It is the only T-plan house in Waxahachie built of brick. T-plan houses appeared in the Victorian period, when asymmetrical forms were favored, and few were built.","narrative":"Built around 1895, this one-story house at 703 South College in Waxahachie is a T-plan dwelling with load-bearing brick walls. It has a gabled roof covered in composition shingles and a shed-roofed porch that wraps around the north and south elevations, supported by turned wood posts. Windows have stone sills and brick hood moldings with stone detailing, and the gable end shows diapered brickwork. The house stands in a residential area south of the central business district. Its importance rests on architecture. T-plan houses first appeared during the Victorian period, when asymmetrical forms were favored, and they were built in limited numbers. This example is considered one of the best local representatives of the type. It is also the only T-plan house in Waxahachie constructed of brick, an unusual material for the form. The architect and builder are unknown.
