Property Description
Where wide-open skies meet equestrian dreams, this 30-acre horse property in McDade, TX offers the perfect blend of peaceful country living and proximity to modern conveniences. Just one hour from Austin and 30 minutes from Bastrop, this inviting 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath farmhouse, built in 2005, combines rustic charm with thoughtful updates. The open-concept living area welcomes you with large windows that flood the space with natural light, a stunning floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace, and a beautifully renovated kitchen designed for modern living. The main-level primary suite provides a calming retreat with updated finishes, while the second floor includes two bedrooms, a full bath, a built-in office nook, and all-new luxury vinyl plank flooring. One of the upstairs bedrooms includes three custom built-in beds, making it ideal for guests, a bunk room, or a creative flex space. Recent improvements include a new front deck and pergola added in 2025 and a roof replacement in 2019. The private well is equipped with a full filtration and softener system, and the property benefits from an agricultural tax exemption. Equestrian amenities feature a custom two-stall horse barn with an attached chicken coop and tack room, pipe-fenced corrals, two outdoor wash racks, and a hitching post. The hay-producing pastures, currently under lease, are ideal for livestock or horses, with ample room to add an arena or riding ring. Neighboring Rancho Del Lago, one of the nation's leading Andalusian breeding farms, the property offers privacy, panoramic views, and endless possibilities. Whether you're building a hobby ranch, expanding an equestrian operation, or simply seeking the tranquility of wide-open spaces, this McDade property invites you to live your Texas dream under a sky full of stars.
