Property Description
Find your peace in the rolling hills of Smithville! This charming single-story home features three bedrooms and two baths, perfectly positioned among mature oaks to offer the quiet seclusion and wide-open Bastrop County skies you've been looking for. Living in the Smithville area means having space to breathe and this property delivers that with a landscape of mature post oak trees and a setting that is currently eligible for a wildlife property tax exemption. Because the land attracts local deer, turkey, and a variety of birds, the property feels like a private park while remaining just 15 minutes from the shops and dining in downtown Smithville. This home features brick on all four sides and a durable metal roof. You can rest easy knowing the big ticket items are taken care of, the HVAC and water heater are just a few years old (2022), and the addition of leafguard gutters means one less thing on your weekend to-do list. As you walk through the front door, the living room serves as the central hub, with vaulted ceilings and a classic brick fireplace. The large windows here frame peaceful views of the acreage, bringing the outdoors inside. Directly off the living room, the floor plan opens into a dedicated dining space and the kitchen, creating an easyflow for daily meals and hosting guests. The bedrooms are situated on the opposite side of the living room for added privacy. The primary suite is spacious, featuring an attached ensuite bathroom with a soaking bathtub. Two additional bedrooms are located nearby and share a well-appointed second bathroom and tile flooring runs throughout, making the home easy to maintain. The location is only 20 minutes from the shops and dining in Bastrop and roughly 37 miles from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. This pocket of Smithville offers a rare balance of true rural privacy and proximity to the growing corridor of Central Texas.
