Property Description
Own a Texas State Historic Commission Awarded Home
Built in 1900, this charming 1,500 sq ft, 3-bedroom, 2-bath historic home is memorialized in Aftermath:by G.A. Anthony. A Texas State Historic Marker at the front of the property provides a narrative about the home, also featured on the Texas State Historical Commission website.
This home boasts exceptional historic craftsmanship with original etched glass, box sash windows, and long-leaf pine floors in 90% of the home. The walls and ceilings showcase preserved ship lap, tongue and groove woodwork, and a stained glass picture window enhances the primary bedroom. The expansive primary bathroom offers burnished bronze fixtures, a clawfoot tub, double vanity, and a large glass shower. In the kitchen, maple countertops, a butcher block island, Kohler stainless steel sink, and original glass cabinetry highlight the care given to preserving the home’s heritage.
The landscaped grounds feature crepe myrtles, pecan trees, and a variety of tropical and herb gardens, including native blue Star of Texas flowers and hyacinths. A lifetime aluminum roof by Spade Roofing provides excellent protection, while the city-installed driveway and curbing, along with a professionally designed carport, ensure modern convenience. Enjoy evenings on the private front veranda, softly lit by a burnished bronze chandelier.
The 1915 carriage house has been converted into an office and storage area, retaining its original horse hay door. With an RV-compatible breaker box and extra outlets, this versatile space supports a variety of uses. The xeriscaped backyard includes a water garden, an above-ground pool with a raised deck, and a California Cooperage hot tub with waterfall features.
