Description
A rare architectural treasure in historic Georgetown, the J. H. Reedy House blends Late Victorian elegance with modern luxury. Built circa 1910 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this extraordinary residence sits on approximately 0.80 acres across from Southwestern University, offering 4 bedrooms, 4 full baths, 1 half bath, 4,652 square feet, and a detached 3-car garage. More than $900,000 in renovations since 2020 thoughtfully preserve its historic character while adding modern comforts. An expansive wraparound porch with Doric columns, Brazilian Ipe decking, and a sky-blue beadboard ceiling welcomes guests. Inside, the grand foyer features an original Victorian staircase, leaded-glass windows, hardwood floors, and restored millwork. Formal living and dining rooms showcase distinctive fireplaces and period details, complemented by a music room, private office, and media room. The renovated chef's kitchen features a professional-style Dacor range, premium cabinetry, and a butcher-block island with prep sink, opening to a sunlit breakfast room. Two primary suites, one on each level, provide flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. The main-level suite features a fireplace, French doors, custom walk-in closet, and marble-tiled shower with dual shower areas. Upstairs, the second suite offers handcrafted longleaf-pine vanities, honed marble countertops, a clawfoot tub, and travertine shower. Beyond the French doors, a covered veranda overlooks the resort-style pool and spa, English-inspired gardens, mature trees, and French-inspired gazebo with a distinctive lead roof. Notable upgrades include a DaVinci composite slate roof and SPAN smart electrical panel. Moments from Georgetown's Town Square, this one-of-a-kind estate offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Texas history. Schedule a showing today!
