About this property
Private home with pool on 3+ acres within 15 minutes of Round Top & Brenham!
Nestled within the rolling pastures and under the shining Texas stars is “The Retreat”. Located just 12-miles from Round Top, 13-miles from Brenham and 11-miles to Burton, you will find this sweet sanctuary to be the “heart” amongst all the happenings! It is a delightful, single-story retreat with private pool & perched over 3+ acres with amazing views that provide front row seats to the sunset & stars. This private home is sure to sweep you off your feet with its happy blue doors, lovely finishes, open-concept design, and serene atmosphere. Enjoy the afternoons discovering the charm of the easily accessible surrounding towns, wineries, antique shops, the Blue Bell Creamery, and some incredible eateries. After exploring the local offerings, come back and relax in a rocking chair on the porch or around the firepit to soak up the most beautiful sunset; the one you promise yourself to never forget. Escape from the hustle and bustle to fresh air, a cool country breeze and the tranquil sounds of Mother Nature. This destination is ideal for a relaxing girlfriend get-a-way or special time with your loved ones. The Retreat was created to ignite that smile within your soul and fill your tank with peace & joy…and of course a touch of Dolly is awe-inspiring!

About the host
Hosted by A. Walsh

Thank you for visiting our listing. We are a Christian-loving family that reside in Katy with our 2 young daughters. We fell in love with the easy commute, small town feels and fresh air in Washington County! My Mother has lots of good childhood memories of their time in Burton/Brenham growing up, and it has been enjoyable for us to offer the same to our family. Our hobbies include trying out different coffee shops, walking, golfing and being with our family & friends. Thank you for letting us share our special spot with you!
