About this property

Green Door Lofts-Bo Ho Loft 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 Bo Ho Loft is a fun, unique loft home where Magnolia style mixes up with Bo Ho Chic to create a fun, funky urban vibe. There are two bedrooms, each with a comfy king-sized bed with pressed, triple-sheeted linens. There is a private balcony that has a view of the Silos. 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 65 inch SmartTV with Direct TV/Netflix. Cool LED lighting in the living room and a large mirror disco ball helps set the mood for any occasion. This is our latest high end loft at the Green Door Lofts. Please check out all of our lofts at the Green Door Lofts, ranging from 1 to 3 bedrooms.

The building's courtyard has a seasonally HEATED pool with lounge chairs and tables. The mezzanine deck overlooks the avenue below - perfect for people watching! Free secure garage parking is provided to our guests at The Green Door Lofts.

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.

714 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. We have a secured garage on the first floor for our guests. The loft is walking distance to shops and restaurants. We are directly on the free trolley route for shopping around the Silos.

The Bo Ho Loft is on the second floor and accessed only by stairs. If this is an issue, please consider our4 bedroom listing on the first floor.
This unit has a full sized balcony as well as 2 smaller balconies. Please no smoking in the loft or on the balconies. You may smoke outside in the common areas.
- 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 stay!
My husband and I loved our stay at the Green Door Lofts. It was super cute, had a great location (walking distance to so much) and was loaded with lots of "extras." Jim was extremely welcoming and helpful. I've stayed at quite a few VRBOs but this is definitely one of my favorites. I highly recommend this property if you'll be in the Waco area. Thanks Jim!
