About this home
Diamond in the rough on five acres between Bastrop and Smithville with highway visibility, flexible living space, and live/work potential. Located in the Alum Creek area, this property offers room to create a homestead, home business, or multi-generational living setup while enjoying the space and possibilities of rural Central Texas.
The property features a large manufactured home with five bedrooms and three baths, along with multiple additions creating six additional rooms that can serve as offices, hobby spaces, storage, or expanded living areas. Two screened porches provide comfortable outdoor spaces to relax and enjoy the country setting.
For many years the current owner operated a small food business from the property, producing egg rolls for a loyal customer base. A room with a commercial-style kitchen remains in place and may offer opportunities for continued small-scale food production, catering, or other home-based business ventures.
The five-acre tract includes numerous raised garden beds ideal for vegetable production, homesteading, or small-scale agriculture. Alum Creek runs through a corner of the property, adding natural character to the land.
With its flexible layout and acreage, the property may support a variety of uses including multi-generational living, collaborative or intentional living arrangements, or live/work opportunities. With additional infrastructure planning, buyers may explore potential for RV or tiny home setups, subject to county guidelines.
The property also offers excellent highway visibility and direct access between Bastrop and Smithville, along with an additional electrical drop near the front of the property. Currently being cleaned and prepared for showings, this property offers a unique opportunity for buyers with vision in the growing Bastrop–Smithville corridor....
