About This Property
Steeped in Texas history and timeless elegance, this extraordinary Governor's mansion was once home to Governor Beauford Jester, for whom Corsicana's local Jester Park was named. Rich in character and craftsmanship, this remarkable property carries a Historical Home Marker designation and offers a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Texas heritage. The main residence features 4 bedrooms and 3.1 baths, blending historic charm with thoughtful modern updates. The luxurious primary suite was beautifully remodeled by renowned builder Monty Brazell and includes a private bonus room filled with natural light, a convenient coffee bar, clawfoot tub, and an oversized walk-in closet. Throughout the home, you'll find exceptional details including original hardwood flooring, stunning original Rookwood tile in the breakfast room, abundant storage closets including a cedar-lined attic closet, a spacious laundry room plumbed for a sink, a basement with plenty of extra cool storage space, and an elevator providing convenient access between the first and second floors. Outside, the property continues to impress with a detached 3-car garage topped by a private guest apartment featuring 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. Entertain effortlessly in the stunning pool house, also built by Monty Brazell, showcasing a one-of-a-kind bar imported from England, a large space for games and entertaining, and generous storage space. The recently resurfaced inground pool with diving board creates the perfect backdrop for relaxing summer days. Beautifully landscaped gardens, a pergola with a tranquil water fountain, and expansive outdoor living spaces make this estate truly unforgettable. Additional features include treated lumber fencing on steel posts, copper gutters and downspouts, a chicken coop, and private well.
