Historic homes & land · Williamson County · Since 1978

Old houses, good land, and the people who keep them.

For three generations we have sold the county’s historic homes and farms — quietly, carefully, and often to families who will keep them for the next hundred years.

Selling a historic home

We sell the house and its story.

  1. 1The historyDeeds, builders, owners and alterations, researched and written up for buyers.
  2. 2The photographsPlasterwork, joinery and light — the details that make an old house worth it.
  3. 3The right buyerA private list of people looking for exactly this, before anything is public.

“They found the original 1840 survey of our farm before we had even listed it. The family who bought it felt they were joining its history, not just buying land.”
