Description

This remarkable 0.1-acre commercial property in Calvert, TX, presents a unique investment opportunity. Listed by the State Historical Association, this building boasts an impressive history dating back to approximately 1870, when it served as the location of L.T. Fuller's company, one of Calvert's earliest industries. The structure features an iconic iron facade crafted by the renowned Mesker & Brothers Company of St. Louis, MO. The building's construction incorporated locally sourced iron ore, reflecting the area's rich industrial heritage. Original features abound, including original brick walls, bead board ceilings, and an 1870s water cistern. The original long-leaf Southern pine wood floors (with some historically appropriate restoration) and tall Victorian doors with ornate cast hardware showcase the building's exceptional craftsmanship. The high ceilings provide ample space and excellent natural ventilation, a testament to the building's thoughtful original design. Original display windows and cast iron hooks, remnants of oil ceiling lamp fixtures, add to the building's historical character. Modern safety upgrades include completely redone electrical wiring. The original standing stove remains as a unique feature. The square footage is estimated due to a lack of specification from the appraisal district. This property offers a rare chance to own a piece of Texas history and a potentially lucrative commercial venture.
