Bellville is conveniently located just a short jaunt from the Houston metropolitan area, and an easy drive from Austin, San Antonio, and College Station. Our historic downtown square is surrounded by unique shops that are sure to satisfy any shopper’s curiosity. And scattered around town...more of the same, as well as historic buildings & homes. We invite you to spend the day with us and enjoy the charm of our friendly small Texas town.

If you want to fully experience life in the country, but still be close to city amenities, in Bellville you can find historic homes for sale, as well as a variety of homes in "traditional neighborhoods" with beautiful trees and friendly neighbors. Large & small acreage is available in the area for building your permanent, weekend or retirement home, and/or for ranching or farming.
Stop by for a visit and discover what we have to offer.
