Step back in time with this magnificent Victorian masterpiece, built in 1895 and offering a rare opportunity to own one of Marlin's historic treasures. Rich with original character, timeless craftsmanship, and remarkable architectural details, this 6-bedroom, 3-story home is ready for its next chapter. Best of all, it is not located in a historic district, allowing greater flexibility for renovations while preserving its incredible character.
Inside, you'll find a grand double staircase, soaring ceilings, stained glass windows, oversized original doors with transoms, stunning original tile fireplaces, and beautifully preserved old-growth pine hardwood floors. Intricate woodwork, original baseboards, crown molding, trim, and casings showcase craftsmanship rarely found today.
The first floor features two elegant parlors, each with an original tiled fireplace, a formal dining room with its original built-in hutch, a vintage kitchen ready for renovation, and a secondary primary suite with an ensuite bath awaiting restoration.
Upstairs are five spacious bedrooms filled with natural light, along with more original woodwork, doors, and transoms. The full bath retains its vintage charm, including a classic cast-iron tub.
The third floor is a spectacular open-concept space with soaring cathedral ceilings, ideal for a game room, theater, studio, office, gym, or additional living area.
Situated on nearly one acre, the property includes multiple outbuildings, a detached workshop, an attached carport, and an original backhouse with potential for guest quarters, rental income, or multigenerational living.
While the home needs renovation, its structural integrity, preserved details, and exceptional craftsmanship make it an extraordinary opportunity. Whether restoring a grand family estate, creating a boutique bed and breakfast or Airbnb, or preserving a remarkable piece of Texas history, this Victorian offers endless possibilities.
