A RARE PIECE OF SMITHVILLE HISTORY! Set on a prominent corner in the heart of Smithville’s historic district, this distinctive residence is a remarkable expression of period craftsmanship and timeless architectural character. Historically known as the Haynie House, the home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Smithville’s architectural heritage. From the street, the home’s distinctive gabled design, tall windows, front porch, ornamental entry door, and expansive covered L-shaped porch immediately capture attention. The side porch is a signature feature, showcasing an impressive procession of ornate classical columns with decorative capitals, traditional turned railing and beadboard ceiling while overlooking mature landscaping. Inside, graciously proportioned rooms showcase details rarely found in today’s homes, including beautiful wood floors, divided-light windows, paneled wood doors, detailed woodwork, decorative transoms, stained-glass doors and beadboard wainscoting. Two distinctive fireplaces add to the home’s character, including impressive carved wood mantels featuring ornate columns, mirrors, intricate detailing, blue decorative tile and cast-iron inserts. The spacious primary suite includes its own fireplace and walk-in closet, while the adjoining bath features a charming clawfoot tub. A long-enclosed sunroom extends the living space with abundant windows, beadboard ceiling, utility sink and washer/dryer connections. The substantial detached two-story garage provides exceptional flexibility with alley access, multiple overhead doors, AC and generous garage/workshop space. The finished upper level features a large open room, full bath, separate HVAC, storage, sink/cabinet area and laundry facilities—ideal for guests, a studio, office, hobbies or additional flexible living space. Towering pecan trees, established azaleas, camellias and a magnolia enhance the grounds. History, craftsmanship and character remain at the forefront of this property
