Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate ample room for hiking, biking, hunting, wildlife watching, gardening, and evenings around a campfire under the stars. Established peach and pomegranate trees add character and seasonal enjoyment, while the wooded landscape provides privacy and a connection to nature. Additional improvements include a 12x24 partially converted shed ideal for an art studio, home office, hobby space, or climate-controlled storage, as well as a separate 12x24 workshop wired for electric hookup with climate control for projects, equipment storage, remote work, or small business use.

Bring your chickens, goats, pigs, dogs, and other animals and enjoy the freedom of country living with room to grow. Rarely does a property combine multiple dwellings, income-producing potential, recreational opportunities, and convenient access to Bastrop, La Grange, and Highway 71 in one private package.
