Overview

Property Description

Set on 8.44 private acres in Cedar Creek, this homestead is built for buyers who want land that works as hard as they do. An ag value exemption is in place for a working apiary, keeping your property taxes lower. Inside, the 2,037-square-foot main home has been freshly refreshed with new hardwood flooring, paint, and a refinished bathtub and shower, all wrapped in an open floor plan that flows out to decks overlooking gardens, mature trees, and a seasonal pond that welcomes songbirds and wildlife nearly year-round. A separate garage apartment has 543 square feet with its own bedroom, bath, and newer appliances, adds real flexibility: a guest suite, a home office, or a source of rental income. Just 10 minutes to downtown Bastrop and 30 minutes to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, this property offers the rare combination of genuine country privacy and easy access to city amenities, dining, and travel.
