Spring Color Blooms At These Brenham, Texas, Finds

Share News:

Bursting with sprawling ranches and colorful blooms, Brenham, Texas is perhaps one of the most eye-catching and inviting towns in the Lone Star State. The family-friendly pit stop, just three-and-a-half hours from Dallas is most famous for its rich farming and railroad history, as well as being home to the famed Blue Bell Creameries. So we went hunting for treats, have found two Brenham gems you have to see. Sit back, relax, and get lost in the beauty of good old fashioned country living in this week’s Splurge vs. Steal.

Splurge: Brenham Bluebonnet Beauty With 315 Acres And Barn For $5.67M

First of all, how peaceful is it to see fields of bluebonnets and rolling green pastures? We love this Brenham beauty for so many reasons, not least of which is its pristine acreage. Best known as Heavenly Hills Ranch, it sits just north of town on 315+/- acres. And it functions as both a working cattle ranch with eight ponds and a relaxing private retreat, complete with modern rustic barn.

According to the listing, “This ranch is one of the last true gems of all the great things the rolling hills of Washington County has to offer and just minutes from Somerville Lake.”

From the natural seasonal creek to its elevation of 361-feet overlooking picturesque rolling hills, this is a rare Texas treasure! And per the listing it’s “the perfect place to own a working livestock ranch or enjoy fishing on one of the many ponds or lakes.”

Additional highlights include majestic views from multiple balconies, abundant wildlife including white tail deer, plus well-kept cross fences and mature oak trees. A worthy splurge indeed!

Tim Seeker with Star Cross Realty has listed 2200 Dannheim Road, Brenham, Texas for $5.67 million.

Steal: Five-Acre Austin Stone Farmhouse High On A Hill For $650K 

Next, we have our steal. This beautiful Brenham retreat includes five-acres of rolling pasture with a darling Austin Stone Farmhouse perched high on a hill. And the best part? It offers the same tranquil lifestyle as our splurge but for a fraction of the price. 

The three-bedroom, two-full-and-one-half-bathroom ranch style offers an open airy layout, soaring ceilings, and warm and inviting interiors. There is even an exterior building with electric and plumbing just waiting to be transformed into a man cave or she-shed.

Sit on the back patio and enjoy all the colors of spring with mature trees and lawn or relax inside surrounded by walls of windows bringing the outside in. A stunning green-hued custom kitchen, upgraded master bath, and wrap around porch are but a few of its charms.

Don’t sleep on this rare Brenham offering.

Paul Gunter with Top Guns Realty On Lake Conroe has listed 1515 Wauls Legion Road, Brenham, Texas for $650,000.
