Property Description
Rafter Rose Ranch is 32 +/- acres just outside Elgin, set up as a working cutting horse ranch with the infrastructure already in place. A freshly updated home, open hay pasture, a creek, and two ponds round it out. Improvements: The 3-bed, 2.5-bath home was built in 1984 with 1,935 sq ft, central air and heat, and a masonry fireplace. Every bathroom has been newly renovated with new flooring, showers, and vanities, so the home is move-in ready. A pole barn houses equipment and tools, with two horse stalls on the back side. A separate barn and stable offers 8 more stalls, a feed room with a roll-up door for loading feed and hay, and a tack room. Outside are a riding arena, round pen, horse walker, paddocks, and working pens with a squeeze chute. Whether you continue the cutting horse business or just need a place built for horses and livestock, the bones are here. Land & Water: Mostly open hay pasture with trees along the creek and fence lines for shade and cover. Room to cut hay, graze horses, or run cattle. A creek runs along the property and two ponds water livestock. Deer, dove, and small game move through the creek corridor. Access: Paved county road frontage on Red Town Road for easy year-round access. Tax Status: Currently classified agricultural by Bastrop County. Buyers should verify exemption status with the appraisal district. Local Area: Elgin is a few miles away, known for its sausage and small-town feel. Austin is about 30 miles west via US-290. Legal: A19 Casner, Isaac, 32 ac remainder of 40 ac, less 8 ac. Parcel ID 81408 (new parcel pending).
