With 1,400 feet of spring-fed Buttermilk Creek and 64.5 acres in Salado, TBD FM 2843 is the kind of Bell County landholding that rarely comes to market. At TBD FM 2843 in Salado, TX 76571, the story is not square footage or finish-out - it is live water, usable acreage, and a location that keeps Austin, Georgetown, and Cedar Park within practical reach.

Priced at $2.25 million, this Farm - Ranch property comes out to roughly $34,900 per acre, a meaningful number for buyers comparing large tracts in the Salado and Bell County corridor. There is no existing home, so year built and price per square foot do not apply in the usual sense. What does apply is frontage, water, tree cover, and long-term optionality. This tract has the kind of creek presence that changes how land lives day to day. Buttermilk Creek draws wildlife, supports the landscape, and gives the property a natural focal point for a future homesite, weekend retreat, or hold strategy.

The setting along FM 2843 puts you near Salado’s small-town core while keeping quick access to the broader Central Texas growth path. Georgetown and Cedar Park are about 25 minutes away, and Downtown Austin is about 45 to 50 minutes depending on traffic and route. That matters for buyers who want acreage without cutting off business, airport access, or city dining. Interstate 35 is the obvious regional spine here, connecting Salado south to Georgetown and Austin and north toward Temple and Waco. Nearby destinations like Salado Creek, Main Street Salado, and local stops around Stagecoach Road give this area more day-to-day texture than many rural listings can claim.

On the ground, the land reads like classic Central Texas. Mature Live Oak, Post Oak, Pecan, Black Walnut, Cedar Elm, Sycamore, Ashe Juniper, and Eve’s Necklace create shade, screening, and habitat. Native grasses and spring wildflowers add another layer of seasonal appeal. Wildlife presence is a real part of the ownership experience here, with Whitetail Deer, Rio Grande Turkey, doves, ducks, coyotes, bobcats, and other native species regularly seen on the property.

School information is not listed in the current property data, so buyers should confirm district and campus assignments directly.

For a buyer thinking about recreation, a future estate site, or long-term land value, TBD FM 2843 offers the kind of flexibility that tends to age well.
