Brownwood businessman and civic leader J.A. Walker (d.1944) built this home in 1901. A prominent Texas Baptist, he was an early benefactor to Howard Payne University. The Colonial Revival styling of the Walker home reflects his status as a leader in the community. Outstanding features include the ornate portico, wide wraparound veranda and intricate ornamentation. The house remained in the Walker family for over 75 years.
Restored in 1979 by Mr. and Mrs. Ben Barnes. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark, Texas Historical Commission, 1982.
