About this property

For the first time in over 50 years, this iconic Lubbock home is on the market. This is your rare opportunity to own a piece of Lubbock's history with this beautifully preserved home brimming with character and timeless elegance. The original hardwood floors are in pristine condition and the antique Sarouk rugs that came with the property convey with it again. The vintage fixtures (the doorknobs and hardware throughout the house are 24 karat gold plated) and enchanting rooms invite you in as you walk through arched doorways that lead you in to an elegant dining room on one side or a stunning formal living room on the other. The living room opens to the most delightful sun room, full of charm and with lovely views of the Texas Tech campus. The kitchen has marble countertops, high end appliances, and more pleasing views of Tech and other gorgeous 19th St homes. Beyond the kitchen, the den will captivate you with its handsome wood paneling, marble fireplace designed by Dean Pierce, and bookshelves that make you want to snuggle in by the fireplace in winter or open the door to the patio and enjoy the lush and tree covered backyard in summer. The main house has 3 bedrooms, 4 baths, a 2 car garage, and in back there is an efficiency apartment that can be rented or used for guests. There is also a very large space above the garage that can be converted into another apartment, a gym, playroom, or office. The backyard has plenty of room to connect the detached garage if you want to add a larger utility and ground floor primary suite. There is also a perfect spot for a pool if that's on your wish list. This house is a dream and you likely won't get this opportunity again for another half century. So bring your pre-approved buyers and act fast for your chance at this Lubbock landmark located on almost half an acre on prestigious 19th Street, Lubbock's welcoming grand boulevard across from Texas Tech.
