Lexington, TX 78947 (Lee County)
About this property
It’s said that old houses have both a soul and a story to tell… Let this 115 year old, 1,662 sqft - 2/2 classic American Foursquare, with open sun-drenched rooms, tall beamed ceilings and original wood flooring be part of your story to tell. Set back from a quiet private road, and at the front of over twelve, densely wooded acres, with over 1.5 miles of maintained walking trails, a sweet she-shed, a garden fenced to protect it from the abundant wildlife the property attracts, a "paradise" for dogs with a huge fenced yard, and a coop for chickens, this property offers plenty of opportunities for story making. A broad front porch with a set of wide steps welcomes you in and an elevated back deck makes it easy to sit and enjoy the scenery, entertain often or dine al fresco every day. Rows of windows flood the rooms with natural light and beg for the blinds to be left open to enjoy the beautiful, natural views and the many native birds that outdoor feeders attract. The house features large, open rooms downstairs (an Entry, Living w/dining area, Kitchen, huge Office area, Primary Bedroom with EnSuite Bath and a Guest Bath) that naturally flow from one room to another and a single upstairs room with lots of nooks and crannies that, on occasion, is used as a bedroom for guests, but could just as easily work as a craft or speciality room too. In this day of instant gratification, high-tech everything and the hustle and bustle of busy lives, let this place be a respite to remind you what matters most; a quiet place to step back, take a deep breath, unwind and enjoy the peaceful solitude of home.

Location
About the Area
1139 Private Road 7009 Rd is located in Lexington, Texas, in Lee County. Lee County sits in the post oak savanna east of Austin, anchored by Giddings, a small agricultural city bisected by US-290 that has seen modest growth from Austin metro expansion. The county maintains a working agricultural character while proximity to Austin makes it increasingly attractive for acreage buyers.
The Little Brazos River and Yegua Creek drain much of Lee County, and the terrain features sandy post oak soils characteristic of the Lost Pines transition zone. The landscape is gentler than the Hill Country proper, with open pastures, wooded creek bottoms, and sandy-soiled ranchland.
Lexington had an estimated population of 1,493 as of 2023. The 78947 zip code has a median household income of $81,371, a median home value of $276,900, and a median age of 41.1. The average household size is 2.61 people.
Cattle ranching, poultry farming, oil and gas production, and Austin metro spillover define Lee County's economy. The county attracts buyers seeking affordable acreage within 60 miles of Austin's employment centers.
