About this House
The oldest home in Magical Martindale! Built by the town doctor, Dr. Lawson for his family between 1898 and 1900 and located in the Martindale Historical District, this 2,994 square-foot Queen Anne Victorian has passed through only four owners in its history. Situated on a block-deep 0.689 acres with mature trees, the home features a wraparound covered porch, hardwood floors, natural woodwork, multiple living and dining areas, transoms throughout, and five fireplaces. A rare find for the area, the home also includes an unfinished basement, offering storage or future potential. The original carriage house now serves as a 2-car garage, adding to the property's historic character. City water and sewer and central HVAC add everyday convenience to the charm. The property also has a grey water system that keeps the giant trees happy. Walk across the street to the San Marcos River and all that Martindale has to offer. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Martindale history - and the possibilities are endless! Showings are by appointment only.
We estimate this home will sell faster than 98% nearby.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is not the place to go if you just moved to San Marcos i would highly recommend homeschooling if best, This school that my son goes to is an hot mess, the teachers do not care whatsoever about the kids i’ve seen the admin just ignore the students as i was enrolling my child into this school, the teachers let the kids be on their phone most of the time and doesn’t re direct at all towards the kids if the phones are out, this school is a whole circus i must add that when my child experience his 1st School shooter threat, he was frightened and that really says something about this horrendous school. Moving here and enrolling my some was a big mistake and coming from a big city to a so called “town” was one of the biggest mistakes that i have ever made in my life. i feel sorry for the ones who go here. I see the Reviews online about this school and it is true.Horrible Teachers, Unprofessional counselors, Admin's,Nurse's , etc.I regret moving here w/ my child.Parent Review1y ago - Dezavala Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy oldest daughter has attended both Bowie & Dezavala, and I have to say for her Dezavala is a better fit. I have always heard only glowing things about Bowie but it has its faults also. No school is perfect. I as a parent never felt really at home at Bowie. However,at Dezavala I am involved in both my daughters' classrooms, and have found a warm, open door policy. I say to parents with negative things to say, just BE INVOLVED! The help is needed & welcomed, and you can see for yourself how dedicated & hardworking most teachers are. Its like complaining about the government & not being a registered voter. Some parents have never even set foot in classrooms, even when required. If your childs teracher sees you as interested, engaged, and involved, your child will benefit, believe me. It is worth your time, and your childs school, Dezavala or otherwise, will only be better for it.Parent Review14y ago
