Introducing the Hermes House, a rare chance to own a true piece of Texas history. On the market for the first time, this 1892 home has been lovingly preserved by the same family for over a century. A stunning example of folk Victorian architecture, it showcases timeless craftsmanship and character.
Built with cypress clapboard siding, highlights include an elegant double gallery, intricate fretwork, and decorative vergeboard crowning the front gable. Bay windows and 12-foot ceilings make it feel grand and spacious. The second floor features a private apartment with a side entrance.
Set on 5.282 acres—an entire city block—the property includes several historic outbuildings, such as a gazebo, buggy house, garage, servant quarters, smokehouse, barns, and a chicken coop. There’s also a modern metal barn with four roll-up doors.
Possibilities are endless for this stunning 5-bedroom, 4-bath home set on over five acres, just a short three-block stroll from the town square.
