About This Home
Perched above Landon Branch Creek and nestled among the treetops, this extraordinary mid-century modern residence—designed and originally inhabited by renowned Waco architect Robert S. Bennett—is a rare architectural gem. Cantilevered from a limestone bluff and evoking the essence of a treehouse, the home blends seamlessly into its natural surroundings while offering magical interior and exterior views through expansive floor-to-ceiling windows. Entered at street level, the home unfolds onto a large, covered deck and a captivating interior filled with natural light and original design elements that honor its 1978 roots, including natural wood cabinets, vintage kitchen hardware, a vibrant pumpkin-colored Formica countertop in the laundry room, New Orleans Blue porcelain sinks and commode, and Central American tile accents—a nod to NancyLu Bennett’s Latin American Studies background. Though timeless in character, the home has been meticulously renovated over the past three years with upwards of $225,000 in updates, including new flooring, lighting, paint, glass, bathroom and kitchen remodels, appliance upgrades, and expanded closets in the primary and secondary bedrooms. The home also features two balconies, a two-car carport with storage, a 20x24 workshop or game room below the main level, a rebuilt exterior stair system, and newly added multi-level decks. Whether enjoying the serene, wooded views, cozying up by the tiled fireplace, or entertaining in style, this multi-level masterpiece offers a private, artful sanctuary just minutes from Lake Waco and city conveniences—an iconic residence with only two owners in its storied history.
