About this property
Tucked away on a quiet street in the heart of Georgetown’s Historic District, this inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends beautiful historic charm with modern updates. Built in 1884 as the parsonage for Georgetown’s first Baptist preacher, the residence still bears his name on a preservation plaque and retains original features. Inside, refinished wood floors (original in the dining room), crown molding, and recessed lighting highlight timeless details. The kitchen features a bar, peninsula, and rustic wood wall accents, perfect for casual meals or entertaining. The office/living room includes a built-in floor to ceiling bookcase with rolling ladder, while a spacious tiled laundry room offers flexible space as an office. Both bathrooms were remodeled in 2017, with the larger showcasing Jack and Jill entrances and the original clawfoot tub. Outdoor living includes a private fenced backyard and tiled patio for starlit dining under canopy with a view of the courthouse dome. Enjoy extra storage with a large 10’x20’ shed installed in 2025. Recent updates provide peace of mind: roof (2024), HVAC with heat pump (2025), tankless water heater (2024), expanded laundry/back room (2016), exterior painted (11/2025) and refinished floors (2016). Set atop a limestone hill just four blocks from the San Gabriel River, the home offers easy access to Blue Hole Park, San Gabriel Park, Lake Georgetown trails, and the vibrant courthouse square with its shops, restaurants, and year round festivals only 2 blocks from the home. Sway on the porch swing as native blooms and Georgetown’s iconic red poppies blaze across the yard, with blood oxfords erupting in color after the first rains. Come see this exceptional area and home for yourself today! This inviting residence is more than a house—it’s a living piece of Georgetown’s history, ready to welcome its next chapter.
