Gloria Manor - 2 blocks to Magnolia & 3 mins to BU
Beautifully renovated 3bd/2.5bath early 1900s home with a pool (heated upon request) located 2 blocks from Magnolia and 3 mins to Baylor University.
The nearly 1800sqft home was beautifully renovated in late 2023. The Manor is open, warm and inviting with a very comfortably designed living area that opens into the kitchen & dining areas. Beyond the eat-in kitchen you`ll find a warm sun-filled reading / breakfast nook overlooking the backyard and outdoor dining areas.
The Manor boasts two bedrooms with King Beds & en-suite baths. The 3rd bedroom is filled with lots of natural light and two twin beds.
Outdoors you will find a beautifully landscaped yard surrounding the all-new plunge pool. Snuggle up on the outdoor loveseats, kickback and relax by the pool, warm up around the firepit, or gather around the dinner table under the pergola for a family meal.
You`ll enjoy total privacy in this fully fenced property. The backyard is enclosed by a privacy fence and the front with a wrought iron fence.
The property is located in a downtown/urban area just 2 blocks from Magnolia and a few mins from Baylor University. Thus, the home is located within 1-2 miles of Interstate 35.
The neighborhood is a transitioning area with many of the homes having been renovated and converted to short-term rentals while some other homes have remain occupied by long-term residents and largely unaffected by the recent economic growth in Waco. The immediate area round property includes more than 20 other short term rentals.
The property is fully fenced for your added comfort and security.
Parking is at the rear of the backyard accessible via the alley.
The pool is a 10 x 20 plunge pool which means its not deep enough for diving, flips, etc.
Due to very high energy consumption and costs, the pool is heated upon request for a period of 12 hours for a $75 fee.
If you would like the pool heated for the duration of your stay, please reach out prior to booking and we can discuss a price that seems fair based on your length of stay. Please do not bring indoor furniture or linens and towels outdoors.
Pets are strictly prohibited on the premises.
Smoking or Vaping is not permitted inside the property. If you wish to smoke or vape, please stay at lest 25ft from the home and make sure all doors and windows are closed.

We planned a weekend trip to Waco for my mother in-law’s 75th birthday. This home was perfect for the 4 of us. The home was laid out nicely, it was furnished and decorated beautifully and was very comfortable. It’s close to the Magnolia Silos, so it makes visiting there easy. We enjoyed one afternoon out by the pool and watched some March Madness Basketball on the back patio. It would definitely stay here again or recommend it to family and friends.
This property is an excellent location for walking to downtown Waco and Baylor. Communication with the host was excellent and the house was well appointed. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to staying again on our next trip to Waco!
Great place to stay, easily walkable to magnolia. Relatively close to many fun restaurants and activities. The home was comfortable and met all of our needs. Would recommend.
Everything was great. The communication with the host was very easy and helpful. When we arrived the house was clean and everything we needed was there. The pool was an excellent way to cool off after walking around.
