Back available due to buyer financing. Tucked against the protected lands of Bastrop State Park, this private slice of Texas offers more than just land—it’s a sanctuary. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features an open, spacious living room, a cozy eat-in kitchen, and plenty of windows to take in the surrounding beauty of native prairie and woodland views. The level lot borders the restricted park area and sits on a publicly maintained road, surrounded by heritage oaks, loblolly pines, and the iconic “Lost Pines. ” This peaceful setting is a haven for wildlife lovers, with a landscape that supports butterflies, lizards, deer, and over 80 species of birds recorded on eBird—truly a birder’s paradise! As Master Naturalists, the sellers partnered with fellow plant experts to complete an iNaturalist project identifying 124 native plant species on the property. These diverse plants support a rich and thriving ecosystem. Whether you're looking to escape the city, enjoy the sounds of nature, or simply find peace in a rural setting, this property offers a rare opportunity to live immersed in the wild beauty of Central Texas.
