Residence first. Guest use second.
Four Winds must always read as a residence first. When guest stays occur, they are limited and incidental—offered within portions of the home—and managed in a way that does not signal expansion, conversion, or intensified use.
Use this description when needed: “A historic, owner-occupied private residence offering limited short-term guest accommodations within portions of the home.”
Compliance with state short-term rental tax remittance requirements does not alter the property’s residential zoning classification.
What we do not claim
- No commercial-scale operation language
- No implication of added density, new units, or increased capacity

- No direct reservation processing on this website
A historic Bonham home, cared for over time
The home’s character is part of what makes it worth preserving—real wood details, traditional layout, and the lived-in feel you don’t get from modern builds.
The goal is simple: protect the residential character of the property while offering limited guest accommodations within portions of the home when available.
