La Paloma: Charming 3 Bedroom in the heart of Marfa!
Step into The Highland House, a lovingly updated 1950s home in the heart of downtown Marfa. Located on the town’s only street with a beautiful central median — affectionately known as “the boulevard”. This artful retreat offers history, comfort, and West Texas charm just steps from the Presidio County Courthouse and Marfa’s best shops, galleries, and cafes.
Enjoy views of the iconic water tower from the covered front porch, unbeatable Wi-Fi (high-speed fiber optic), and cozy modern comforts throughout. Whether you’re here to stargaze, unwind, or explore, this home is your perfect Marfa base.

OUTDOOR SPACE Unwind on the covered front porch, take in the views of the water tower, and feel the rhythm of small-town Marfa life passing by on “the boulevard.” Out back, discover a bit of local mystery — a vintage well that’s as intriguing as the stories this town holds.
