Over 115 astounding, unrestricted, acres off Sandy Rd in Bastrop County. The land is a gorgeous mix of open pasture lovingly restored with native blue-stem grasses, native wildflowers, and large, old growth pine and oak forest. We have never seen quite this mix of trees as the land is right at the confluence of the piney woods the Bastrop area is known for, and the live oaks we love in the Hill Country. You will find huge Loblolly Pine standing next to old growth live oaks, post oak, hickory and more.
There are two ponds on the property, at least one of which was likely a WPA project from the 1930's, and which the owner has never seen go dry in near 50 years. The property features extremely low taxes owing to the wildlife management plan professionally overseen by Plateau Land Management. The historic Republic of Texas Port Lavaca to Austin Highway borders the western edge of the prope...
There are two ponds on the property, at least one of which was likely a WPA project from the 1930's, and which the owner has never seen go dry in near 50 years. The property features extremely low taxes owing to the wildlife management plan professionally overseen by Plateau Land Management. The historic Republic of Texas Port Lavaca to Austin Highway borders the western edge of the property and access is off of County maintained Sandy Creek Rd. via a short easement.
The topography is largely rolling with gorgeous views to the west, and about 150 ft of elevation change across the approximately 1 mile deep by quarter mile wide parcel. Nothing too steep, but very interesting terrain with excellent opportunities for recreation, game hunting, and plenty of build-sites for your dream farm or ranch house; although our cabin is very serviceable for immediate use, or perhaps as a long-term guest-house.
The cabin was built in 2012 and is built on a rock outcropping on one of the highest points on the property featuring gorgeous views to the west. Floors are durable laminate that will stand up to high traffic. There is a shed for tool storage as well as a carport for parking or more likely storage of your 4 wheelers.
Wildlife includes whitetail dear, quail, dove, turkey, fox, waterfowl, and bobcat. Please take a look at the virtual tour for 3-D walkthrough of the cabin, & drone video of the larger property. Make time for a visit, and we will tour you through the exclusively pine forest at the eastern edge of the property, then travel west so you can see the pine begin to give way to oak. In the middle of the property there are some amazing Loblolly pines standing next to old growth oak.
This one of a kind property less than an hour from downtown Austin, about 25 minutes to all manner of shopping, dining and grocery retail in Bastrop, and about 45 minutes to the airport and 35 minutes to the Circuit of the Americas - they aren't making any more of this kind of land! Buyer brokers welcome, but must attend showings.
