The Allan House began as the private
residence of Scottish immigrant and educator John T. Allan. As one of
the few remaining Victorian homes in the downtown central business district,
the Allan House offers a truly unique place for people to gather.
We have taken great care and effort to restore the home to its original grandeur. The Allan House is now available for corporate and private functions. Located conveniently next to the courthouse, the home provides conference areas as well as virtual office space for lease during the business week. In the evening and on weekends the home is available for private functions.
The Allan House is ideally suited for weddings, receptions, corporate functions, and charitable events. The gated grounds include a charming stone patio with native Texas blossoms and heirloom roses under a canopy of old majestic oak trees. The elegant interior space accommodates formal wedding parties up to 100 people and is suitable for approximately 80-100 people to enjoy a seated formal dinner. For casual cocktail parties or special events, the total space will accommodate up to 400 guests.
