Own a unique piece of Texas History…The Luckett House and former site of the Bastrop Military Institute. Built in 1892 by Dr. H.P. Luckett, this Queen Anne style home has housed only three families prior to its current restoration. It is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places and is a Texas Historic Landmark. Located on arguably Bastrop’s most historic street, Church Street, this gem has been carefully renovated over the last year to not only keep it historically significant, but also to enhance the modern living experience. The renovation included replacement of all four central air conditioner units; new sheetrock in most rooms; added traditional-style lighting; complete interior and exterior paint; new butler’s pantry, walk-in pantry and laundry room via porch conversions; and a stunning modern primary bathroom with large frameless shower, soaking tub, and walk-in closet. The kitchen includes a 48” commercial Thermador range and rare long leaf pine cabinets to match the original long leaf pine flooring throughout the house. The first floor includes large living room, large parlor, large dining room, intimate library, full bath, kitchen, butler’s pantry and two walk-in pantries. The second floor includes four large bedrooms, three bathrooms, a primary bedroom sitting room and laundry room. Sizable first and second floor porches wrap around the southeast corner of the home. There are three original fireplaces in the living room, parlor and library. The home is set amongst mature pecan and other trees on almost one acre. The three car detached garage includes approximately 700 sf of extra space for a workshop and storage. Own this significant symbol of Texas history with modern conveniences in the center of Old Town Bastrop. Note that the 0.906 acre lot is being subdivided and this sale will include 0.527 acres of land. The second 0.379 acre lot facing Buttonwood St. may be purchased by Buyer for an additional $175,000.
