Church Hill at Timber Ridge is rich with American and cinematic history. Sam Houston—legend of the Republic of Texas—was born on this land in 1793. More than 200 years later, Hollywood came to the property when scenes from Gods & Generals were filmed here. During production, well-known actors including Stephen Lang and C. Thomas Howell were on site, making Church Hill part of both American and film heritage.”
Step outside and discover the sweeping acreage surrounding the home, ideal for kids to run, dogs to explore, and adults to unwind in complete privacy. Morning coffee on the porches, sunset views across the fields, and evening gatherings under the stars make this property truly special.
