About this home
The Kennedy-Pierce Mansion is one of Taylor’s most iconic early-20th-century estates, a 1914 architectural showpiece offering historic grandeur and exceptional commercial potential. Built during Taylor’s cotton-era boom, the home was commissioned by Matthew Rankin Kennedy II and designed by noted architect Roy Leonidas Thomas, blending Neoclassical elegance with American Craftsman detail. The mansion features a full architectural basement, towering columns, original millwork, grand rooms, tall ceilings, and expansive windows that highlight the craftsmanship of the 1910s. Its generous scale and layout make it ideal for reception areas, offices, studios, meeting rooms, or boutique hospitality concepts. The half-acre corner lot offers ample space for parking, and outdoor gathering areas, and it sits directly across the street from the growing Temple College, perfect for visibility, foot traffic, and long-term commercial demand. Originally a private residence and now zoned commercial, the property transitions naturally into a wide range of uses. Whether envisioned as professional offices, a creative studio hub, a wellness or hospitality venue, or a landmark event space, the mansion presents a rare opportunity for a visionary buyer to create one of Taylor’s most memorable destinations. The home later became known as the Kennedy-Pierce Mansion, reflecting its long association with the Pierce family, one of Taylor’s most community-rooted names. Phillip Pierce, the first official Taylor Duck mascot, and his brother Sidney Pierce, the first Williamson County serviceman killed at Pearl Harbor, represent the deep civic legacy tied to this property. Just steps from Taylor’s revitalizing downtown and minutes from the expanding industrial corridor, the mansion’s historic presence, unmatched character, and prime location make it a standout opportunity. This home is the heartbeat of Taylor, ready for its next steward to bring this “old lady’s” heart back to life....
