Washington County

Washington County Homes & Ranches for Sale

Washington County is one of the most beautiful counties in all of Texas. Known for rolling hills and bluebonnet trails in the spring it is also one of the most desirable areas to invest in land. As new immigrants poured into the area the county rapidly developed a thriving agricultural economy and the accoutrements of a settled society. By the early 1840s a number of small communities, including Gay Hill, Tiger Point, Mustang, Mount Vernon, and Independence, had been established in the area. Sawmills and a brickyard were built in or near Washington-on-the Brazos in 1837, and that same year the first school began to operate.
