New! Cheerful cottage filled with art and books in the heart of Waxahachie

Welcome to the Little House of Books! This luxe two bedroom, 1 bathroom house has the best of both worlds. It is located in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance of Little Creek Trail and Chapman Park and yet is adjacent to bustling Highway 77 and all of its shops and restaurants. It's a three minute drive to Waxahachie's iconic dowtown square.

Guests can enjoy an art- and book-filled retreat with cozy seating for reading after a busy wedding, girls' night out or work trip. This house sleeps up to four, making it ideal for couples and families or small group seeking a taste of the Crepe Myrtle Capital of Texas.

This 1950s house has all of the charm you would expect in a Waxahachie home. Original hardwood floors, four over four windows and elegant molding. Each bedroom in kitted out with luxurious linens, ample closet space and ceiling fans.

The kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, large pantry with a few basic staples and a built-in wooden ironing board original to the house. The house also has a full sized washer and dryer in the laundry room, as well as a spacious fenced backyard for soaking up the Texas sun.

Cozy Cottage stay
The property was very clean and felt like home as soon as we walked through the door. Neighborhood was mostly quiet and close to the highway so it made for easy access to the property and beyond. Highly recommend staying here

Clean, great location and we loved the books!
This property was clean, stocked well with the things you need, such as kitchen appliances and equipment, plenty of towels and wash cloths. The only drawback was the mattresses on beds were uncomfortable and the thermostat kept changing temperature to some kind of automated program already installed. Overall we were pleased with the home.

Ultra clean home
Fantastic stay! The house felt cozy and safe. It was extraordinarily clean. We’ll certainly book again on our next trip. It’s also centrally located so you’re a short drive from a major grocery store and great shopping.

Cute home
My husband and I enjoyed our stay while in town for an event we host. Reminded me of my great-grandparents home. Loved having a full kitchen and washer/dryer. Great water pressure and lots of hot water. Even though it is small, it had everything we needed. Convenient location close to HEB and :)Taco Casa! About a 10-15min drive to TX Motorplex! The neighborhood was mostly quiet except for the house 2 doors down… but I would definitely rent again to avoid hotel living!

Great stay
My family united over the Texas Country Reporter Festival. My daughter & husband shared a booth, so the rest of the family came to visit! Some did not stay with us, but the house gave us a great get together space all our own. It was immaculate and had everything we needed plus more! The kids even had a little place to play! The AC was on when we got there and was perfect! My girls loved the book selection, even though we didn’t have time to read! Great place & would definitely stay again!

Loved the Little Book House
We loved the laid back vibe from this house. It was decorated beautifully! I was pleasantly surprised with the extras provided such as coffee, tea, popcorn, and oatmeal. It was very clean and the beds were comfortable. Very easy to check in and very conveniently located to downtown (5 minutes) with a quiet neighborhood and large backyard. We would definitely stay here again.
