Step back in time without sacrificing functionality in this beautiful 2-story brick country home situated on 7.19 acres in Houston. Built circa 1880 and recorded in 1895, this impressive 3,001 sq. ft. home offers 3 bedrooms with the potential for a 4th bedroom on the main level, which is currently being used as a study and 2 full baths. Historic character and spacious living areas are complemented by two staircases, two gas fireplaces, a pellet stove, and a cellar with interior access and a walkout to the outdoors. The property offers approximately 2.75 acres of pasture divided into three separate areas, two of which are fenced, plus approximately 1 acre of woods—an ideal setting for horses, livestock, hobby farming, or simply enjoying country living. Outside, you'll find two substantial pole buildings measuring approximately 66' x 40' and 30' x 58'. The 30' x 58' building features 5 stalls for horses or livestock, while the property also includes a 14' x 30' silo, a 21 X 15 shed and charming 16' x 16' gazebo with concrete. The larger pole building is ready for serious projects or equipment and is partially concrete with a 9,000-lb. car lift, 220V hookup for welders, and 30-amp camper hookup. Recent improvements add even more value, including a new 200-amp electrical panel with 100-amp service to the pole building. A steel roof was installed on the home in 2021 and includes a 30-year warranty along with a 50-year warranty on the fasteners. With its classic brick architecture, generous acreage, multiple pastures, wooded area, extensive outbuildings, and versatile amenities, this one-of-a-kind property offers a rare combination of historic charm and country functionality. Bring your horses, livestock, hobbies, and dreams—there's room here for them all!
