Description

Introducing the Hermes House, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true piece of Texas history. On the market for the first time, this home was built in 1892, and has been lovingly preserved by the same family for over a century. A masterful example of folk Victorian architecture, it embodies timeless craftsmanship and character that cannot be replicated.

Constructed with cypress clapboard siding, the home radiates warmth and history. Every feature tells a story, from the elegant double gallery and intricate fretwork to the decorative vergeboard crowning the front gable. Bay windows and ornate, jigsawn porch details enhance its charm. Inside, 12-foot ceilings create a grand, spacious feel. Thoughtfully expanded over the years, the home seamlessly blends its historic beauty with modern comforts. The second floor includes a private apartment with its own side entrance, offering versatility for multi-generational living or rental potential.

Located 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 a concrete floor and four roll-up doors, offering flexible space for storage, parking, or a workshop. .

Possibilities are endless for this stunning five-bedroom, four-bath home set on over five acres, just a short three-block stroll from the town square. Don’t miss the chance to own this extraordinary piece of history!

Directions: From the town square in La Grange. Take North Main Street north for three blocks. The house will be on your left.
