In 1908, a prominent Central Texas family built a new home in Brady. It was the White family, W. N. and Nina White. They were a ranching and banking family, and were community and church leaders. The home was built on elevation above the courthouse and the downtown area.
It was a large, beautiful home with architectural features that are rarely found today. This home is now on the market. The one-of-a-kind property has over 3,400 feet in the main house, plus an apartment and guest quarters.
The exterior is a very solid cut limestone and brick construction. A wide covered porch curves around 2 sides of the home. Both the exterior and interior are historically accurate, with numerous period pieces and features in excellent condition.

In the living room/parlor at the front of the house is a double fireplace, which also opens to the adjacent living room. The flooring catches the eye, it maple hardwood with a beautiful inlaid walnut design.

The grounds are attractive and inviting, with numerous shade trees. It is spacious, nearly an acre, and features a gazebo and a 2,400 square foot entertainment building.
