Late Night Real Estate: Start Your Own Tradition In Brenham
Here at the Indoor Pool Real Estate Agency, sales have, as you would expect, come to a standstill. It feels confusing to sort through our usual listings knowing that perhaps now is a difficult time to roll the dice on a pizza place in Wyoming or an indoor playground in New Hampshire. Those WILL be needed sometime soon! In the meantime, maybe you just want a place to take your boots off, knowing there’s a café nearby where a waiter knows your name and your California Turkey Wrap order.
Settle down—or get up!—in Brenham, home to “The World’s Largest BBQ Pit”, Blue Bell ice cream, and Blind Willie Johnson. Between Austin and Houston, the town has a classique, country-chic small town feel and a Whataburger drive-thru where someone was honking loudly into the void when we visited last week. And best of all, in a true stroke of Americana, you can be a small-business-home-owner when you reside at 1005 Texas-105. Around the corner from Jadii’s Soul Food and down the street from the Donut Hole, this is a Victorian-style home with an attached antique business (that can become a deli, office, or stay an antique store).
It is currently Antiques Country Store, a place where you can find both ice cream and a grandfather clock. Two years ago, a reviewer named Darryl wrote, “Mary is one sweet lady. She and her husband Marshall will treat you right.” to which Mary or Marshall replied, “Thanks Friend, We Appreciate the kind words.”
With two beds and one bath, this cozy home has a wraparound porch, a widow’s walk, high ceilings and Victorian detailing. There’s also a rosy-pink foyer and a giant oak tree in the yard! The store comes with a walk-in cooler, shelves and a storage room. Check out the full listing here, one version of the American Dream that can be yours for $385,000. Someone could do something pretty cool with a walk-in cooler, a porch, and a roadside storefront…
