The inviting interior features a beautifully upgraded kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a farmhouse sink, flowing into a cozy living area with soaring ceilings and exposed wood beams. A large upstairs loft adds flexible living space. Enjoy the outdoors with your private in ground pool and ample yard space for entertaining. A second dwelling on the property offers a fantastic opportunity to finish out guest quarters, a rental, or studio space. This is a unique property with tons of character, comfort, and future potential—all wrapped in a warm, log cabin aesthetic. Don’t miss your chance to own this special retreat.
Great location down a quiet country road and still close to Brenham! Log cabin with 4 bedrooms (+1 bedroom - currently being used as a study/utility room), 2 full baths and cedar logs and beams throughout the house which give it a very comfortable feel. On almost 1 ½ acres, this property is very private with woods for the boundary. Awesome backyard with a swimming pool, pool house and hot tub! This is a place to enjoy!
