Lagrange Real Estate
Located midway between Houston and Austin in Fayette County LaGrange is a small town jewel! The Colorado River winds through the town and many residents of LaGrange are fortunate enough to live on a very high river bluff overlooking the town. From this bluff at night you can see the lights of downtown LaGrange and the lights of surrounding communities.
