A Historic Home With Heart and Character! This beautifully maintained Craftsman is the kind of home that feels special the moment you walk through the door. Located in Smithville’s Historic District, it is rich with character, featuring the original windows and beautiful woodwork. With 3 bedrooms plus a flex space in the main house and 2.5 bathrooms, plus a bedroom and 2 baths in the guest house, this property offers a rare combination of historic charm and flexible living spaces. The 2 front doors are a charming nod to the home’s railroad-town history, when rooms were rented to workers with private entrances and bathroom access. Inside, the welcoming foyer opens to a central living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. The formal dining room connects to an updated kitchen featuring white shaker cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a 2025 Maytag refrigerator and a built-in breakfast nook overlooking the backyard. The primary suite offers an en-suite bath with a walk-in tile shower, while 2 additional secondary rooms share a full bathroom. Upstairs, a generous flex space has infinite possiblities. The detached two-story guest house offers a private 1-bedroom, 1-bath upper apartment with a kitchen and living area, plus a lower efficiency space with a kitchenette and bath, ideal for guests, a home office, or rental income. Thoughtful improvements include a metal roof(2019), insulation beneath the home(2024), AC compressor and motherboard(2025), cleaned air ducts, new water heater and sprinkler system. Smithville’s Historic District offers something increasingly hard to find, historic homes, mature trees, quiet streets and a genuine small-town sense of community. There is room to breathe here, with Buescher State Park and Bastrop State Park nearby. Just minutes from historic downtown Smithville, Main Street dining and shops, and with convenient access to Highway 71, you can enjoy the slower pace of small-town living while remaining within reach of Austin.
