A beautifully restored 1912 Arts & Crafts home in the Corsicana Carriage District, The Writers House is available for full house rental. Designated as a retreat for writers as part of the Corsicana creative community, it can now be rented by anyone who appreciates an updated authentically restored grand home. This 2,300 square-foot two-story house with a wrap-around porch was said to have been designed by the Gage Architectural Firm of Dallas. It is fully furnished with beautiful antiques. The restored antique lighting and rich wood trim are original.
The first floor of the home features a living room, music room with baby grand piano, wood-paneled dining room with library filled with books on art and literature, breakfast room, fully stocked kitchen, a full bathroom with shower and laundry room with washer and dryer,
Three bedrooms on the second floor each include a desk, full-sized bed and closet. Two full bathrooms are accessed from the hallway. What once was part of a sleeping porch is now a tiny nook with a tiny desk. All bedding, linens and kitchen appliances are provided. The central cooling and heating are brand new. The five fireplaces are now only decorative, not to be used.
Authentically restoring and furnishing The Writers House has allowed this gem of the Corsicana Carriage District to shine in its original warmth and beauty. It is now open for booking.
