Check out this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom charmer in Waco! This home features 2 living areas, a spacious kitchen and a nice tree shaded yard. Come take a look today!
Dean Highlands, located between Austin Avenue and the Brazos River, is a historic and residential Waco neighborhood with early-20th-century architecture and a leafy, walkable street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Austin Avenue corridor near the Waco Suspension Bridge, where patios, galleries, and small dining rooms set a steady street-level hum. The Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum anchors the riverfront’s civic presence, while the Dr Pepper Museum adds a distinctly Waco note in brick-and-bottle nostalgia. Craftsman bungalows and period cottages sit alongside larger porch-forward homes, giving the blocks a layered, lived-in look. Cameron Park’s trails and overlooks shape the outdoor rhythm nearby, and downtown’s cultural venues keep evenings active without changing the quiet tone of the side streets.
