The space
Comfortably Victorian! You don’t feel like your in a museum, you know these antiques are to enjoy and sit on! Each piece was handpicked for this house, now you can enjoy them too! Each room has antiques and decor to purchase, if you like it you can buy it!
It’s an “antique’rs” paradise! The house is in what I would call the Antique intersection, with fun small towns in every direction with great shops!
Perfect ladies get-away; Friends Trip; Antique Junkers weekend, Church Bible Study retreat or a romantic "Somewhere in time" escape; retreat from the BIG City life!
Each room a treasure to regale and admire, the house, it’s history and the family that helped build Plum Texas are in the walls of this fine Texas home! It was the town & the Morgan Family history that made me want to restore this beauty. Fully restored and now open for the public to enjoy her story, her history, her beauty. Our plan is to help usher her into the next 100 Years!
Come stay a spell and have a glass of tea on the porch, ohh if these walls could talk!
NO TV's - for a reason!
Ps: did we mention everything in the house is for sale, meaning all the antiques are purchasable. This can make the stay even better, “a stay & shop”….. Only very few items like the grandfather clocks NFS
P.s.s: not suitable for small children due to high level of antique breakables, and the outdoor pool, and an orig 1800s cabin at back of property. Too many things to entice a child ….
P.s.s.s. The pool has a hot tub , but it’s a COLD TUB, it’s not heated, heater will not work, so we ask that you NOT adjust or mess with pool equipment, other than the instruction we have by the door to turn the Polaris (a pool vacuum off or on while swimming)
P.s.s.s.s. This home has outdoor only, video surveillance at each door and driveway for your protection and the homes protection.
Guest access
Plenty of parking in the driveway and portacache’ (portache’ is a covered drive through between house and garage). This house has steps to each door, please note for anyone with difficulty with stairs or steps!!
Plum Tx is tiny, like really tiny.... but it’s quiet, peaceful, small, just the right place to get away, decompress, relax by the pool! Feel like you stepped back in time while staying here! And we are a quick 5 min drive to LaGrange Texas (stores. Food, shopping)
Pool: ** winter months we cover the pool ( Nov - Feb) **
The town was bustling the the late 1800’s complete with a saloon , 2 mercantile stores, a farm implements store, a cotton gin and post office. All are long gone, except the post office & a few houses! Plum is 5 min to Lagrange, 15 to SMITHVILLE, 25 to Round Top...perfect location for ANTIQUE lovers or to just get away and feel like your walked into your 2nd home!
Other things to note
Your coming here for a one stop shop, literally! To rest, relax, rejuvenate and maybe to buy some Central Texas antique treasures! Or relax by the vintage pool ( installed in the early 80s/ pools not modern or new its basic, but cool and refreshing) *** note during winter months we cover the pool **. Pool has a heater but it’s non working, so hot tub is a “COLD DUNK”, please DO NOT attempt to maneuver pool heating unit, will cause issues, and extra fee’s $350 charges.
This is a one of a kind house, full of antiques hand selected, and just about everything is purchasable! Your reading correctly, items can be purchased ( and that gives me great joy to go shop again to replace it!).... So feel free to inquire @ items of interest! Its our unique twist on an Antiquer's Air BnB
You come here to relax. This house is ‘off the Beaten path’ This is a small pocket right outside Lagrange, so no business to distract you. The house is the attraction & the history is fascinating. So come create new stories with your friends at The Morgan House Texas.
Bring a bottle of wine, or a book, sit by the pool or a small nook, and breathe deep and relax! Enjoy the outside, we have a BBQ pit for your use ( just please clean up when done!). We try to leave you with a few special treats inside for your consumption, from a local Plum Texas, organic Gardner ( Jan makes the best jellies, jams and scones ever!) she lives right down the road - we want you to know how special PLUM TEXAS is and its people!
Great internet access for those who cant put their phone down ( but we do encourage you try!) we have board games upstairs for you to 'try' -- NO TV's in the house (for a reason) !
Your home when here! Don't take our word for it- come see for yourself!
