About This Home

The Kuykendall Queen Anne Victorian – One of Central Texas’s Most Beloved Landmarks Circa 1898–1900 | 3,250 sq ft | 3–4 bed | 2 bath | 0.4925 ac | Welcome to a living piece of Texas history that’s been brought completely into 2026 without losing a single ounce of its soul. From the street, people slow their cars just to admire the classic turret, wrap-around porches, gardens and perfect white picket fence. Inside and out, every detail has been obsessively restored and upgraded — new roof (2025-garage), new paint (2024), adjustable steel-pier foundation (2020), spray-foam insulation in walls and under first floor flooring, tankless water heater, Starlink internet hardware and pre-wired, and a restored private water well in addition or as backup to city water. This is not just a gorgeous Victorian. It is one of the most complete, turn-key urban homesteads you will ever find on under half an acre in the heart of town. Interior Highlights: Original long-leaf pine floors, three restored fireplace mantels. Grand dining room with Italian La Nordica wood-burning cookstove. Chef’s kitchen: gas range, dual sinks, wine fridge, Samsung fridge. First-floor in-law / Airbnb suite with private entrance, restored cast-iron sink, walk-in tiled shower. Palatial upstairs master with Queen Anne curved window seat, hidden gun safe, cedar closet, and direct porch access. Spa master bath: clawfoot tub inside the huge walk-in shower, marble vanities, back-lit stained-glass laundry chute. Former 4th bedroom now a luxurious walk-in closet with island and twin crystal chandeliers (easily converted back). Black EMF-blocked meditation / future closet room Outdoor Living Most Homes Only Dream Of. Six porches total — screened, open, heated/cooled, tiled, with stained-glass accents and pet-proof screening. Brand-new screened sunroom / outdoor dining room with bead-board ceiling, ceiling fan, and panoramic garden views. Massive detached two-car garage + office nook and RV/boat parking.
