My husband's business partner and his wife are in the process of buying this awesome piece of property in Salado. It used to be a gristmill back in the day and it is right on a beautiful creek in Salado. They asked me to take a look at it to help them brainstorm about potential ideas for design since it is not your traditional house or floorplan. I had a great time visiting and hopefully the sale goes through so that they can live on this property and get to remodel the inside!! Enjoy a few pics. I am not including the ones of the inside. I will save those for a later date to compare to the "after" pics.
This is the view of the mill/house when you pull up. The stone is all original and 14 inches thick!! The back column with windows is the original grain elevator--very cool and still operable.
The wrap around porch/balcony.
The other side of the grain elevator.
View of the house from the creek (and my little nugget on the lawn).
Ooo, so cool! I bet you could be a huge help on this project!
ReplyDeleteThis mill belonged to my great great grandparents; Joel and Fanny Stinnett or possibly listed under their son's name; George. I want to visit here very much. Please email me at ljcrain2@pgrb.com
