The architect and builder are unknown, and the house has been moved to a rural-type setting southwest of the central business district.","why_significant":"The nomination argues for architectural significance. Only a small number of houses of this type remain in Waxahachie, and this is described as one of the city's finest. It is particularly noteworthy for its detailing and the projecting two-story center bay.","narrative":"Dating to about 1890, this two-story frame house at 901 Cantrell sits on roughly two acres in Waxahachie, Texas. It is clad in weatherboard siding and has a gabled roof with composition shingles and box eaves trimmed with jig-sawn brackets. Windows are wood sash, double-hung, with two-over-two lights, and there are two single-door entrances with transoms. A six-bay porch with a shed roof runs along the south elevation, with squared wood balusters and square posts. An interior brick chimney has a corbeled cap, and the door and window surrounds carry classical detailing. The house was moved to its current site, a rural-type setting southwest of the central business district. It was recognized for its architecture: few houses of this type survive in Waxahachie, and this one is considered among the city's finest, especially for its detailing and its projecting two-story center bay. It remains in residential use and is in good condition.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":null,"criteria":[],"status_note":"Present condition is listed as good, and the present use is residential.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.768268-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/4/9689/40968904/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/86002360.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40968904","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q110001998"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/ellis-county/house-at-901-cantrell-86002360/"}
