Romantic Historic Farmhouse - Pond - Porch - Fenced - 8 Miles to Brenham | Cottage in Chappell Hill
1 Bedroom Cottage in Chappell Hill
Welcome to The Cottage at Chappell Hill. Some places are just places to sleep. This circa-1900 farmhouse is an experience. Known as the Healing House for decades, you'll feel it the moment you arrive. It offers a rare kind of peace - one guests keep coming back for. Relax on the porch above a pond as birds serenade at sunrise, deer prance at dusk, and fireflies light the night. Inside, stained glass, oil paintings, and antiques have stories to tell. Chappell Hill's darling shops and diners are 1/2 mile away, Brenham is 8 miles.
The Space:
The Cottage at Chappell Hill is old-world charm wrapped around modern comfort — the kind of place that reminds you why you love to travel in the first place. The Cottage faces Main Street in the tiny, Hallmark-type town of Chappell Hill (population 300) — tucked away enough to exhale, close enough to everything worth doing. Guests have full private access to the entire 800 SF cottage with 1 king bedroom, 1 bathroom, 1 full kitchen, 1 laundry room, 2 porches, and fenced yard. No shared spaces or hovering owners here. This is the only home on the property.
Modern Touches: Blazing fast Starlink Wi-Fi · Vegan toiletries · Organic linens · Phone charging station · Eye masks · Remote fireplace · Streaming TVs + DVD · Door code entry. Room details and amenities are captured in the photos — take a peek!
Historic Charm: Original shiplap walls and wood floors · Victorian sash windows · Gingerbread trim · Cypress shingles · Oil paintings · Pressed tin ceiling · Stained glass front door handcrafted in England · A German "Willkommen" sign welcomes you at the entrance — a nod to the original owner who built this cottage in the final year of the 19th century. German heritage is deeply woven into the fabric of this home and this small town. My German ancestors settled in this county in the 1800s and are buried in Brenham. I love sharing the cottage with others so they can create new memories, experience the beauty, explore the sites, and learn about the local history.
