Property Description

Want to own a piece of Texas History ? This rare opportunity is gem for sure. Located in the revitalized downtown area of Brenham, Texas, this historic Depot building was built by the Santa Fe Railway Company in 1925 to serve as a hub for transporting locally grown cotton to markets and later served as a passenger train station. Designed by Alex Griffin, this two-story brick Depot was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. The property was sold in 1996 and underwent a major renovation and is now ready, willing, and able for someone to write the next chapter. Well known nationwide for its gently rolling hills covered with Texas bluebonnets and as the home of Blue Bell ice cream, Brenham, Texas, is a charming little community located between Austin and Houston just off US 290 at SH 36 and very near to the Birthplace of Texas at Washington-on-the-Brazos. In recent years, Brenham has become Houston’s ”new suburban area” offering new local developments.
