Nestled behind sprawling pecan trees and established landscape sits an Austin Avenue estate awaiting its new owner. The historic Austin Avenue is home to some of Waco’s most storied homes. This home touches elements of a Tudor Revival while also being unique to its own design. As you approach the property, your mind will start to wonder of the stories this house could tell of social gatherings, family events, and life-long memories. Constructed by Wilton & Ethel Lanning in 1929, the original design and layout has been preserved while adding modern amenities for comfortability. The arched entry gives way to an open living space with hardwood floors that lead to the dining room. The natural light makes its way through the front of the home so well you’ll hardly need the recessed lighting until evening. The large dining room leads you to the kitchen with a traditional style that transcends time. This galley kitchen has great storage and countertop space and moves well for the active chef. On the opposite side of the home is a converted flex space that was believed to be the carriage house attached to the home - the current owner used this space as an office and yoga studio. The three upstairs bedrooms consist of a primary bedroom and two guest bedrooms. The primary bedroom has an updated bathroom and a walk-out patio. The two guest rooms share an updated hall bath. Detached and behind the main house sits a two-car garage with an upstairs living quarters equipped with a kitchenette, living room, and bedroom with a full bathroom. This guest house feature currently cannot be added if not already in place for this neighborhood, per neighborhood association. The guest house has hardwood floors and an abundance of privacy. This historic Waco home with a storied past is something that rarely hits the market. If you’re interested in adding to this home’s memories, schedule a tour today! View More
