You'll have a hard time finding a cattle place that is better cared for by its owner than these 70 acres only 10 miles NE of Lockhart off of FM 20 and conveniently situated just 30 miles from ABIA, and 23 miles from Bastrop! Within the COMPLETELY UNRESTRICTED full and cross-fenced property are 5 tanks supplemented by 4 water wells(one being 600 ft deep and a massive flow rate), pastures full of lush coastal Bermuda that has supported 60 heads of healthy cattle, and a well-maintained trail system that winds through the scattered beautiful Post Oaks! A perfectly elevated future homesite in the center of the property offers panoramic views over Caldwell County and a downward sloping look towards the heavily oak tree-lined Spanish Oak Creek area in the back. Over the years, constant attention has been paid to preventing, removing, and clearing any mesquite or unwanted brush encroaching on the property. Just past the front 9-acre pasture and at the end of the road coming in from the gate, you'll find the working cattle pens, corrals, and chute to make loading easy underneath the shade provided by a towering Post Oak. A short walk from the pen area is an 1800 SF storage barn for either hay storage, farm & ranch equipment, or both. There are 2 other small barns/sheds for storage as needed, along with the manufactured home that's currently used for storage, which can be removed or demolished if desired. The producing wells on the property have very little output, so plugging and abandoning them has been discussed with the RR Commission. Along with the existing improvements, an Ag Exemption is in place, making it ready for someone to start their own weekend or full-time ranching operation, establish their homestead, or simply use it as a recreational property. Being inside Aqua's CCN with future line extension plans and enough road frontage to give entry options for a private road to go straight back, a small tract subdivision would be pretty straightforward
