Built in 1902 by newlyweds Willia Getzendaner & S.P. Skinner, this Main Street home saw its owner become President Pro Tempore of the Texas Senate just 5 years later. More than a century later, the home was headed for demolition before a careful restoration moved it 6 blocks down Main Street & gave it a foundation of concrete piers drilled to bedrock, with all new plumbing & electric. You get the character of 1902 with the bones of something built yesterday.
Original hardwood floors, ornate millwork, & wraparound porches carry that history throughout, with a main level primary suite & 3 more bedrooms upstairs, real space for a growing family or visiting guests.
Out back, the property shows its full hand. A private pool sits 7 feet below street level, tucked behind a stacked stone wall with cascading waterfalls that make Main Street disappear. The adjoining pool barn, the real star of the show, is built for gathering, with a stone fireplace, a bar window that opens straight onto the party, a private bedroom, & a full bath with a clawfoot tub. A second bath & a rustic outdoor shower sit just off the covered deck, so a day at the pool never has to end early.
A 2 bedroom, 1 full bath fully restored guest home sits apart from the main house, with its own kitchen & granite counters, laundry, generous parking, & a fenced yard. Previously run as a successful short term rental, it works just as well for extended family, guests, or income, with a gate in the privacy fence for whenever everyone wants to join back up at the pool.
Round it out with an oversized, heated garage with room for vehicles, storage, or a full workshop, & this property adds up to 3 structures, a private pool, & over 5,000 square feet of combined living space, minutes from downtown Waxahachie.
Most homes come with a listing sheet. This one comes with a history you can actually verify.
