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.

Eclipse vacation
We booked our stay here about 2 years ago for a family trip from the UK to experience the total eclipse. Katherine was very attentive and answered all queries promptly, advising on things to do etc in the area. The house is lovely, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. It had a great porch with a swing chair and rocking chair out front and decking out the back where you can sit and eat in the evening. The house is in easy walking distance of Waxahachie, which is a lovely little town. I would say though, that the trains that run through the town, blaring their horns at night are extremely loud. Even wearing ear plugs and using a white noise machine, we could still hear them. The first night we were there we had been awake for nearly 24 hours travelling, and got such a fright when they woke us several times in the night, as it doesn't mention them on the property listing. The wifi is also very slow and at times non existent and you really need some blackout curtains in the attic room. Having said all this, we had a lovely time and enjoyed our stay.

Great weekend getaway!
Loved every nook of this house! Beautifully decorated and so much character. My girlfriend and I were running the Hachie 50 and our husbands were our support crew. The house is perfectly situated, just walking distance to restaurants and shops and had all the touches of home if you want to stay in and cook. Katherine was wonderful and super responsive. Book it now! You won’t regret it!

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!

Repeat visitor
Stayed here again this year. Great historic house in downtown Waxahachie TX. We come for the Truck Show in the park. Walking distance to downtown square and restaurants, shopping, antiquing. Quiet neighborhood. Plenty of birds, squirrels, cats etc. running around making it fun. We even took critter treats with us this time to watch the fun. Truck show, like everything else is just blocks away. If we attend the show again next year, we'll be staying here again.

I liked the home and decor. My only one problem with the home is that there are on window coverings throughout the home. living room, kitchen, laundry room. I just prefer to use the ADT locking system and close the window shades.

Wonderful home
My group of friends stayed here for the weekend in order to be close to Scarborough Fair. The house was so cute and walking distance from downtown which was great for going and getting dinner. The owner was kind enough to provide us with complimentary coffee, tea, and popcorn along with access to Netflix and Disney Plus! Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay and would recommend it!

Wonderful home and landlord
This is an old home with a historical marker! It was super clean and included several supplies and even extras if needed. The home was decorated with period paintings and other beautiful decor fun to look at. I needed to call the landlord a few times and she was so accommodating, friendly, helpful and a very nice and easy person to deal with. I recommend this house with 5 stars on all counts!!

A wonderful home
The home was charming and nicely restored. The beds were comfortable and accommodated our family who were in town for a wedding. The back yard was really nice with a wonderful back porch. Katherine was a great host and accommodating when our flights were delayed. We would highly recommend this home.

Wonderful place to stay!
My husband and I had to be in Waxahachie for a family wedding and there were various members of the brides family staying at the house with us. It was a wonderful place, with plenty of privacy for each family member and numerous areas to gather and talk. The house has been updated with all the necessities to make our stay perfect. Katherine was available when we needed her and was able to let us in just as we finished our drive across country. Anytime we come back to Waxahachie, it will be our place to stay.

Charming historic home
The house was immaculately clean with modernized kitchen and baths and comfortable beds. We enjoyed its many seating areas and interesting details, and appreciated the easy walk to the town square. My daughter loved her cozy attic room. Note that you may hear the occasional train blaring its horn during the night unless you're a heavy sleeper. The white noise machines were just something different to hear and didn't fully mask the trains anyway, so we didn't use them. Note that if you sleep in the upstairs room with uncovered window and 2 large skylights, you may want to bring aluminum foil and painter's tape to block light and provide privacy. Most of the windows throughout the house have no window treatments, but we did not feel watched by neighbors. I recommend this house as a great option for a family staying in Waxahachie.
