Huge reclaimed longleaf pine beams, once part of 1920s railroad trestles, stretch across the ceilings, joined by traditional wooden pegs, grounding the home in Texas history and craftsmanship.

One wing offers a secondary suite with fireplace, clawfoot tub, and French doors that open to the backyard.
