Some houses are simply places to live, others collect stories. Circa 1880, the Eddy P. Hawkins Home is one of Waxahachie’s most extraordinary historic residences—a nearly 150-year-old architectural treasure awaiting a visionary new caretaker. Beginning as a 2 room home and expanded around 1900 into the grand three-story residence seen today, its transitional Queen Anne and Neo-colonial character reflects the craftsmanship, growth, and social history of early Waxahachie. Adding exceptional INVESTMENT and MULTI-GENERATIONAL POTENTIAL is a SECOND HOME located behind the main residence at 707 W Jefferson. Built in the 1930s, this separate structure has its own water & electric meters, gas plumbing, and a 2-car carport—offering flexibility for a guest house, rental property, studio, workspace, and more! Set beneath towering trees on a .413-acre corner lot, the main home makes an unforgettable impression with double galleries, classical columns, a pedimented entry, intricate roof cresting, eyebrow window, and sweeping brick walk. Inside, generations of craftsmanship remain, including original pine floors, soaring ceilings, transom windows, beveled glass, elaborate pocket doors, ball-and-dowel fretwork, a richly detailed red-pine staircase, built-ins, and ten distinctive fireplace mantels—nearly every one unique, with many retaining original mirrors and tile. Spacious rooms were designed for gathering and have hosted elegant dinners, birthdays, anniversaries, receptions, Gingerbread Trail visitors, and decades of community memories. The shaded grounds feature thousands of reclaimed bricks laid by hand, garden paths, mature landscaping, and an outdoor fireplace. This is not a turnkey property. Properties combining this level of historic architecture, character, multiple structures, and utility flexibility are increasingly rare. Ideally positioned between the Railyard District and Getzendaner Park, with the Waxahachie Creek Hike & Bike Trail nearby.

Own a piece of Main St with built in income potential. The guest home has already proven itself as a successful short term rental, & works just as well as a long term lease, extended family space, or work from home setup. The pool & pool barn make an ideal venue for small weddings, showers, or private events, & the layout lends itself to a bed & breakfast concept for the right owner. Three structures, one property, endless possibilities. Buyer to verify city approval & permitting requirements for STR, event, or B&B use. This home comes with a story too. Built in 1902 by newlyweds Willia Getzendaner & S.P. Skinner, the home saw Skinner elected President Pro Tempore of the Texas Senate just 5 yrs later. Over a century later, the home was headed for demolition before a careful restoration moved it 6 blocks down Main St, earning a Historic Waxahachie Residential Preservation award in 2010. That move is why a 1902 home sits on concrete piers drilled to bedrock, w all new plumbing & electric. In 2011, the guest home & pool barn were added, along w a private pool tucked 7 ft below street level behind a stacked stone wall & cascading waterfalls. Current owners have called it home since 2015, filling it w birthdays, holidays, & front row seats to the Main St parades that pass by every year. Home turns 125 next year & is ready for its next chapter. Original hardwood floors, ornate millwork, welcoming porches & a balcony carry the character throughout. Main level primary suite plus 3 more bdrms upstairs with 2 full baths and tons of storage. Pool barn offers a stone fireplace, bar window, private bedroom, & full bath, perfect for events. Oversized heated 4 car garage w room for a full workshop. Over 5,000 sq ft combined across all structures, minutes from downtown. Most homes come with a listing sheet. This one comes with a history you can verify.
