Bastrop
Central TX Recreational Hunting Property
CR 308, Lot #WP001 Smithville, TX 78957
Description
Located just 15 miles south of Highway 71, and less than an hour from Austin, this private tract is the perfect location for a homestead, family farm, or recreational hunting property. With minimal improvements, this property is a relatively blank slate that a new owner can make their own. Pockets of timber comprised of mixed hardwood stands, cedar and mesquite dot the landscape providing cover and natural browse for a variety of wildlife, while three ponds ensure reliable surface water. The property also features a mix of native and improved pastures with good grass ideal for cattle or horses. Improvements include a 1900 sqft metal shop on concrete slab, several small outbuildings and sheds, and a mobile home that the owners are willing to remove if requested. There is also an old abandoned homestead that would provide an abundance of antique/reclaimed wood and tin popular in construction, remodeling and/or woodworking projects. Whether you are looking for a recreational getaway, a convenient bugout spot, or an easily maintained homestead, this property has it all, so call us today to set up your own private showing.
