Property Description
Exceptional income-producing opportunity in the heart of downtown Brenham. Originally built circa 1886, this beautifully restored historic home blends timeless character with modern updates and multiple income possibilities. Renovated in 2010, the home features long-leaf pine floors, soaring ceilings, a spacious family room addition, large upstairs bedrooms, and a rare built-in elevator. The detached carriage house apartment (1 bed, 1 bath above the garage) offers a separate rental opportunity, ideal for long-term or short-term income. Both the main home and apartment are well-suited for STR or owner-occupied income strategies. All just steps from Historic Downtown Brenham and Brazos Valley Brewery, with walkable shopping, dining, and entertainment. A rare chance to own a historic property that offers charm, flexibility, and strong income potential.
