Timeless Queen Anne Treasure Steps from Texas A&M. Discover a piece of Aggieland history in this beautiful Queen Anne-style residence, originally built in 1905 on the Texas A&M campus. Relocated in 1965 by English professor Richard Ballinger, this remarkable home is set on a half-acre lot framed by majestic oaks and enclosed by a charming picket fence, the property offers both beauty and presence. The original wood cladding and architectural details speak to the craftsmanship of a bygone era. Inside, original hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and period finishes throughout transport you back in time. With 5 spacious bedrooms and 3 bathrooms arranged in a thoughtful split floor plan, this home provides flexibility for modern living. Whether you envision it as a full-time residence, a stately second home, or a perfect Game Day getaway, it’s ideal for hosting gatherings and entertaining guests. Notable past residents include Texas A&M dignitaries such as D. W. Spence (Dean of Engineering, 1916), O. E. Chastain (Professor of History, 1917), and Francis C. Bolton, who served as department head, vice president, and ultimately president of the university (1948–1950). Their legacy lives on within the walls of this distinguished home. The expansive yard offers garden space and serene views beneath the shade of towering oaks—an idyllic retreat right in town. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own this historic gem with deep roots in Texas A&M tradition and College Station history.
