San Marcos, TX 78666 1316 Belvin Street

Why settle for a home that looks like a farmhouse when you could own the real thing — right in the heart of downtown San Marcos? Creative types, dreamers, and downtown dwellers — this one’s for you. This historic gem blends character and location like nothing else. Walk or bike to the river, the Square, Texas State, festivals, and trails — including Prospect Park and the 700+ acres of the Purgatory Creek Natural Area just two blocks away. Inside, you’ll find tall ceilings, original wood floors ready to shine again, a cozy fireplace, and three flexible bedrooms — including one with its own door to the front porch (hello, home office). The updated kitchen adds charm and function with vaulted ceilings, beams, recessed lighting, and a screened-in porch for morning coffee. Set on nearly half an acre, the lot offers mature trees, flowering vines, a one-car garage/workshop, and a collection of outbuildings. This is a rare chance to own a slice of San Marcos history. Whether you’re looking to restore, reimagine, or just relax in your own backyard oasis — you’ve found something special at 1316 Belvin St.
