About this home

Historical Charm Meets Modern Luxury in La Grange! Welcome to the iconic Lenert House—a beautifully restored High Victorian Italianate estate that blends 19th-century grandeur and modern luxury. Built in 1894 by Albert and Amelia Lenert, who immigrated to Fayette County from Germany as children in the 1850s, this 2-story home was lovingly held by the original family until 1979. Set on a sprawling fully fenced 1.3-acre estate in the heart of the La Grange Historical District, this breathtaking property is a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark and has a F7+ Class CD rating for its high-quality residential improvements. The spacious 3972 sf home features 4 bedrooms and 3 fully remodeled bathrooms, including a stunning main-floor primary suite with a large walk-in closet, plus two huge bedrooms upstairs. The interior is defined by details like soaring 14-foot ceilings, solid oak pocket doors, and gorgeous oak, Brazilian walnut, and original pine floors. A fully remodeled, sun-lit kitchen with granite counters and stainless-steel appliances flows perfectly into expansive, window-lined living and family rooms. A dedicated office space offers custom floor-to-ceiling bookcases. The ambiance extends outdoors with 2 large inset porches and a large patio. The fully enclosed detached 2 car garage is nearby. The unmatched history of the property shines through with its fine-milled details, and its unique architectural affects. Its spacious 1.3-acre estate, Victorian grace and rich history make this extraordinary home perfect for everyday living, intimate gatherings, or large festive events. The possibilities are endless!
