Timeless Elegance on 1.3 Acres in the Heart of Waco This exceptional property perfectly blends historic charm with modern sophistication in a serene, tree-filled setting. From the inviting cedar shake exterior and brick paver walkway to the original hardwood floors and exposed wood beams, every detail reflects character, craftsmanship, and timeless appeal. At the heart of the home, a freestanding double-sided wood-burning stove framed by handsome brick columns connects the main living and dining areas, creating warmth and architectural drama. The chef-inspired kitchen is a showpiece, featuring butcher block countertops, a generous island with seating and hidden storage, and designer pendant lighting, all overlooking the tranquil landscape beyond. Distinctive touches throughout — herringbone brick floors, vintage tile in the guest bath, and built-in bookcase nooks — add layers of style and personality. Step outside to your private backyard oasis, complete with towering mature trees, an expansive patio for outdoor dining, a firepit for cozy evenings, and your very own creek running along the back of the property — a rare and peaceful retreat right in the heart of Waco. The property showcases numerous recent upgrades, including a new roof, enhanced systems, and the addition of a fully built-out guest apartment with a private entrance. This versatile space is ideal as a short-term rental, private office, or guest quarters, offering its own kitchenette, full bath, and living area. Completing the estate is a two-story barn with 870 sq. ft. of powered loft space, perfect for a studio, workshop, or additional creative retreat. Experience refined living and natural beauty combined, where craftsmanship meets comfort in one of Waco’s most coveted settings.
