Experience the quintessential charm of rural Texas at this exceptional ±100-acre working cattle ranch, located in the rolling hills of historic Washington County—just minutes from Brenham and College Station, and less than 3 miles from the iconic Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site. Nestled along the scenic Independence Trail, this thoughtfully improved ranch offers a perfect balance of history, function, and natural beauty.
The ranch is well-suited for agricultural use with a blend of diverse soils, tree species, and extensive water resources. Three ponds and a seasonal creek support livestock and attract wildlife, including deer, creating both practical and recreational value. Fully operational for cattle, the property features well-maintained pipe working pens that join traps with pipe water troughs, multiple barns (including 40x60 with a loft above it for extra storage, a 30x40 that will accommodate four trucks nicely, and a smaller storage with concrete). Infrastructure includes both a water well (2018), and city water access, (ensuring water to the property at all times), an aerobic septic system (installed 2021), optional propane with five spigots, and a 30-amp plug—ideal for RV or equipment use.
At the heart of the property lies a charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom historical farmhouse, that has been carefully updated for modern living. Additions made in 2009 expanded the home to include approximately 2,600+ square feet of comfortable living space. The floors in the original part of the home are beautifully restored long leaf pine, complimenting the antique beadboard details of the original rooms adding both character and authenticity. The master suite features mesquite floors in the bath, a luxurious 6' jetted tub with a walk-in shower, and a large closet with built-ins. Updates also include granite in the kitchen and a copper farmhouse sink, two hot water heaters (2023 & 2018), a Daikin 5-ton HVAC ac/heat system (installed 2022), ADT alarm system, and a DirectTV dish for connectivity. Additional highlights include a utility room, office space, and thoughtful storage throughout.
Whether you're seeking a functional cattle operation, a peaceful weekend retreat watching the amazing sunsets, or a legacy property steeped in over 100 years of Texas heritage, this ranch delivers unmatched potential and serene countryside living.
