Discover a beautifully transformed 1916 downtown mansion that perfectly blends historic charm with modern sophistication. Located just blocks from the Texas State Capitol in the prestigious Judges Hill Neighborhood, this ~6,000 SF property offers unparalleled potential. Currently operated as a luxury short-term rental, the building features 7 unique suites, including 4 extra-large units with two sleeping areas each, a spacious junior suite, and two queen rooms, capable of accommodating up to 24 guests.
