Property Description
Tucked within a serene, tree-lined cul-de-sac, this timeless New England-style home is a work of art—crafted with care, rooted in heritage, and wrapped in quiet elegance, built by the renowned architect, Darwin Britt for his family home. Just a short stroll from the heart of historic downtown Salado, you'll find yourself moments from a 27-hole Robert Trent Jones golf course, destination dining, boutique shops, local breweries, art galleries, and the beauty of Pace Park and Salado Creek. Originally constructed in 1982, the home has grown with grace—expanded thoughtfully to include two luxurious primary suites that reflect the original post-and-beam architecture. Huge reclaimed longleaf pine beams, once part of 1920's railroad trestles, stretch across the ceilings, joined by traditional wooden pegs, grounding the home in Texas history and craftsmanship. Step through the front entry door from Texas' oldest continuously operating college and into the warmth and texture of rustic wood floors and walls, repurposed from a 19th-century gymnasium. The open living and dining rooms embrace a sculptural central staircase and anchored by a stately Count Rumford fireplace, blending beauty with utility. One wing offers a secondary suite with fireplace, clawfoot tub, and French doors that open to the backyard. Across the home, the secluded primary suite invites you down a window-lined gallery, revealing a private retreat with soaking tub, dual vanities, two walk-in closets, and a spacious shower. Upstairs, two charming bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bath and a quiet sitting nook—ideal for guests, or creative space. This is a home for those who appreciate the poetry of place. A place where history lives in the grain of wood, where design whispers rather than shouts, and where mornings might begin with a walk to the café and evenings with nearby live music. Whether as a full-time haven or a weekend escape, this bespoke Texas home is a rare and lasting find.
