About This Home
Welcome to 726 N 16th Street! This stunning 120-year-old home blends timeless charm with modern conveniences. Step inside to a grand entryway featuring a beautiful staircase. The spacious living and formal dining areas are filled with natural light and each has its own fireplace. The open-concept kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring granite countertops, ample workspace, a pantry, and a double convection oven. A standout detail is the ceiling beam, repurposed from a 1700s barn, adding a touch of history to the space. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms with abundant windows. The owner’s suite includes a private bath and direct access to the laundry room. Throughout the home, you'll appreciate the soaring ceilings, beautiful wood floors, and antique hardware that enhance its classic appeal. Outside, a second guest house offers 736 square feet of living space, complete with one bedroom, an updated kitchen and bathroom, a private driveway, and laundry facilities - perfect as a mother-in-suite, guest house, or income opportunity. The owners at one time operated a successful Airbnb out of the guest house. Potential buyer should check with the city regarding short term rental viability. At the rear of the property, a large, insulated, and climate-controlled building provides a versatile space ideal for a home office, studio, workshop, or hobby area. Situated on a beautiful corner lot spanning one-third of an acre, this home is just minutes from Waco’s thriving downtown, shopping, schools, major employers, and entertainment.
