About 948 Maple Street
Enjoy one of Lockhart's true grand dames! Built in 1932 on a rare .5-ac corner lot near Lockhart's historic core, this 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home offers approx 3,290 sq ft of living space, architectural distinction & exceptional restoration potential. A detached 2-car garage with flex space offers guest house/studio potential plus a 1,500 sq. ft workshop (30' x 50') w/ 220V power provides endless possibilities for artists, collectors, & hobbyists.
Defined by formal symmetry, full-height classical columns, brick construction and a standing-seam metal roof, the home retains much of its original character including oak hardwood floors, beadboard and shiplap walls & ceilings, original tilework, handcrafted cabinetry, and a striking pedimented entry. Double hung windows were installed throughout while preserving the home's timeless curb appeal.
The 1st floor features expansive living spaces, including a formal living room with gas fireplace, den, office, and an open-concept kitchen anchored by an oversized island topped with reclaimed 100 yr old barn wood. Original details include a 1932 corner cabinet and a rare two-story laundry chute connecting the upstairs hallway to the kitchen area below. Additional den and office space, totaling approx 600 sq ft, opens to a private courtyard. The powder room retains its original pink and blue tile.
Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, including a spacious primary bedroom with ensuite bathroom, massive upstairs closet plus a partially finished attic ideal for a studio, office, or storage. A rare basement, approx 1/2 the original home's footprint, contains an antique safe and laundry area.
The grounds are equally impressive, with a 50-foot hand-dug well, mature pecan, live oak, crepe myrtle, pomegranate, and bamboo, along with covered porches, patios & courtyards.
This property reflects the prosperity and ambition of Lockhart's early growth years - an extraordinary opportunity in one of Central Texas's most beloved small towns.
