About this apartment rental
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.

Our stay at the Green Door Lofts was great! We had tickets to a concert at the Waco Hippodrome, and it was amazing to be able to just walk next door! The lofts have a fantastic location on Austin Ave, walkable to anything you could want in the downtown area. Our rental through VRBO was easy, and we received great communication with Jim, the on-site owner. He also came by after we checked in to introduce himself and give us a walking tour of the whole property. We didn't have any problems during our stay, but I have no doubt he would have handled it quickly! A binder of information was in our loft to point us to restaurants and shops nearby, including Jim's favorites! There's nothing better than having local recommendations when there are so many choices around you. Menus were in the binder as well to give you an idea of the types of food nearby. The property only has 9 or 10 units, so it was very quiet and private. We didn't swim, but a private pool for the property was used by other guests. We enjoyed the small patio that overlooks Austin Ave. We found the cost to be very reasonable for the service, space, convenience and privacy we received. Overall, a great place to stay, and I wish we could have stayed longer! We would definitely stay here again!

On a scale of 1-5, the Green Door Lofts are a 10! Jim was an amazing host and even allowed us to check out later due to a late flight. Amazing hospitality and will be staying here and recommending the GDL to friends next time we are in Waco. Appreciate you Jim!

Jim is one of the finest hosts I have ever dealt with. His communication was timely, friendly and helpful. And he thinks of everything. The Green Door Lofts are beautiful and comfortable. I could not have enjoyed my stay more than I did. Highly recommended.
