, particularly those constructed from approximately 2017 onward, have shown signs of ASR due to shortages in fly ash a critical additive traditionally used to reduce ASR risk—combined with the region’s reactive aggregates and humid conditions.
.
Because of this, the listing price has been adjusted downward to reflect the possibility of ASR.
Here’s what you need to know:
Despite potential ASR concerns, the pool remains functional and usable future homeowners may enjoy it for years before anything becomes critical.
The rest of the home stands strong without known structural issues, and this adjustment presents a unique opportunity for both lifestyle enjoyment now and budget-conscious long-term planning.
This home is perfect for buyers who appreciate a ready-to-enjoy pool while also wanting the flexibility to remodel or replace down the road.
