A Celebrated Piece of Waco History
Welcome to an extraordinary opportunity to own a distinguished piece of Waco’s architectural heritage. Located in the heart of the Sanger Heights neighborhood, this remarkable Folk Victorian—built in 1893—stands as a testament to historic preservation and thoughtful creativity. With gingerbread trim and an authentic cedar shake roof, the home welcomes guests through an original stained glass front door.
Inside, discover original pine flooring in the living room, dining room, and bedrooms, arched doorways, dormer windows, and a Victorian-style balcony off the primary suite. Period details abound: vintage-style mailbox, decorative door knocker, wrought iron kitchen accents, and a custom vanity. A converted 19th-century gaslight now illuminates the stairwell with vintage flair.
The first floor offers a spacious living room with arched wooden doors, a country-style kitchen, half bath, and a dining room that opens into a bonus room—ideal as an office, playroom, or studio. Upstairs are two large bedrooms with ample closets; the front bedroom opens to a private balcony.
Outdoors, enjoy a pollinator-friendly landscape with native and drought-tolerant plants, fruit trees, and permaculture elements maintained by drip irrigation. A wrap-around porch, antique brick paths, flagstone patios, and two firepit areas create a serene setting. Three backyard sheds offer further potential—one equipped with a water line and ready for conversion to an ADU, short-term rental, or creative retreat.
Featured in Historic Homes of Waco and winner of the 2024 Medallion Preservation Award, this home also includes full ownership history. With an acceptable offer, most interior and exterior furnishings—and some renovation supplies—may convey. This is more than a home—it’s a living legacy.
