We love a good "Before & After" transformation... don't you?

At our recently completed project on Austin Avenue, the home's original charm and character were undeniable, but the undersized kitchen and bathrooms left plenty of room for improvement.

With Matthew's thoughtful design approach, commitment to period-correct details, and focus on quality craftsmanship, we think the results speak for themselves!

How would you rate this remodel?

PROJECT UPDATE | Things are really starting to come together at 3909 Austin Avenue!

Custom cabinetry was just installed after we feathered in real, red oak wood flooring. Outside, a tidy new concrete patio will serve as the base for an unbelievable, outdoor living space.

Next to come, we'll get going with paint, set bathtubs, get started on tile, and install the super cool granite selections. Then, before we install KitchenAid commercial appliances and set both the KOHLER luxury plumbing fixtures and swanky Alder and Ore electrical fixtures, we'll sand and stain the floors for an ultra-authentic, high-end finish.

Stay tuned to this one! We think it's going to be really, really nice once it's completed!

If interested, we expect the final price point to land somewhere between $500,00 and $550,000. Contact Matthew McLeod for details!

SNEAK PEEK | A comprehensively remodeled A distinctive, comprehensive remodel in one of Waco's most coveted neighborhoods; this captivating home needs absolutely nothing but a new caretaker to cherish its exquisite old world charm, impressive grounds, exceptional layout, and captivating style.

Defined by its large lots, picture perfect sidewalks, and tree canopied streets, Waco's acclaimed Dean Highland neighborhood has enjoyed a renaissance like no other. What was once the Dean family farm is now home to some of Waco's most architecturally significant residences, a prominent church, exceptional school, and of course, our very own Waco Police Department.

Revered for its large lots and alleyways which provide a buffer between backyard neighbors, homes within the neighborhood are celebrated for this individuality and unique appeal with each property distinctive in its own right.

Here, after a "down to studs" remodel by Waco's noted design firm, The McLeod Company , this jewel of Dean Highland celebrates the hallmark style of the era but offers new systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and more), modern fixtures, and updated finish out throughout the home.

Boasting 2,192 square feet of well planned, exceptionally practical space, the home's three bedroom, two bathroom floorplan benefits from dual, sequestered living spaces, abundant natural light, rich materials, and a handsome color palette. Solving the age old issue with old homes, small bathrooms, a small kitchen, and non-existent closet space, The McLeod Company reimagined the floorplan so that now, storage is abundant, bathrooms are modern, and the kitchen is as spacious as many living rooms.

Outside, the rare, almost impossible to find two car garage is not only present and accounted for, but oversized and able to handle most modern cars. The .38 lot offers multiple patios and sitting areas while the mature trees, new fence, and sprawling backyard are ready to be enjoyed by all family members, two and four legged alike.

With Baylor University, downtown, and most attractions just minutes away, the Dean Highland neighborhood in the Heart of Waco is THE historical neighborhood of choice for many. Call or text Matthew (254.644.4095) today to learn more about this home and the magical setting that is Dean Highland!

SNEAK PEEK | Whether you're an investor looking for a safe, stable play with potential for exponential returns in the midst of current market turmoil or you're a homebuilder ready to capitalize on an exclusive subdivision poised for rapid growth; Waco's peerless neighborhood, The Enclave, is an attractive proposition well worth consideration.

Waco’s premier gated community, The Enclave, offers exceptional upside for builders and investors alike. Prized for its central location, walled approach inclusive of an impressive guard house (unique to Waco), and picturesque views of Lake Waco; the Enclave features the last remaining lake view lots for sale in ALL of Waco.

Here, a package of 13 lots poised for exponential growth presents the opportunity to acquire the vast majority of the remaining lots (only a single additional lot is for sale currently by an unaffiliated third party) at the perfect inception point as construction and sales are ramping up. Developed initially on the site of the former Lakewood Country Club, The Enclave’s first lot was sold in 2006 at a time when dense housing and a gated approach were foreign concepts to Wacoans. Today, with the growth of Baylor University, emergence of healthcare networks merging with local providers, and influx of new businesses moving to the cost effective but centrally located IH-35 corridor which runs through Waco, The Enclave is enjoying a renaissance and relative construction boom.

Just 10 minutes from Baylor University, the Enclave is in close proximity to Waco’s rapidly evolving downtown and the treasure that is Cameron Park; and is just a stone’s throw from Waco Regional Airport. The Enclave remains home to the only buildable lots in an exclusive sub-division with or without lake views. With sales of $1,000,000+ residences doubling in less than 5 years, demand for The Enclave’s characteristic features, amenities, location, and consistency of build-out is rapidly accelerating.

Whether you’re seeking a safe, savvy investment to hold and manage sales of individual lots or you’re seeking to build luxury homes in a sub-division rich with comparable sales and high demand, The Enclave offers a unique, once in a lifetime opportunity for exponential returns with very little effort.

Call or text Matthew (254.644.4095) today for further details and to learn how working directly with him can save you more than $50,000 when you acquire this tremendous opportunity. What's more, acquisition through Matthew entitles a buyer to future representation at deep discount by Waco and McLennan County's #1 selling Realtor.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity you don't want to miss! Reach out to Matthew today!

04/11/2026

SNEAK PEEK | Set in the treasured Cloisters neighborhood at Cameron Park , this standout, former Parade of Homes residence showcases avant garde design, distinctive style, and duende rarely found in Central Texas. Carefully curated by its single, well traveled owner, the home was commissioned without concern for cost with a single mandate: intrigue.

Four bedrooms, an office, and three bathrooms across nearly 3,400 square feet are highlighted by the home's soaring ceilings, walls of glass, and fantastically open floor plan. Conjuring an inviting, welcoming atmosphere that's light, airy, and spacious while still soliciting high drama, each room is intentional and defined in its purpose, yet seemingly integrated in the adjoining space. Few homes so seamlessly merge spaces, yielding an ultimate flexibility without feeling messy or worse, as if the home is just one, big, giant box.

Here, instead, each space is framed by an architectural element that's as subtle as it is sophisticated: the peak of the pool past the firepit, magnificent fireplace mantle, book matched cabinetry, and chic fixtures all play in concert to envelope the entrant in a serene calm that's curious if not inspired. The main floor hosts two bathrooms, an office, and the primary suite; thus requiring no other accommodation by most. Upstairs, three bedrooms and a bathroom round out guest, gym, or media space possibilities with stellar views and similarly stylish settings.

Outside, the half acre (plus) lot is tidy and private. Just steps from the best hiking and biking trails in Texas, this prized proximity to Cameron Park is worth the asking price alone. A private community tennis court and a short drive to Baylor University and downtown Waco ensure that there's no place more desirable in all of Wacotown.

A true 'one of one', this is an exceptionally unique opportunity to acquire a distinctive property well below the cost of duplication. Potential suitors are encouraged to call or text Matthew (254.644.4095) immediately. In doing so, be sure to ask how working directly with him can save you as much as $25,000 when you acquire this architecturally significant home.

Peerless in its design and its setting, a home of this caliber is exclusive in the truest sense. Inquire immediately.
