502 N Liberty Street, Victoria, TX 77901 (MLS # 600568)
A rare piece of Victoria's rich heritage awaits your ownership at 502 N. Liberty Street "” an iconic historic residence with deep roots in the community and a legacy that spans nearly a century and a half. This treasured property is known locally as the McNamara House, a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark first recognized in 1965. Built in the 1870s by William J. McNamara, a prominent cotton, wool, and hides dealer who also served on Victoria's town council, the home is an enduring example of Rural Victorian Gothic architecture in South Texas.
For decades following its construction, the McNamara family maintained the home as a cherished residence, before generously donating the property in 1959 to what would become the Victoria Regional Museum Association. The house has since served as an historical and fine arts museum, preserving original character, craftsmanship, and many period details. Located within Victoria's highly prized historic district, this home not only embodies Victorian-era design but also contributes to the narrative of Victoria. Just blocks from downtown's historic square, cultural attractions, and riverfront parks, the McNamara House has long been recognized as a centerpiece of community heritage.
