Your Serene 21.45-Acre Retreat Near Smithville, Texas Discover a harmonious blend of natural beauty and thoughtful design on this exceptional 21.45-acre Cattle Ranch property, located just 7 minutes south of historic Smithville. Perfectly positioned for convenience—20 minutes to Bastrop and 50 minutes to Austin—this ranch combines rural tranquility with modern practicality. The crown jewel of the estate is a breathtaking Roman basilica-inspired pole barn, a structural marvel crafted from massive Bastrop County yellow pine trunks. The posts, anchored 6 feet deep in concrete, support a soaring clerestory design that bathes the space in sunlight. Reinforced with an industrial-grade concrete slab, this versatile space invites grand gatherings, creative projects, or tranquil contemplation. Nature thrives here: A picturesque pond graces the front acreage, while a wooded wet-weather creek meanders along the rear boundary, teeming with wildlife. Multiple cleared homesites offer flexibility for a main residence, guest cabins, or recreational outbuildings. Practical infrastructure includes it’s own private gate entrance, a dependable water well (10 GPM) delivering filtered water to the property, paired with electricity from Bluebonnet Electrical Cooperative. The charming well house—insulated, air-conditioned, and pet-friendly with a doggy door—is securely enclosed by a 5-foot fence and creating a 2,800 square foot safe space for your pets to thrive. As evenings unfold, savor panoramic Texas sunsets that paint the sky in fiery hues over your private pond and rolling acreage. Whether crafting a quiet homestead, an equestrian haven, or an artist’s retreat, this ranch offers endless potential. Hike through oak-dappled trails, host alfresco dinners under the barn’s majestic roof, or simply unwind in your own slice of Central Texas serenity. A legacy property where practicality meets poetry—don’t miss this rare opportunity.
