About this property

Authentic German Sunday House! Location, Outdoor Fireplace & Upscale Decor!

Up to four can enjoy this quiet amenity-rich, centrally located home with a back yard laden with ivy-covered trees. Historic Sunday House, quiet but conveniently located to the town's attractions within walking distance. Well-equipped kitchen for cooking needs as well as an outdoor barbecue grill. Secluded back yard includes an outdoor fireplace with comfortable Adirondack chairs for relaxing lounging. High-speed wifi internet provided, along with cable TV. Decorated in a sophisticated style reminiscent of Architectural Digest.

Flagstone Sunday House was built around 1900. The German Emigration Company issued lot number 369 to Maria Elisa Dattner in the latter part of 1846. The house was completely restored and decorated for use as a bed and breakfast cottage in 2011. While respecting all of the historical importance of the house, no stone has been left unturned when it comes to providing guests with all the touches today's travelers enjoy.

You will appreciate the smart style and attention to detail as soon as you open the front door The front room, an enclosed sleeping porch, offers two built-in twin beds, perfect for turning a trip for two into a getaway for three or four! Next you enter the gracious den which boasts sophisticated style reminiscent of Architectural Digest! Above the drawing table you will find a unique touch…the white guest board, a large framed artist's message board for you to share a drawing, a kind word, a poem or just a passing thought with the owners and future guests. What a fun touch, particularly since the owner is an artist!

The downstairs also offers a full kitchen and dining area, plus a bathroom with a charming tiled shower. Upstairs is the main king-sized bedroom, clothed in a soothing white color scheme. The bathroom for this bedroom is at the bottom of the stairs. (Keep in mind that part of this home's charm is its multi-level design…BUT that does mean authentic, slightly narrow stairs. Only reserve this cottage if you are comfortable with stairs.)

As fabulous as all this is, the thing that will bring you back time and time again to Flagstone Sunday House may be the amazing back yard. Off the dining room, you will find a large deck with sitting areas and a sweeping staircase leading down to the ivy-covered lawn. Relax in the cool weather with our limestone fireplace. Take a little time from life's cares to walk among the branches, watch the birds, and put your feet up for a bit With all these great amenities plus an excellent location just one block from Main Street and 3-4 blocks to the heart of shopping, Flagstone Sunday House is a treasured retreat!

We couldn't have asked for a better host! Amelia is super responsive and gracious, even letting us change our date at the last minute due to the ice storm. Although we weren't able to meet in person, I felt like I was communicating with a true friend!This historic Sunday house is indeed a treasure, and we enjoyed its warmth and interesting, eclectic furnishings. The kitchen is well-provisioned, and the outdoor areas are welcoming also. And only a block off of Main Street!We were joined by Baylor friends of 50 years, and this was the perfect place to get together. Can't recommend enough!

Very unique house

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the German Sunday House. The only caution I'd give is if you're older or not in good health, the narrow stairs and low ceilings could be a challenge. We had a great time.

Sunday House Weekend Getaway

My husband, son and I stayed at Flagstone Sunday house for a quick weekend getaway. The home was cozy and lovely. The back area was the perfect place for morning coffee and listening to the birds. Very peaceful and relaxing. The hosts were attentive, helpful and provided coffee and snacks upon arrival. The area is nice and quiet , which we appreciated. It was ideal for a family trip!

About the host

Host profile image
A perfectionist with a ready smile for just about anyone! Love people, cooking, biking, gardening, volunteering and TENNIS! I am always busy and I wouldn't have it any other way!

Why they chose this property

I bought the Sunday House because it has charm and historical significance. It's one of seven of the original German immigration Sunday Houses. But best of all, is the stunning back yard!

What makes this property unique

The location, the location, the location! Unbelievable backyard, with terraced flagstone throughout and large limestone fireplace. This kind of property just does not come up for sale very often because it's one that everyone wants...
