Property Description
Tucked into the Texas Hill Country just 35 minutes from downtown Austin, this remarkable 15-acre sanctuary sits in a private valley bordering Big Sandy Creek, offering a rare blend of seclusion, natural beauty, and accessibility. Located at the back of a gated acreage tract community and accessed by a private drive, the property is surrounded by rolling hills, towering oak trees, and water, creating a setting that feels completely removed from the pace of modern life. Priced at land value, the home was previously flood-affected and taken down to the studs, presenting a unique opportunity to rebuild or customize a farmhouse to your own vision. Home interior and exterior images shown are from before the flood and are included solely to illustrate the home's prior layout and potential.
The land has been thoughtfully cared for and is supported by an Agriculture/Wildlife Exemption managed by Plateau Wildlife Management, enhancing both stewardship and tax efficiency. With rich, fertile soil, the property has recently operated as a working flower farm, featuring wildflower fields, organic gardens, fruit trees, pumpkin patches, greenhouses, chicken coops, and open pasture. The terrain and infrastructure also make it well suited for an equestrian property, while Big Sandy Creek provides a natural backdrop for fishing, relaxation, and enjoying the outdoors.
The existing single-story home offers approximately 2,945 sq ft with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, accompanied by a 1,461 sq ft shop. The home was previously flood-affected and taken to the studs, offering a clean slate for customization. Interior and exterior images shown are pre-flood and provided for reference only. Utilities and infrastructure are already in place, including Pedernales Electric Cooperative (PEC) service, a multi-generational well with a new pump installed in 2024, and a 5,000-gallon holding tank added in 2021.
Outdoor amenities include a 40,000-gallon deluxe natural swimming pond with a 10,000-gallon-per-hour wetland filtration system installed in 2021 (note: pond was flood affected), reinforcing the property's strong connection to nature. The eco-gravity septic system requires pumping only once every two years, and approved plans are in place to expand the system, with a permit valid for the next seven years.
Despite its tranquil setting, the property is just 10 minutes from 183A and major shopping and dining, offering an exceptional balance of privacy and convenience. Being offered at land value with existing improvements, this is a rare opportunity to create a legacy Hill Country retreat with water, wildlife, and infrastructure already in place—only a short drive from Austin.
