About this House

**Owner Financing Available — And a Tax Advantage That Changes the Math**
(The Zestimate is wrong...it's $1800/mo more than you'll pay)

Before you look at the price, look at the taxes: this property carries an active Texas Wildlife Management Valuation, cutting annual property taxes from an estimated $24,000/year down to $2,400/year— a savings of $21,600 every year, or ~$1,800 back in your pocket every single month. That's not a rebate or a temporary discount — it's a legal, transferable valuation that's already survived a county challenge, and we will show you exactly how to maintain it.

Why does that matter to you? Because $1,800/month in tax savings has the same effect on your monthly payment as knocking a couple hundred thousand dollars off the purchase price of a comparable high-tax property. Run the numbers with any lender: a buyer here effectively gets more house, more land, and more buying power for every dollar than they would on an equivalent property paying full County tax rates. Over 10 years, that's over $200,000 that stays with you instead of the county — and if invested instead of spent, it compounds into significantly more.

**We are offering owner financing**, which combined with the ultra-low tax burden makes this one of the more accessible ways to own 13+ acres of Hill Country land within 25 minutes of downtown Austin. Ask us for terms.


**The Property**

13.68 private acres along Lime Creek, gated entry, paved concrete drive, elevated long-range Hill Country views, and zero adjacent development. No city limits, no ETJ, and no HOA — bring your vision, or simply enjoy what's already here.

**Your New Home (built 2015)**
- 2,047 sq ft, 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, two living areas
- Foam insulation, Low-E windows, 3-zone high-efficiency heat pumps for year-round comfort
- Large deck overlooking a designer in-ground pool with a 12-seat spa — built for entertaining

**Your Extra Building (built 2018)**
- 1,500 sq ft, fully conditioned, 19-ft vaulted ceilings
- 200-amp service with multiple 240V drops, EV charger, 2-post vehicle lift (conveys with sale)
- Upper storage loft, half bath — ideal for a hobby shop, business, or future guest quarters. Framed in 2x6, built for 1500sf interior expansion without touching an inch of slab space. **Add 1500sf of living space for pennies on the dollar of building new, and still have 1500sf of garage space!**

**RV and Boat storage**
- 40' x 12' paved, solar-roofed pad with electric, water, and sewer hookups — ready for an RV, tiny home, or additional guest space
- 30 x 12' paved and covered storage adjacent to the building. Perfect for storing a large boat (we had a 26' x 8.5x pontoon in there, easily).

**Power for now, and your future**
- All-electric build. No gas, no propane. Produce all the energy you use, and more! (currently, the power company OWES US $322...and counting!)
- 90-panel, 24kW owned solar system (Enphase monitored) covers all electricity needs. Add Enphase batteries and go off-grid in minutes, if desired, or continue overproducing and sell it back to the power company!
- 20,000-gallon rainwater collection system with UV sterilization, backed by a well
- All systems stayed fully operational through recent extreme weather events

**Location**
- 25 min to downtown Austin
- 8 min to H-E-B
- 11 min to Costco
- Zoned to Leander ISD; multiple schools within 7–15 minutes
- 13 min to Cedar Park Regional Medical Center

**The Bottom Line**

This is a rare combination: a move-in-ready modern farmhouse, a business-ready building primed for interior buildout, energy and water independence, and a tax structure that dramatically lowers your true cost of ownership — plus owner financing to make it even more attainable. Schedule a private tour to see it for yourself.
