Description
7-acre lakefront property on Foster Lake with utilities in place—just 45 minutes from downtown Austin and minutes from Smithville in unincorporated Bastrop County. This unrestricted tract offers a rare blend of privacy, functionality, and location. With direct lake access, mature oaks and pines, and no HOA, it's an ideal setting for a private homestead, off-grid living, or redevelopment. Foster Lake is a peaceful, scenic body of water popular for fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and enjoying the natural beauty of the area. Known for its calm waters and quiet atmosphere, it's a favorite spot for locals looking to relax and recharge. The property also backs to community greenspace, enhancing both privacy and usability. The land has been maintained without chemical use for over 17 years—ideal for permaculture, regenerative agriculture, or nature-forward living. The existing 3-bed, 2-bath, approx. 2, 000 sq ft home is livable and connected to electricity, septic, and public water. While not up to current code, it offers immediate utility and the option to renovate or rebuild. Additional improvements include two 400 sq ft lofted workshops and two new 20’ shipping containers for storage or workspace. No restrictions, direct road access, and close to Austin’s growth corridor—15 minutes to Smithville, 25 to Bastrop, 30 to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, and under 40 to Tesla’s Gigafactory. Note: Home is being sold as-is and priced based on land value and existing infrastructure.Show Description
