About This Home
Positioned along the high-growth U.S. Highway 290 between Houston & Austin, The Citadel is a rare 48-acre legacy offering overlooking Brenham from one of its highest elevations. Built in 1924 by renowned architect Alfred C. Finn, this 7,270+ sqft structure was originally Brenham’s first country club, once featuring a 9-hole golf course & pool. Constructed with 8” concrete walls & steel I-beams, it offers exceptional durability & historic character. Recent upgrades include new roofs on both the main structure & guest house/office. With direct highway frontage & strong regional growth, this property presents outstanding potential for a private estate, event venue, hospitality concept, or long-term investment hold.
