About this House

Secluded at Salado's western edge, this lakeside property is a hunting, fishing and ranching paradise. Overlooking the shimmering waters of Stillhouse Hollow Lake, this extraordinary 34-acre property is far more than a home, it is a rare and storied piece of Texas heritage. Built in the 1960s and overlooking what was once the Lampasas River, this land carries the legacy of the historic Chisholm Trail, where cattle drives once carved their path through the heart of the state.
The rustic 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence, used as a weekend getaway and cattle ranch, offers a quiet, unassuming retreat, allowing the land itself to take center stage. From its vantage point, the property captures sweeping views of the lake, now a premier fishing destination, while preserving the sense of seclusion and privacy that makes it feel worlds away.
What makes this offering truly exceptional is its provenance. This acreage sits on what was once the original road descending to the river along the Chisholm Trail, placing you in direct connection with one of the most iconic chapters of Texas history. Opportunities to own land with this level of historical significance, natural beauty, and uninterrupted acreage are exceedingly rare.
The cattle still graze. The deer and turkey still play on this agricultural exempt and fenced land. The land fans out as it backs to Stillhouse Hollow Lake, affording direct access to more than 2,000 acres of public shoreline to explore. Renowned for its clear waters and fabulous fishing, the Army Corps of Engineers-managed lake is your neighbor and your imagination is your only limit. Salado's historic Main Street and golf course are minutes away.
Whether you envision a private escape, a legacy ranch, or an investment in a one-of-a-kind setting, this property stands as a trophy holding, where history, landscape, and solitude converge.
Own a piece of the trail. Own a piece of Texas.

    "People love dogs in Salado. Walkable and local business are not bothered with dogs in their stores. Almost every business has watering dishes for dogs outside their doors."
  • Jenny6eng
    "We live on a couple of acres, so dogs are in almost every yard. Lots of people walk their dogs in the area and some, unfortunately, let their dogs run free, but most respect their neighbors and care for their pets enough to keep them fenced and safe."
  • Jenny6eng
    "It is friendly, but quiet and peaceful. I love all of the trees. I love that there is very little traffic and the neighbors care about their property and neighbors."
  • Eric J.
    "Every Christmas the city puts up a lot of decorations and lights on main street. It is very beautiful "
  • Lisassanchez
    "I love the large lots and country feel. It is worth the extra drive to live away from the cookie cutters and in a custom home community."
  • Derek B.
    "Neighborhood is quiet and family friendly. Downtown Salado is fun and has great places to eat and drink with friends and family. Community guidelines are well respected."
  • Jessica S.
    "There are too many people around here that leave their dogs in their back yard all day and/or night. Their dogs bark at you or your pets or anything they see. Then it sets off your dogs from in the house because they can hear those dogs barking. It’s really annoying that people are too lazy to let their dogs inside when they hear them causing a nuisance. "
  • Samsbored14
    "Salado is a very safe neighborhood with a demographic consisting of mainly 50+ yr old home owners. "
  • saladoeaglepride55
    "I have lived in Salado for about seven years, moved from East Texas and never looked back. My children both attend the best public school district in Central Texas. The Elementary School Principle knows every student by name and knows the parents. What I love most is how the teachers and the principle greet the students in the morning and supervise the afternoon pickup. The community is incredible, with festivals throughout the year, great parks for the family, plentiful shopping on Main Street, and lots of local cuisine (only two chain restaurants). I don't normally write reviews, but this community is worth it to have the recognition it deserves. "
  • Ryan H.
    "Salado has the best of everything you want in small community and close enough to everything else. "
