About this property
2BR Elegant Farmhouse Cottage w/ Porch, W & D
A peaceful getaway from the city, Christmas Hill Cottage A is nestled minutes away from Lake Somerville. Here, idyllic, sun-filled days will be full of boat rides, sandy reading sessions at Welch Park, and peaceful hikes or mountain biking at Lake Somerville State Park & Trailway. You're also only 30 miles away from College Station, home of Texas A&M University.
-- THE PROPERTY --
Combining the perfect mix of farmhouse charm and modern elegance, the interior was designed by Houston's Williams House LLC. You'll love the open-concept layout, well-equipped kitchen, restful sleeping quarters, and sizable bathroom with a walk-in shower. The upstairs loft (accessible by a loft ladder) is perfect for younger guests if you are visiting as a family. A stackable washer/dryer is even available for your convenience.
Outside, enjoy each other's company and the radiant weather from the porch or opt for scenic strolls along the walking trails in the back.
This cottage can be rented together with Christmas Hill Cottage B as The Christmas Hill Cottages for a discounted rate.
