The Linsdey house was built in 1901 by prosperous local merchant Robert Lindsey, who engaged prominent local architect Dietrich Wulfs to design this impressive Victorian structure.
The home is located at 706 Virginia Avenue near downtown Nacogdoches.
A state historic marker on the front of the house reads as follows:
"LINDSEY HOUSE
Affluent families of Nacogdoches began building spacious homes in this area overlooking the town in the 1890s. Robert and Emily (Willis) Lindsey, local dry goods merchants noted for their contributions to the arts in Nacogdoches, built this prominent hilltop Victorian residence in 1901. It was designed by noted local architect Dietrich A. W. Rulfs, who designed many of the area's grand residences. The house, which remained in the Lindsey family until 1945, was significantly enlarged in 1953.
Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1995"
