Description
Tucked behind a charming picket fence on 5.5 unrestricted acres of mature trees and cleared land, this rare Elgin farmhouse delivers the Texas country lifestyle without sacrificing city access. The main home offers 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths across an open, light-filled floor plan with wood floors, a breakfast bar kitchen, covered front porch, and back deck made for Texas sunsets. The fully separate guest house — approximately 872 sq ft with 1 bed and 1 full bath, its own kitchen and private entrance — unlocks multigenerational living, a dedicated home office suite, or income-producing short-term rental potential in one of Central Texas's fastest-growing corridors. Outside, a lighted stone path winds through the trees to a private gazebo, patio, and hot tub — the kind of backyard that makes every weekend feel like a retreat. Multiple storage buildings, a 2-car garage, automatic sprinkler system, pergola, and fully fenced grounds round out a property built for people who actually use their land. Recently cleared and horse-ready. John Deere tractor and riding lawn mower negotiable conveyance. Zone X — confirmed out of all 100- and 500-year floodplains. No HOA. Aerobic septic professionally serviced and fully documented. New roof. Whether you're a remote professional craving Hill Country-adjacent space, a family seeking room to grow, or an investor eyeing Airbnb and long-term rental upside, this property delivers on every front. Less than 5 minutes to downtown Elgin, 30 minutes to downtown Austin, approximately 25 minutes to Tesla Gigafactory Texas in Austin and Samsung's semiconductor campus in Taylor. Positioned perfectly along the SH 130 growth corridor where land values and employer presence continue to climb. Elgin ISD — with the new Trinity Ranch Elementary just minutes away. Conventional, VA, Texas Vet, and Cash financing accepted. Preferred title: Texas National Title.

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have been very impressed with the leadership and curriculum at Elgin High School. They have partnered with ACC Elgin and students are now graduating with enough college credits to be juniors in college! They work hard to stay up to date on all of the latest technology and academics. I have met several parents who were very pleased with the education their kids received at Elgin High School. As far as college and career readiness, Elgin High School is top notch!Other Review6y ago - Elgin Middle School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI recently moved to the area, and I am not pleased with the school district as a whole. I have 2 children that are enrolled in school, and I am questioning how they passed to go to the next grade. I find myself teaching them more than they learn in school. There are no parent teacher conferences and you will not know your child's progress unless you ask. Even asking, they would tell you "Your child is doing great", but I see otherwise. The middle school is ran like a prison because the kids only focus on dating and fighting. There were too many fights that occurred in one year and no respect for each other or the teachers. The schools are overcrowded and outdated. This was not a good experience at all. I hate having to pay taxes to go towards such a waste. Lastly the worst thing is there is no good communication with the district transportation department. I had to take and pick up my kids every day because after I enrolled them and filled out the form so my children would be assigned a bus and they never responded or sent anything. If you ask, no one knows anything either. They have a summer bridge program where the students are required to attend for 3 weeks and said they would be providing transportation during the summer and once again, they did not follow through nor respond to emails. So, I am having to figure out a schedule for my job that will allow me to pick them up.Other Review2y ago - Elgin Elementary School
