The land was allowed to settle for five years before construction began on the house, and despite severe weather events like Hurricane Harvey, the property never flooded.

Crafted with care, the property was further elevated using excess soil from Gloster Aerodrome's runway construction. A testament to thoughtful design!
The dense forest harbors a thriving ecosystem. Deer, raccoons, armadillos, and a symphony of bird species call this place home.
Situated just 9/10ths of a mile from the Brazos River, this homestead enjoys the perfect balance of proximity to nature and convenience.
