Historic Home: Walking distance to historic square, beach, & hiking trail!


Heavenhill, built in the 1890s, is not your typical home away from home! Quirky and quiet yet so close to the square it is a perfect set up for a family, girls' weekend, or even for writers and journalists. Shelbie, an interior designer and historic preservationist, wanted to keep the historic integrity of the home yet make it comfortable for modern times.

The cottage boasts two bedrooms (Gallery Room: full Bed and Quilt Room: two twin beds) with two full bathrooms including a fully equipped kitchen, living room, and pantry/utility room with a washer and dryer. An old, enormous pecan tree shades the comfortable back porch stocked with quality rocking chairs and a patio with a picnic table. If you like to cook out…well there is also a grill for anyone to use!

The base prices is for double occupancy. Additional guests’ fee is $25/guest/night plus hotel tax. Please make sure to specify the correct number of guests for your visit. Children of all ages are considered an additional guest.

Heavenhill is in walking distance to Hewlett Park and the City Beach (seriously just MINUTES!). If you like antiquing, then you are in luck! Heavenhill & Witherspoon’s Antique Mall share backyards! Located just 3 blocks from the square, you can do almost everything by foot or bike! If you like to take long walks or ride your bike then you can hop on “The Moments in Time” hike and bike trail which is right in front of Hh!

I have exterior security cameras placed around the premises. I do not have any cameras inside the cottage.

Sweet little getaway
My husband and I brought our one year old for a little getaway. Shelbie’s house is the perfect spot to step back in time and enjoy the beauty around you. It also is in a fantastic location for anything you have planned. We were able to walk everywhere and explore the area easily. Would highly recommend Shelbie’s place!

Charming house, perfect location
What a great find! The house was wonderful. Historical but with all the modern conveniences. The record player was a nice touch for example. The location was perfect too. Steps away from the public beach; 5 minutes away from the town square and all the shops and restaurants. Highly recommend!

Wedding reception
When we arrived, the home and property were exactly as advertised. We loved that it was unique, rustic and eclectic compared to most properties we've stayed. Very quiet neighborhood w/a relaxing back patio. We enjoyed the rocking chairs on the back patio in the morning. The owner communicated all we needed for our stay and was very attentive. Excellent stay!

Hometown 4th of July
We had a wonderful 4th of July weekend! Granbury has all the events for a fun patriotic 4th. The Heavenhill cottage was adorable, historical, quaint, charming, lovely, well appointed and within walking distance. The details in its restoration are amazing and the modern bathrooms are perfect! Shelbie was a wonderful and gracious hostess.
