Property Description

20+ acres of amazing privacy. Property is on a cul-de-sac with a quarter-mile stretch of road in front creating privacy and safety for children, event parking, biking, horses, etc. This previous pastureland has been rejuvenated to a healthy, original wild state, with accessible walking paths, clearings, and beautiful distant views. This is a valuable wildlife habitat (Wildlife tax exemption in place) with an abundance of edibles including prickly pear fruit, dewberries, Texas persimmons, and Agarita berries. There's a rare wetland area and many acres of prime farmland soil. A gorgeous deep pond with incredibly quiet days for meditation, swimming, canoeing. This pond is Rich with fish, frogs, and includes a live oak grove. It also hosts an abundance of birdlife and incredible views. This is a yearly migration destination for painted buntings (they breed and nest here annually from April to August) The pond is typically full year-round. The beautiful 100-year-old farmhouse has very strong bones, all original cabinetry from the 1920s, an original clawfoot tub and is ready for your loving restoration. There is rain-water catchment for gardening. Sunrise, sunset, moonrise, and moonset are consistently viewable from the magical front porch. Unlike other properties in the area, there is water accessibility, with potential for putting in several water meters along the east fence-line easement, which could also be used as an additional driveway that runs the length of the property. This land is surrounded by hundreds of acres of wild and pastureland to the south and east…hence the quiet, privacy, and views. After my 30-year stewardship here, I'm hoping to pass the torch to those who will love and care for this sacred land and historic old home. Surrounding properties are also for sale creating a total of approximately 45 acres and giving access to Old Lockhart
