Property Overview

This exceptional Victorian-era home on Walnut Street in Georgetown commands one of Old Town's most coveted double-frontage lots, spanning nearly a third of an acre with independent access from both Walnut and Pine Streets. Believed to date from the late 1800s, the main residence showcases period character throughout—soaring ceilings, original craftsmanship, and a generous front porch sheltered by mature trees that frame the property's timeless appeal. Just steps from Georgetown's Historic Downtown Square, this address anchors a lifestyle centered around the vibrant cultural hub that defines the community.

What truly distinguishes 905 Walnut is the extraordinary ancillary potential. A two-story barn and carriage house occupy the Pine Street frontage, offering rare flexible square footage ideal for studio space, private office, workshop, guest quarters, or income-producing use. The lot's impressive depth and horse-friendly zoning create possibilities that modern subdivisions cannot match—the configuration may even support a second residence, making this property a canvas for entrepreneurial or multigenerational living arrangements. At $549,000, this Georgetown gem represents a rare opportunity in a community experiencing robust growth while fiercely preserving its historic character.

Agent Description

One of Old Town Georgetown's most distinctive addresses. This Victorian-era property — believed to originate in the late 1800s — sits on a rare double-frontage lot of nearly a third of an acre, with street access on both Walnut and Pine. Set just blocks from Georgetown's celebrated Historic Square, the home carries the warmth and craftsmanship of another era: soaring ceilings, a welcoming front porch framed by mature trees, and a private pool that makes warm Texas evenings effortless. What sets this property apart is not the house alone — it is everything around it. A two-story barn and a carriage house sit on the Pine Street side, offering the kind of flexible square footage that simply does not exist in new construction at any price: studio space, a private office, workshop, guest quarters, or income-producing dwelling. With lot depth running the full block and horse-friendly zoning, the possibilities here are genuine and varied. The lot's configuration may support a second residence — buyers are encouraged to verify with the City of Georgetown. This is a property for someone with vision. The bones are exceptional. The location is irreplaceable. Whether you are drawn to the history, the lot potential, the creative possibilities of the barn, or simply the rare chance to own something that cannot be rebuilt — this is it. Priced to reflect the opportunity and sold in current condition.
