David and I have been working with a real estate agent up in
Fredericksburg, Texas. When we were last up there this past
November, we looked at a couple of properties but decided that
neither of them was just what we wanted. So we are still
looking. We want something little and cute like this.
The style that you see here is what is known as a Sunday House.
These little cottages were originally designed for a family who
lived out on a ranch to use on the weekend so that they
could attend church in town on Sunday morning. Of course
now we all love them because they make the perfect little
cottage get away or bed and breakfast. This is a new one that
is patterned after one of the many original ones typically
constructed of local Austin limestone.
This log style is wonderful and I love the country setting
Talk about peaceful pleasure. And charm too! You can just leave
all the city hustle and bustle behind and let all the waves of peace
just flow over your frazzled nerves in this sweet place.
Charm Quotient!
I'll stop talking and let you just take a Sunday "drive" through more
pictures.
That was fun. Let's all stop for virtual pie! I can't believe that I have
been to Fredericksburg twice now and have not visited
Fredericksburg Pie. What was I thinking??? Pie, quilts and
vintage treasures all under one roof. My kind of place!
Hope you had fun!
Stop back for a visit tomorrow. I am working on several
metamorphosis and tweaking projects. Not sure which one
to share with you yet, but Bentley and I will decided tomorrow.
Big Texas Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

DeleteI have been to Fredericksburg and had a lovely time. Love the book store in town.
ReplyDeleteSusan, that is so interesting! Loved seeing all the homes. I love Fredricksburg, my BIL lives in Boerne and when we come down we usually go there so my SIL and I can do some shopping.
ReplyDeleteWe love visiting Fredericksburg, although we stay in our RV. It's a beautiful little town and I love the houses shown here. Do you know if the first one is a rental or private residence? I'd love more info on that one if available to rent.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of a Sunday house! You learn something new everyday. I love little houses like this. I want one for myself--just a quiet place to run away too :)
ReplyDeleteLove them all! I want one in my backyard!!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteLove the Sunday Houses.....
ReplyDeleteThe pie shop is GREAT!!!
Don't forget to go to Smitten when you are there!
