901 FM 1331, Circleville TX 76574

Once in a lifetime opportunity to buy a REAL piece of Texas History. The 1848 home was built by David Mcfadin, a Texas war hero who fought under Gen. Sam Houston in the Battle of San Jacinto for Texas Independence in 1836. McFadin is also one of the first settlers to come to Williamson County and the home is the oldest home in the county. Exterior and interior walls are said to be 27" thick and designed to protect against Indian attacks. Per seller, funds from the State and County historical societies are available to repair and restore the home. An active spring behind the home is where confederate soldiers camped during the civil war. The McFadin Farm is 74.9 UNRESTRICTED acres, roughly 29 acres of cultivated land and 45 acres of native pasture with 2300' of FM 1331 road frontage. The small strip of land between the McFadin Farm and the San Gabriel river belongs to the Corp of Engineers. Jonah water meter on property with Oncor electric service. Only the 29 acres appears to be ag exempt. The home needs extensive repairs but could still possibly be occupied.
