This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom custom-built home on 7.4 acres is located less than a 20-minute drive north of Brenham near charming Independence. Perfectly scattered oak trees adorn this property with two ponds and a creek bordering the left and back property lines, offering a serene retreat that is close to modern conveniences. An automatic driveway gate with easy-to-maintain rock landscaping completes the perimeter enclosure that is also cross-fenced with livestock wire. The standing seam metal roof, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and stained wood trim and cabinetry add to the longevity and charm of this farmhouse. The vaulted ceiling highlights the open concept living, dining, and kitchen areas while the split floor plan creates privacy for the master suite. Outside, new owners will enjoy the ample covered front and back porches, a vaulted 22'X30' carport that doubles as a gathering/party space, and a pole barn for storage and additional covered parking space.
