About this property

Green Door Lofts-Urban Cowboy - Silos/Downtown

Green Door Lofts, featured on Fixer Upper Urban Loft Challenge and referred to as "Funky Town" by Chip, is a 9-unit luxury loft complex in the heart of Waco's bustling Silo District. We are next door to the historic Hippodrome Dinner Theater and steps away from eclectic shops, antique stores, wine tasting rooms, and live music. Magnolia Market is an easy walk away, or take the free trolley that stops outside. Each loft is crafted with a unique flair and offers a distinct experience.

The Urban Cowboy Loft is a fun, unique loft home where Texas western style and urban living merge into a fun, funky vibe. A pair of French doors overlook a quiet heated courtyard pool. Skylights bathe the living room in natural light, making it the perfect place to relax. The master bedroom boasts a king-sized bed with pressed, triple-sheeted linens. In the living room there is wall-mounted, queen-sized Murphy bed. The loft has an in-unit washer/dryer. Guests will also love the fully-equipped kitchen, complete with coffee, tea, and of course my mom's cinnamon rolls. Entertainment includes a large screen SmartTV with Direct TV/Netflix. Cool LED lighting in the living room and bedroom to help set the mood for any occasion.

The building's courtyard has a HEATED POOL with lounge chairs and tables. The mezzanine deck overlooks the avenue below - perfect for people watching!

A unique code for keyless entry makes check-in and check-out flexible and convenient. The owner lives on-site and can be reached by cell phone any time. We're happy to provide suggestions for local eateries and activities, in addition to the loft's information guide.

Green Door Lofts gets its name from the famous green door that welcomes residents into the courtyard. The green door is also referred to locally as the Hobbit Door. Immediately next door to the Hippodrome theater, the door serves as a backdrop for visitors on the street stopping and posing for selfies. Countless brides have ventured to the door for their bridal portraits. We love it!! This 9 unit complex is located on a trendy street that links the historic old homes of Waco with the parks along the Brazos River. Next door is the iconic Waco Hippodrome, where you can grab dinner and an adult beverage while watching a play, concert, or show. Waco’s free trolley stops in front of the loft before continuing to the Silos and other downtown shops.

A few blocks away is Cameron Park, a 416-acre stretch of land with hike and bike trails and the Waco Zoo. We are also located within five minutes of Baylor's McLane Stadium. On game days, Baylor’s free shuttle that runs between downtown and the stadium is only a couple blocks away.

Downtown Waco has plenty of free street parking and Ubers are readily available. The loft is walking distance to shops and restaurants.

The Urban Cowboy Loft is on the second floor and accessed only by stairs. If this is an issue, please consider our 3 bedroom listing on the first floor. The Urban Cowboy Loft is immediately adjacent to the Retro Loft.
- For our guests we request quiet hours from 10p-7a
Although children are welcome, please note the Green Door Lofts are not "child-proofed"

Great location and safe
Located downtown just a couple of blocks from Magnolia Silos. Lots of restaurants nearby and garage parking. Felt very safe! Came back from Baylor game and ran across the street to eat at Portofino’s! So convenient! Check in process was easy and owner lives on site. Condo was very clean and stocked with water, coffee, and a batch of homemade cinnamon rolls! Will stay here again!
