Morning on my homestead - finding your own property with a purpose

By
Real Estate Agent with ASK FOR DEB! Stanberry Realtors 0553954

There’s a special kind of peace that greets me each morning on my little Texas homestead. The day begins softly — horses waiting for their turn out on pasture, dew glistening on the garden after an evening rain, and Crumbles the chicken announcing her breakfast expectations long before sunrise.

I gather eggs still warm from the nest, walk beneath the pecan trees, and check on what’s happening in my container garden  — peppers and pinnaples and more, the promise of another simple, abundant day

.

It’s a rhythm that reminds me why so many people dream of a slower, more intentional lifestyle — where land has purpose, meals come from your own soil, and peace feels as tangible as the morning air.

As a Realtor who lives this lifestyle, I understand that finding a property like this isn’t just about acreage or bedrooms — it’s about possibility.
It’s about land that feeds, shelters, and restores.

🌞 Live the Life You Imagine

If your dream is to:

  • Grow your own food

  • Keep a few hens (maybe even a Crumbles of your own 🐓)

  • Enjoy a farm-to-table lifestyle

  • Create a peaceful retreat with purpose and productivity

Then now might be the perfect time to make that dream real.

Working with Kelly is a good move

I love your post, Deb Dahlberg Rowland!  I love the idea of homesteading, but I'm not that disciplined!  This year, I sold a property to a couple who wanted this dream.  The land was perfect for it.  They have about 20 chickens and  a couple of goats now.  They started designing their gardens this year, and I can't wait to see it next summer.  I am envious of the lifestyle!

Thank you!  It does take some work and doesn't happen all at once.  You can live the homesteading lifestyle vicariously through your Clients!

Crumbles the Chicken! I love it!

As for the way your homestead day starts, I love it. We've been thinking about getting chicken or ducks - maybe next Spring we will do that!

It is a great way to gear up for real estate and also a great way to ratchet down after a day of real estate!  Chickens are the bomb!  Crumbles gets picked on by the flock so she has become our yard chicken and she is pretty spoiled!  Have a great week.

When a property speaks to one's vision, one's dreams, then that is the property for the buyer. Your description of your property is exceptional and thank you for sharing.
