490 John Craft Rd Welcome to 490 John Craft Rd, a private 77+/- acre Hill Country ranch on a quiet dead-end county road. Surrounded by tall pines and wide-open space, this property offers real privacy with easy access-15 minutes to Bastrop, 50 minutes to downtown Austin, and about 40 minutes to the airport. The land is fully fenced and cross-fenced, well suited for a full-time homestead, horse property, or weekend retreat. The ranch is anchored by a 3, 142+/- sq ft custom home built with classic Texas style. A stone exterior, metal roof, and wraparound porches open to a spacious layout with vaulted wood-beam ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace. The updated kitchen features painted cabinets, quartz countertops, and a Wolf range-functional for daily use or hosting. The primary bedroom is on the main level with access to a private deck overlooking the pines. The attached bath includes dual vanities and a walk-in shower. Downstairs are additional bedrooms and a bonus space ideal for an office, gym, or storage. Bathrooms throughout have been updated with clean, practical finishes. Outside, rolling terrain, mature pines, native grasses, wildflowers, and a peaceful pond support abundant wildlife, including Whitetail deer, turkey, and hogs. An existing ag exemption helps keep property taxes low. Improvements include covered parking, horse stables, a chicken coop, and a 50' x 80' barn/hangar with efficiency living quarters and a concrete helipad-well over $200, 000 to replace. 490 John Craft Rd is a true Texas ranch-private, functional, and built for room to roam. *Additional acreage available
