A German immigrant farmer and cabinetmaker bought the land in 1872 and operated a molasses press on-site before constructing the house. Texas TexasHillCountry TexasHistory RealEstate beautifulhome uniquehome

The five-bedroom, six-bath Victorian was listed around February for $3.2 million and around two weeks ago went back on the sales block with an asking price just shy of $2.6 million.

Built in 1903, the property sits beside Town Creek, two blocks from Fredericksburg's historic Main Street, and the house has enough historical significance to warrant a marker from the state of Texas. German immigrant Christian Crenwelge, a farmer and cabinetmaker, bought the land in 1872 and operated a molasses press on-site before constructing the home, which he lived in until 1906, according to state records.

The home's great room has a vaulted ceiling supported by antique timber beams. Restored bead board and original yellow pine floors run through the home, which also includes an antique wardrobe converted into a bar.
