What makes this property unique

This home sits at the corner of Downtown Wylie, the original hub of the city built in the 1870s. Now, the olde downtown is a quaint strip, still featuring original 100 yr old buildings where you can spend the day jumping from coffee to lunch to antiquing to furniture shopping to the gym to yogurt, then dinner. Wylie was rated #1 city in the nation for families by Forbes magazine in 2016! Also, a top 20 city rated in Money magazine. True quaint, country atmosphere with lots to offer our visitors! Lot's of fast food and restaurants off the nearby highway as well.

Our reception building, paved walkway, gazebo and chair/table package makes the Olde House one of the most unique offerings for a small, boutique wedding in a historic setting. It comes equipment with air-conditioning / heating, 4 bay doors and tables, chairs, coolers and event equipment.
