📰About 215 S College
The 2,700-square-foot commercial building at 215 S College Street in Waxahachie is undergoing a renovation to create two distinct tenant spaces. The project involves altering the interior to include a white-boxed, accessible front retail or office area and a rear one-person law office, separated by a new demising wall. This work takes place within a designated historic area in Ellis County.
Sondra Heffernan is the owner of record for this privately funded project. Justin K Walton serves as the registered accessibility specialist. The estimated cost for the renovation is $200,000, which calculates to $74 per square foot. This figure is close to the county median of $85 per square foot for similar renovation and alteration filings in Ellis County.
The scheduled build window for this project is 181 days, which is longer than the county median of 92 days for comparable work. TDLR completed plan review in October 2026, and construction was scheduled to finish in July 2026. However, TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection, so the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record.
Project Context and Location
The property is located in the Downtown Waxahachie neighborhood. Third-party data from Movoto describes the building as a 2,700-square-foot commercial structure built in 1900 on a 3,066-square-foot lot. Another listing from daveperrymiller.com notes the property as a 1-bath unit on 0.07 acres. These third-party details provide context for the physical footprint of the site undergoing renovation.
Waxahachie is a community in Ellis County with a population of about 51,203 according to U.S. Census ACS 2023 five-year estimates for ZIP code 75165. The median household income in this area is $84,780, and the median owner-occupied home value is $308,100. The housing stock is mostly owner-occupied, with approximately 18,940 housing units in the zone.
Other registered projects in the immediate area include Sonata Estates, MLK Jr. Blvd Sidewalk Improvements, First Cash, Sprouts Farmers Market #185, and the Action Behavior Center Waxahachie N Hwy 77. The Ellis County unemployment rate was 4.3 percent in August 2026, lower than a year earlier. This renovation adds to the commercial development activity in the city, focusing on adapting historic structures for modern office and retail use.
