About 813 W Main Street
Back on market due to no fault of the seller! Brand NEW Roof October 2025!! Historic Tax Exemption! Extremely rare opportunity to own a large lot in Waxahachie's highly sought after Historical District! As soon as you walk through the front door and onto the original hardwoods floors, you can feel the history and charm in this beautifully preserved historic home! Originally built by William Gibson for his bride in 1892 on land purchased from his father for 1,000 gold coins. His father, William Gibson, lived in the home next door and to this day there are steps on the front porch of this home leading to his father's house (mind = blown)! The land extends from Main Street all the way back to Jefferson Street, allowing a buyer to make their point of access on Main or Jefferson. This home has it all: charm, land, a pool, the ability to sit on your porch and watch Waxahachie's amazing parades, historic tax exemption, a new roof, and even a 1-bed, 1-bath cottage! Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of Waxahachie's history!
