234 Sandy Rd

Over 115 astounding, unrestricted, acres off county-maintained Sandy Rd in Bastrop County. The land is a gorgeous mix of open pasture lovingly restored with native blue-stem grasses, native wildflowers, and large old-growth pine & oak forest. We have never seen quite this mix of trees as the land is right at the confluence of the piney woods the Bastrop area is known for & the live oaks we love in the Hill Country. You will find huge Loblolly Pine standing next to old growth live oaks, post oak, hickory & more. There are two ponds on the property, at least one of which was likely a WPA project from the 1930s, & which the owner has never seen go dry in near 50 years. The property features extremely low taxes owing to the wildlife management plan overseen by Plateau Land Management. The historic Republic of Texas Port Lavaca to Austin Highway borders the western edge of the property. The topography is largely rolling with gorgeous views to the west & about 150 ft of elevation change across the approximately 1 mile deep by quarter mile wide parcel. Nothing too steep, but very interesting terrain with excellent opportunities for recreation, game hunting, & plenty of build-sites for your dream farm or ranch house, although our cabin is very serviceable for immediate use. Wildlife includes dear, quail, dove, turkey, fox, waterfowl, and bobcat. Please take a look at the virtual tour for 3-D walkthrough of the cabin & drone video of the larger property. Make time for a visit & we will tour you through the exclusively pine forest at the eastern edge of the property, then travel east so you can see the pine begin to give way to oak. There are some amazing pines standing next to old growth oak. This one of a kind property is located less than an hour from downtown Austin; about 25 minutes to all manner of shopping, dining & grocery retail in Bastrop; about 45 minutes to the airport; & 35 minutes to the Circuit of the Americas. They aren't making any more of this kind of land!
