About the host
Hosted by Brian Ehrler
Hello everyone, happy to make your acquaintance. My name is Brian my wife's name is Tanya and we are the part owners, full time property managers, chief cooks and bottle washers of this property.
Why they chose this property
This property has been in Tanya's family for a few decades. It originally belonged to her grandparents. Through a bit of horse trading, negotiating, and hard work, we have become the caretakers of the old stone farm house.
Over the past couple of years we have updated most of the house. We replaced the 1965 electrical, plumbing, heating, and most importantly in Texas, the AC. We completely renovated the hall bath/laundry room. We've taken out old carpeting and replaced it with luxury vinyl plank flooring. The home was brought up to code and is now a great place to get away. We've worked hard to bring the house forward to the modern century, while embracing the original charm of the farmhouse. Although we still have projects to do, the home is now a pleasant respite for family. We have fond memories of the adventures we've had along the way.

What makes this property unique
Our property is quite unique. We are technically "in the country" with the city limit being just a few hundred feet away. That means our country home is moments away from the city. Although the home is sitting in the midst of 5 acres, the best thing about the property is our namesake, One Old Oak, the approximately 200 year old live oak tree that is in the backyard.
