Steeped in Texas history and timeless elegance, this extraordinary Governor’s mansion was once home to Governor Beauford Jester, for whom Corsicana's local Jester Park was named. Rich in character and craftsmanship, this remarkable property carries a Historical Home Marker designation and offers a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Texas heritage. The main residence features 4 bedrooms and 3.1 baths, blending historic charm with thoughtful modern updates.

Throughout the home, you’ll find exceptional details including original hardwood flooring, stunning original Rookw ood tile in the breakfast room, abundant storage closets including a cedar-lined attic closet, a spacious laundry room plumbed for a sink, a basement with plenty of extra cool storage space, and an elevator providing convenient access between the first and second floors.
