History Lovers Will Love This Lovingly Restored Craftsman Home in Georgetown

Georgetown is the city for Texans who love history and love caring for historic homes. If you are one of those special people who have a calling for restoring and preserving beautiful architecture, then look no further. Known for its incredible Victorian architecture, city leaders realized what a gem they had during the 1970s. That is when they started passing ordinances to protect what is now the main driver for people to visit their city.

Fast forward to today. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Georgetown is considered to have the best-preserved Victorian and pre-WWI downtown historic districts. In total, Georgetown has three National Register Historic Districts: the Williamson County Courthouse Historic District (1911), the Belford National District, and the University Avenue/Elm Street District.

If your interest has been piqued, then you will want to see this 100-year-old Craftsman home that sits on an incredible corner lot in the heart of historic Georgetown.

Sitting on a little more than a third of an acre, the yard has fully mature pecan trees and beautiful covered porches in the front and the back.

A well-thought-out addition that sits back from the front of the home gives the owners more living space without taking away any of the charm of this lovely home. The interior is fabulous.

While the original hardwood flooring is to die for, it is the other little touches that are just sensational. Let’s talk about the fireplace. The beveled mirror behind the mantle screams old school charm. The same can be said about the window seats. There’s no doubt that those seats get great use from which to look over that magnificent lot. What ties everything together beautifully is the stained glass window. The colors pop and bring the room to life without taking away from the other features.

The dining room is flooded with natural light and it is absolutely lovely.

The white finish on the cabinets, accented by the blue tile, makes this kitchen pop. The kitchen seems much bigger than it really is because of the glass doors on the upper cabinets. Nice, nice, nice.

For lack of better words, the family room is comfy and cozy.

The bedrooms are just as nice and blend in with the original structure.

The flooring and the wood trim around the windows and doors are fantastic. You would never know this was an addition. The attention to detail proves that these owners loved this home. The same can be said about the bathrooms. They are smart and sassy and blend in wonderfully.

The cherry on top of this lovely home is that it is within walking distance of historic downtown Georgetown, which is filled with shops and eateries. The only thing better than experiencing architectural beauty is being able to come home to your own piece of history and relax.

This nearly 3,000-square-foot home located on Walnut Street is listed for $885,999.
