    Review Far View - A Bed & Breakfast Estate, Brenham, TX

    Photo Album

    Let the waters of the pool relieve your tensions of the week or the day.  Stretch out on one of the lounge chairs on the shade and sun decks.
    The built in china cabinet is oringal to the house and after extenisve hours of sanding is return to it's orginal glory.  The passage way to nature is only a view away thru this plate glass window.  The chickadees, titmouse, and cardinal are welcome guest not only at breakfast time but year around. The squirrels will also venture on to the ledge and peer into the window will you are dining.
    Balcony room has a queen size bed with a navy blue bedspread with a field of cabbage roses and lilacs.French doors, opening on to the front porch, bring the rays of morning light into the room.
    A Far View sign greets one from the street to turn into the tree-lined driveway. The parking is located in 2 acres on the property. As one  approches the house one starts to wonder about the history and the people of this house.    Street view to encompass the entire 2-acre city block. The house is ideally located on the brow of a hill with a distant view of surpassing beauty that gives the estate it's name Far View.
    On the front porch, enjoy your morning coffee or reading a thick novel on the stuffed wicker furniture with only the sounds of the mockingbirds and the ceiling fan blades turning overhead.  At dusk, express awe at the pink sky with the sun setting and the moon rising wondering if always appears this way.
