Set across 34.851 acres in the Texas Hill Country, this property offers a rare combination of usable land, long-range views, and flexibility for a wide range of future plans. Whether you're looking to build, invest, create a private retreat, or simply hold land in a path of steady growth, this property offers a straightforward opportunity without unnecessary complexity.
As you make your way up the drive, the setting begins to open up—rolling terrain, native vegetation, and a sense of space that’s becoming increasingly difficult to find this close to Austin. The existing home is positioned on an elevated portion of the property to take full advantage of the surrounding views, with a large enclosed garage/workshop at the entry level providing ample space for storage, equipment, or ongoing projects.
Upstairs, the main living area is comfortable and functional, anchored by a well-equipped kitchen featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances (double ovens, microwave, and refrigerator), and a breakfast bar for casual seating. The layout flows naturally into the living area and out to one of the most compelling features of the property—a covered deck with wide, unobstructed Hill Country views that stretch for miles.
The main level includes two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a convenient half bath, offering a practical setup for everyday use or weekend stays. The home measures approximately 1,500 square feet and reflects a relaxed Hill Country retreat style—comfortable as-is, with room for future updates or customization over time.
An upper-level loft provides additional flexible space for an office, studio, workout area, or overflow guest use. While more linear in layout, the space is lined with windows, keeping it bright and connected to the surrounding landscape.
The land itself is where this property stands apart. With 34.851 acres, there are multiple potential building sites across the property, including several more level areas well-suited for future construction. The terrain offers a balance of usability and character, with a mix of wooded cover and open space that supports recreation, exploration, and long-term planning.
A private well with a 2,500-gallon storage tank, septic system, and electricity are already in place, providing a strong foundation for immediate use. For those considering expansion, Pedernales Electric service can be extended, and Jonestown Water Supply has indicated a water line extension may be possible.
One of the most unique aspects of the property is its direct border with a 580-acre section of the Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge—part of a much larger protected area exceeding 25,000 acres. This adjacency provides a level of long-term privacy and preservation that is increasingly difficult to replicate, along with the benefit of knowing the surrounding landscape is protected.
Located within the ETJ of Lago Vista and outside of typical subdivision restrictions, the property supports a wide range of uses—from a private Hill Country homestead to multi-generational living, equestrian use, or long-term land holding. The flexibility here is real and supported by the property’s size, layout, and existing infrastructure.
The location offers a practical balance—approximately 20 minutes to Cedar Park and under an hour to Austin—providing accessibility without sacrificing the sense of separation that defines the property.
For buyers with different goals or visions, an alternative purchase option is available for 10.317 acres without improvements (MLS #2465738).
This is not a property trying to fit a specific mold—it’s a sizable, well-positioned Hill Country tract with real usability, existing infrastructure, and long-term potential in an area that continues to see steady demand.
