1895 Victorian home featured in

An immaculately renovated 1895 Victorian home that was featured in a before and after on Country Living magazine's website. This house has a warm, cozy vibe with original hardwood floors, updated kitchen and bathrooms, tasteful furnishings and a giant back porch for catching the evening breeze. Enjoy the blend of old and new, such as exposed ship lap walls in the dining room and authentic molding throughout against the modern conveniences of a Bosch dishwasher and a Whirlpool washer and dryer. It's perfect for any type of getaway you need — a girls' weekend, a couple's getaway, or anyone interested in what it's really like to live right in the heart of a small Texas town.

Aside from its charm, it is 1/4 mile from all that downtown Waxahachie has to offer. You can meander down to the College Street Pub for a cold beer, live music, and tasty English fare. Or head to Farmluck for lunch and something sweet from their old fashioned soda fountain. Or grab a glass of wine at Cork Haus. If you want a taste of Dallas, head just 20 minutes north on 35 to the Bishop Arts District to eat modern Southern fair at Hattie's.

This home is family friendly and features an upstairs playroom stocked with toys. A pack-n-play is available on request. The home is also within walking distance to Waxahachie's newest splash park, as well as a newly finished playground at the Presbyterian church, just a short walk down Oldham Street.

Historic Gem

Such a sweet home which made our stay so special. We loved the historic charm, comfort and cleanliness of the property. It is central to visiting Waxahachie and the surrounding areas! Our host was very responsive and accommodating to our needs for our stay! During our next visit to Waxahachie, we hope to stay in this property again!

Lots of charm

This home nestled in historic Waxahachie was perfect for our family. Kiddo loved the playroom and exploring all the nooks and crannies! Walking distance to downtown and splash pad. Easy access to many area attractions (we took a day trip to Glen Rose and dinosaur valley). Host even provided sound machines in the bedrooms which were very much used as the train tracks are nearby! Highly recommend this home!

Waxahachie

Unfortunately we only had two days to spend at this wonderful house. I would love to have stayed longer and will definitely consider staying here again. The house is very lovely, in a quiet neighborhood and close to many restaurants and other sites. The host was excellent in her communication with us, and we would certainly recommend this property to everyone. Great stay!

Cute and comfy little retreat!

We met friends here for a fun weekend in Waxahachie. The house was great - very clean, close to downtown. It has one bed/bath and a powder room downstairs; upstairs is another bedroom with two queen beds and a third bedroom with a queen bed. There is a second full bath upstairs. There are two separate sitting rooms, a full kitchen, and a sweet little library room. LOTS of great books to pull from if you need a book break!

Perfect Location

This is the second year my friends and I have stayed the weekend here for our annual Scarborough Fair trip. It has plenty of spaces to get ready, a great little kitchen to make ourselves meals, and a beautiful porch for hanging out. We can’t wait to come back again next year!
