Step Back in Time with This Historic Queen Anne Victorian on Nearly an Acre in Howe, Texas. This one-of-a-kind gem, built in the early 1900s for Dr. J.O. Matthews and later owned by Dr. Joseph Lafayette Shelley, beautifully blends timeless character with modern comforts. Nestled on a spacious lot just off of Hwy 5—now Denny Street—this charming home offers peaceful country living with city conveniences just 20 minutes from both McKinney and Sherman. The inviting wraparound front porch is the perfect spot to enjoy a sunrise coffee or take in the sunset views. Inside, you''ll find hardwood flooring that flows through the living room and formal dining room, each with its own mock fireplace, adding to the charm of the room. The main level offers a primary bedroom with bath, as well as a secondary bedroom and an additional full bath. From the foyer, a staircase leads to an expansive upstairs retreat—currently configured as a large bonus room, two additional bedrooms, and full bath. The current owner previously partitioned the space to create two bedrooms upstairs. Recent upgrades by previous owners include updated electrical, plumbing, and central HVAC, while the current owner has lovingly maintained the historic details throughout. The property features a 62'' x 17'' metal workshop and a 26'' x 18'' detached garage—perfect for hobbyists, storage, or additional workspace. Don''t miss this opportunity to own a piece of Howe history and enjoy a lifestyle that’s truly special.
