An icon of Waco, this distinctive, architecturally significant property affords an uncommon opportunity to transform one of the very few, true Central Waco estate homes into a signature, landmark property. --- Revered for its prime location in Central Waco's acclaimed Hillcrest area, the last of its kind, this estate property boasts a 3.54 acre lot in the heart of the city that's as enchanting as it is private. Old growth trees, walled, garden patios, and abundant wildlife catch the imagination and transport residents to a private retreat, devoid of urban concerns; yet doing so without leaving any amenity, shopping, restaurants, schools, and attractions which are still just a few minutes away. There truly is nothing like this property's setting. --- Constructed in 1957, the 5,655 square foot main home showcases a floorplan which is thoughtful, practical, and lends perfectly to both entertaining and quiet sequestration. Generously sized rooms impress immediately upon entry in the home's foyer which could double as a salon. Flanked by formal living and dining rooms, floor to ceiling windows and abundant light wash over beautiful, original fireplaces and natural wood floors. An easily accessible powder room is tucked behind the foyer where the home's grand fireplace and central parlor beckon for cozy conversation and casual, fireside rest. --- Flanking the parlor, a wonderfully spacious kitchen (especially for this era) overlooks the primary patio with glimpses across the grounds, formal dining room, and into the parlor. Here, modern appliances and a breakfast room leave nothing to be desired while just down the hall, the home's laundry room is much larger and more useful than expected. Back through the parlor, also adjacent to the primary patio, a family room can be neatly shut off from the remainder of the home making evening parties and sporting events as raucous or serene as required for the home's other residents.
