Own a piece of Texas history while enjoying immediate rental income! Designated as a Texas Historic Landmark, the restored 1894 John Elias & Ida May Herrington House sits on 2.44 picturesque acres, offering a rare combination of historic charm, modern updates, and investment potential.
The Queen Anne Victorian showcases original hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, intricate millwork, stained glass, transom windows, pocket doors, and multiple fireplaces, while updated kitchens and baths provide today's conveniences. The primary suite features a cedar-lined walk-in closet, and the home offers multiple living and entertaining spaces, including a library, formal dining room, wraparound porches, and a shaded flagstone courtyard beneath majestic oak trees.
