About This Property

Nestled on 30 private acres in McDade, Texas, this updated country estate blends rustic charm with modern design. A signature round turret leads into a light-filled interior with polished concrete floors, a floor-to-ceiling whitewashed stone fireplace, and expansive windows. The open-concept layout seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas. Modern farmhouse style shines in the kitchen, featuring navy cabinetry, butcher block countertops, brass hardware, open shelving, and a farmhouse sink. The main-level primary suite offers an updated bath with a soaking tub, antique vanity, floral vessel sink, arched mirror, and gold fixtures. Upstairs, two bedrooms-one with three custom built-in beds for a guest bunk room-and a full bath surround the turret room, featuring curved walls, porthole windows, a built-in desk, custom wainscoting, and chandelier lighting.

Outdoors, the property features hay-producing pastures and panoramic views. Recent improvements include a new front deck and pergola added in 2025 and a roof replacement in 2019. The private well includes a filtration and softener system, and the property enjoys an agricultural tax exemption. Equestrian amenities feature a custom two-stall horse barn with an attached chicken coop and tack room, pipe-fenced corrals, two outdoor wash racks, and a hitching post. The acreage directly borders Rancho Del Lago, one of the nation's premier Andalusian breeding farms. Combining unique character, contemporary upgrades, and prime Texas land, this sanctuary is ready for its next owner.

Set on 10 private acres in McDade — with an additional adjoining 20 acres available for purchase — this architecturally distinctive home offers a level of character and privacy rarely found within an hour of Austin. Designed for those craving space, light, and a slower pace without sacrificing style, the home feels more like a private retreat than a traditional country property. The signature round turret immediately sets the tone, while inside, polished concrete floors, a floor-to-ceiling whitewashed stone fireplace, and expansive windows create an atmosphere that feels both elevated and deeply inviting. The fully renovated kitchen blends warmth and design with navy cabinetry, brass hardware, butcher block countertops, open shelving, a farmhouse sink, and a statement range hood. The open-concept layout flows effortlessly between the kitchen, dining, and living spaces — ideal for entertaining, quiet mornings, or simply enjoying the surrounding landscape from nearly every room. The main-level primary suite offers peaceful pasture views and a beautifully updated en suite bath with a soaking tub, antique vanity, floral vessel sink, arched mirror, and gold fixtures. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a full bath surround the home's most memorable space: the turret room. Framed by curved walls, porthole windows, botanical wallpaper, custom wainscoting, and chandelier lighting, it functions beautifully as a bedroom, studio, office, or creative retreat. Outside, open pasture and panoramic sky views create a sense of calm and privacy that's increasingly difficult to find near Austin. A new front deck and pergola added in 2025 extend the living space outdoors, while a barn, pipe-fenced corral, private well with filtration and softener system, and current agricultural valuation add practicality to the property's lifestyle appeal. Bordering Rancho Del Lago, one of the nation's premier Andalusian breeding farms, the surrounding landscape remains peaceful and protected.

Set just outside McDade and approximately one hour from Austin, this rare 10-acre tract offers the kind of space, privacy, and flexibility that’s becoming increasingly difficult to find in Central Texas. With county road access and nearby utilities, the property is well-positioned for a future homesite, weekend retreat, recreational use, or long-term investment. Open pasture, expansive sky views, and the peaceful surrounding landscape create a setting that feels secluded while still remaining accessible to Bastrop, Austin, and surrounding areas. Bordering Rancho Del Lago, one of the nation’s premier Andalusian breeding farms, the neighboring views remain scenic, protected, and remarkably untouched. Whether you're looking to build now or secure land in one of the fastest-growing regions outside Austin, this property offers a rare opportunity to own usable Texas acreage with both convenience and character. Additional adjoining acreage and home available separately.
