About this property
The Palms of Del Rio-History at Its Best
Enjoy modern convenience in a historical setting. This 1889 home boasts four bedrooms, a movie room, spa room, as well as a modern kitchen. View the hand-painted tile from Southern Mexico (original to the home), soak in a claw foot tub, and catch a game of cards in our game room. We have it all!
This historical home has 5 bathrooms, each with a tub. Two tubs in the lower level of the home have shower attachments. The two tubs upstairs have hand held shower attachments (please see the pictures). We have worked hard to maintain the historical importance of this 1889 home, from the hand painted tile to the original tongue in groove floors on the second floor. Please do not expect a brand new space or new furniture. Much of the home has been decorated using antiques from our home and those from around the area. This home is over 5,000 square foot, with high ceilings and large gathering spaces. A maximum of 9 guests are allowed, unless you make prior arrangements.
We hope you enjoy this unique and historical home!
