Neighborhood

Escape to the quiet charm of McGregor, Texas. This home sits on a peaceful stretch of countryside surrounded by open skies, mature trees, and plenty of space to unwind. Guests love the area for its slow pace, privacy, and true small-town Texas atmosphere. Just minutes from downtown McGregor, you’ll find a growing mix of local favorites — small cafés, mom-and-pop restaurants, a taproom, and a classic Texas meat market. It’s the kind of place where people wave as they pass and the evenings are calm and star-filled. Even better, you’re only 20–25 minutes from Downtown Waco, making it easy to explore top attractions like Magnolia Market at the Silos, Baylor University, the Dr. Pepper Museum, Cameron Park Zoo, and the riverwalk. Guests can enjoy all the excitement of Waco during the day, then come home to the peace and privacy of a countryside retreat. Nature lovers will appreciate being close to Mother Neff State Park, perfect for hiking, picnics, and outdoor exploring. And with quick access to major roads, this home makes an excellent hub for visiting Central Texas — close to the action, but far from the noise. Whether you’re planning a relaxing getaway, a family stay, or a quiet work-from-home retreat, this location offers the best of both worlds: serenity on the property, with small-town conveniences and Waco’s attractions just a short drive away.
