Perhaps the most coveted of a spectacularly small group of mid-century modern homes scattered across Waco, this peerless property showcases the hallmark design elements and distinctive, restrained design which makes these exceptionally rare properties so sought after. The former residence of acclaimed architect Robert S. Bennett, who penned the majority of Waco's MCM homes, the 2,104 square foot home was constructed in 1978 by Mr. Bennett and his sons.

The former residence of acclaimed architect Robert S. Bennett, who penned the majority of Waco's MCM homes, the 2,104 square foot home was constructed in 1978 by Mr. Bennett and his sons. Overlooking Landon Branch, which feeds Lake Waco, the three bedroom, two bathroom home is secluded, private, and set amongst the trees in dramatic fashion. Benefitting from two living areas, a formal dining room, and large, den like mudroom, the flexible floorplan well serves modern needs while the aesthetic reclaims the past with many period elements preserved while the updates, which exceeded $200,000 in cost, were carefully selected to work in unison with original elements. Beneath the home, a wrap around deck is accessible via a new staircase or inclined deck where a large work shop offers exceptional storage or even potential conversion to guest quarters. Beyond the deck, the property encompasses .38 acres of wooded ravine just waiting to be explored or even transformed into a spectacular outdoor space. Certainly one of the most architecturally significant homes in Waco, this distinctive property is now offered for an approachable price in a move-in ready condition. Please call or text to secure your showing of this one of a kind Waco icon.
