17809 FM 1100, Elgin, TX 78621

This prime 20.122-acre property offers an incredible investment opportunity in the rapidly growing Elgin area, just minutes from Elgin High School and major retail hubs like HEB, Tractor Supply, and local restaurants. With major developments underway, including large subdivisions by KB Home and Brown Homes, this land is poised for significant commercial and residential growth. Featuring one homes, 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath with a workshop and storage shed (built in 1970)—this property provides immediate rental income potential. Located within the Elgin ETJ and less than 2 miles from the county road line, the land offers great development opportunities, although buyers will need to explore water access options for the vacant portion. A fantastic chance to capitalize on the expanding market in this thriving area.

At 20.122 acres on FM 1100 in Elgin, this Travis County property offers the rare combination of privacy and positioned development potential that discerning investors seek. The land sits just outside the immediate commercial corridor, buffering it from retail noise while keeping it minutes from Elgin High School and the growing commercial nodes along FM 1100 where HEB, Tractor Supply, and regional restaurant chains anchor foot traffic.

The existing 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath residence built in 1970 provides immediate income generation or serves as a caretaker dwelling during development phases. The structure includes practical workshop and storage facilities, recognizing that rural acreage demands utility alongside residential space. HardiPlank and wood siding construction has weathered the Texas climate reliably. The property's current configuration offers flexibility: keep it producing rental income while planning larger use, or begin phased development as Elgin expands outward.

Location data matters here. The property sits within Elgin's ETJ (extraterritorial jurisdiction), positioning it for eventual city utilities and services as municipal infrastructure extends eastward. Less than 2 miles from the county line, it occupies a transition zone where KB Home, Brown Homes, and regional developers are actively building large subdivisions. This proximity to active residential development, without being consumed by it, creates the exact timing many commercial and residential developers prefer.

The core consideration involves water access for the vacant portion. Elgin municipal water is expanding, but current availability varies across the 20 acres. Savvy buyers evaluate these utility frameworks early, as they directly impact development timelines and cost structures. The property's scale and location on FM 1100 open multiple paths: hold for appreciation as surrounding development increases land values, develop residential or mixed-use in phases, or lease to operators seeking staging or equipment yards near the growing Elgin economy.

This acreage represents the kind of unencumbered land that becomes scarce as Austin's growth corridor pushes northeast. Privacy now, optionality later.
