Historic 1920s Waco Retreat w/ Hot Tub, Firepit & Game Room – Sleeps 10

Slow Down & Stay Awhile in Our Historic Waco Retreat

Welcome to Homan Haven, where 1920s soul meets modern, intentional design. Located in the Heart of Texas, this beautifully restored historic home offers that sought-after "Fixer Upper" charm you’ve seen on screen, right here in person. Whether you're in town to shop the Silos, cheer on the Bears, or simply reconnect with family, this is your perfect home base.

The Vibe:
We kept the original character—the high ceilings and big windows—and added just the right amount of modern luxury. It’s airy, intentional, and designed for slow mornings and long conversations.

Space to Breathe: With 3 bedrooms and 4 comfy beds, there’s room for the whole family (up to 8 guests) to find their own corner.

Morning Rituals: Walk just up the street to For Keeps Coffee & Bakery for a latte, then head back to enjoy the breeze on our inviting front porch.

Thoughtful Details: From the Baylor-ready location to the designer finishes, every inch of this home was curated with your comfort in mind.

Close to the Pulse of Waco

You’re tucked away in a quiet spot, but never far from the action:

Magnolia Silos: A quick 10-minute drive for shopping and strolls.

Baylor University: Minutes from campus—perfect for graduation or game day.

Local Fun: 5 minutes to the Extraco Events Center for local events and flavor.

Restful Retreats

The Master: 1 King Bed – Designed for the ultimate Sunday morning sleep-in.

Guest Suite: 1 Queen Bed – Calm, cozy, and perfectly styled.

The Bunkroom: 2 Full Beds – A nostalgic, comfortable space for friends or kids.

Life at the Haven:

Relaxed Tech: High-speed 601 Mbps Wi-Fi (if you must check your emails).

Total Convenience: Full kitchen, in-unit laundry, and easy smart-lock entry.

Texas Evenings: Grab a drink and head to the backyard to sit under the glow of the string lights.

A fabulous property that worked perfectly for our group. We couldn’t take advantage of the fun backyard because the heat was too much for our non-Texas bodies, but I would absolutely come back in the fall or spring to hang out at the fire pit. Also, I want the dining room table at my house. It’s gorgeous!The decor was perfection, the communication prompt, the AC plentiful. Local friends came to visit and are looking forward to recommending the house for visiting family. 5 stars!
