About This Home
Almost too good to believe! Discover a private, unrestricted large-acre property just under three miles from town, complete with fencing, majestic oak trees, a charming residence, and a massive 40' x 80' barn/shop.
If you've been searching for the perfect place to stake your claim in Texas, look no further. Surrounded by other expansive tracts, this property offers unparalleled peace, privacy, and space.
This property comes ready with two excellent wells and a septic system already in place. The manufactured home offers a comfortable option for either permanent living or as a temporary residence while you build the estate of your dreams.
The spacious barn is powered and designed to support a wide range of uses—perfect for a business, ranch operations, or livestock, with three built-in 10x12 areas ready for animals. A generous 16' entrance door easily accommodates large equipment and storage needs.
On the market for the first time in 17 years, this is a rare opportunity. Come walk the land and let your imagination envision all the possibilities.
Privacy and space define 545 County Road 258 in Bertram, a 29.89-acre sanctuary just under three miles from town that offers genuine escape without isolation. The property sits in Burnet County, surrounded by similarly expansive tracts that create a buffer against suburban sprawl while keeping essential services and shopping within quick reach.
The manufactured home itself, built in 2001, provides secure, comfortable living at 1,184 square feet with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Two excellent wells and a functioning septic system mean you own your utilities independently - no reliance on municipal systems, no surprise rate increases. The home serves as either permanent residence or a solid foundation while you develop the property further. Security starts with fencing that encloses the perimeter, establishing clear boundaries and control over who accesses your land.
The real value lies in the 40-foot by 80-foot barn and shop structure, a purpose-built workspace that anchors serious land use. The barn features three built-in 10x12 areas configured for livestock or equipment storage, a 16-foot entrance door that swallows tractors and large machinery, and full power infrastructure. Whether you envision ranch operations, a home business, vehicle restoration, or agricultural pursuits, the structure exists and functions today - no permitting delays, no construction uncertainty.
Majestic oak trees scatter across the acreage, providing natural windbreaks, shade, and the aesthetic character that defines Hill Country property. The land itself remains unrestricted, meaning your use options expand far beyond what deed-restricted subdivisions allow. This matters for anyone serious about hobby ranching, small-scale livestock, equipment storage, or future development.
Bertram sits roughly 65 miles northwest of downtown Austin, positioning you at the periphery of urban influence while maintaining affordable land values. The location trades daily commuting convenience for genuine autonomy - you own enough space to live entirely on your terms. The property has remained in the same ownership for 17 years, suggesting stability and established land management.
At $830 per square foot for the home structure alone, the price reflects rural acreage and the barn's substantial value. This configuration appeals to buyers seeking a working property with immediate utility rather than speculative land. You get immediate occupancy, existing infrastructure, and proven systems already installed and operational - the foundation for a long-term Hill Country homestead.
