Property Description
Own a Piece of Temple's History with this Stunning 1909 Landmark in the City's Original Neighborhood. Designed by the renowned architect Rigsby Barclay and built in 1909, this iconic home showcases timeless craftsmanship and architectural significance. Constructed of poured concrete and featuring soaring 12-foot ceilings, the residence exudes classic charm. Inside, original details like custom inlaid hardwood floors, vintage gas fireplaces, hidden hearths, and brass floor outlets add character and history to every room. Spanning over 3,000 sq. ft. across the main and upper levels, the home offers bright, spacious living areas perfect for both everyday life and entertaining. The expansive 4,000 sq. ft. basement presents endless possibilities—from a gym or art studio to a no-stairs apartment conversion. Situated on a generous 0.809-acre lot, the property is shaded by mature oak trees and a fruiting pecan, featuring a hidden garden, fire pit, and several outbuildings including a converted carriage house garage. Thoughtful updates have been made to preserve the home's historic charm while improving livability, including a new roof (2024), three AC units (2021 & 2023), upgraded electrical and plumbing, and perimeter fencing. Located less than a mile from downtown Temple's vibrant arts and dining district and minutes from Baylor Scott & White Medical Center, this unique home offers a rare blend of history, space, and convenience—just an hour from Austin.
