Description
Experience a rare piece of Waco’s history at The Morrow House, a distinctive 1886 ranch-style home adorned with Victorian ornamentation and character. As the very first home built in the Sanger Heights neighborhood, this historic gem combines architectural heritage with modern comfort - just minutes from Baylor University, the Silos, and Downtown Waco. Set on a generous double lot framed by a white crossbuck fence, the property welcomes you with timeless curb appeal. A gracious covered front porch provides the perfect spot for entertaining or relaxing, while the large, private back deck offers a peaceful retreat at the end of the day. So many of the home’s lovingly preserved details tell its story, inside and out - with original windows, doors, and shiplap, intricate lattice and corbels, and beautifully crafted trim. The thoughtfully updated kitchen features a gas range, pot filler, large island with counter seating, and abundant storage. Each of the three bedrooms includes an ensuite bath, and the spacious living area is perfect for gatherings of two or twenty! No matter the time of day, the home is flooded with natural light due to its perfect orientation on the lot, adding to its charm. Currently operating as a successful short-term rental, The Morrow House is offered fully furnished, providing flexibility as a private residence, weekend retreat, or turn-key income-generating property. Appearing on Season 5 of Fixer Upper and in multiple publications, including the cover of Cottage Style magazine, this home is a true Waco landmark, where history, style, and comfort beautifully meet.
