5612 HWY 71 E Situated on just over 2 acres with prime Highway 71 frontage, this late-1800s farmhouse offers a rare opportunity to restore a piece of Texas history while benefiting from key modern upgrades already in place. The approximately 1, 600 sq ft home features a unique architectural design with a distinctive roofline, spacious layout, and original character throughout. Inside, you'll find large living areas, high ceilings, and hidden potential-including original wood flooring beneath the living room carpet-ready to be brought back to life. Major improvements have already been completed, including a new metal roof (2020), HVAC system (2023), and spray foam attic insulation (2023)-providing a strong foundation for renovation while helping reduce future capital expenses. The property is well-equipped for country living and functionality, featuring two water wells (one servicing the home and one dedicated for gardening), a classic windmill, and four outbuildings offering ample storage, workshop space, or agricultural use. The land is mostly level and usable, with mature trees and open areas ideal for a variety of uses. With direct highway access and high visibility, this property presents excellent potential for commercial use, a live/work setup, or future development. Whether you're a contractor, investor, or buyer with a vision for historic restoration, this property offers flexibility and upside that's increasingly hard to find in Bastrop County. Additional value: Tractor, tiller, and mower are negotiable with the sale. Bring your vision and unlock the full potential of this one-of-a-kind property.
