Imagine acquiring 155 acres in Manor with 2,700 feet of railroad frontage and preliminary WATCO approval for rail access-a rare combination of infrastructure that opens possibilities most landowners never encounter. Located at 13111 Old Highway 20 in Travis County, this unimproved land parcel sits within Austin's extraterritorial jurisdiction with documented potential for municipal annexation under Senate Bill 2038.

The property's functional advantages stem from its location along a corridor experiencing significant infrastructure development. Old Highway 20, which borders the parcel, appears on the City of Manor's Thoroughfare Map for future expansion to 4 or 5 lanes. Water infrastructure already supports development: an 8-inch water line and 12-inch sewer line run across Old Highway 20 immediately adjacent to the property. Electric service is readily available nearby. This combination of utilities and road infrastructure is foundational for anyone considering horses, agricultural operations, or rural residential development.

The railroad frontage warrants specific attention. WATCO's preliminary approval for rail access means potential industrial or agricultural logistics applications most rural properties cannot accommodate. For equestrian operations, agricultural ventures, or specialized farming requiring equipment transport, this rail access eliminates cost barriers that typically plague remote properties.

Manor itself has become a growth corridor between Austin and the northeastern communities. The area borders emerging manufacturing and commercial development, which influences both property values and infrastructure timelines. The 155-acre size provides genuine flexibility-enough land for substantial horse facilities with pastures, multiple barns, arena space, and residential improvements, or alternatively, development potential aligned with the surrounding industrial trajectory.

Current market context matters: the property has been listed 400 days, suggesting the market is pricing in development uncertainty. Any buyer must conduct independent research into annexation timelines, rail service agreements with WATCO, and Old Highway 20 expansion schedules through the City of Manor. These variables determine whether the land functions as a private equestrian or agricultural retreat, a development asset, or some combination.

For the buyer seeking functional acreage with infrastructure already in place and meaningful transportation assets-whether for horses, livestock, or future-focused agricultural operations-this represents unusual availability in the Austin region.
