3744 Mule Creek Rd
About this property
Pull through the custom gate and the first thing you notice is how well cared for this property is. Chip sealed gravel drive, mowed pasture, a clean camp pad, nothing here to undo. Sixty-five acres in southeast Caldwell County with the expensive work already behind you. The well was drilled in 2018 to 603 feet and tested at 40 GPM with 20 feet of drawdown after twelve hours, submersible pump in service. The septic was permitted, installed and county approved in 2019. Electricity is on site, including the wellhouse. Pull in, hook up, stay the weekend. The land rolls. High ground along the road falls about 46 feet to the southwest into an interior draw and a pond, which is where the game moves. Improved and native pasture with scattered motte cover, perimeter fenced, 30.66 acres of cropland per FSA records, and dark brown sandy clay and sandy loam to 48 inches. Whitetail on camera. Blinds set and feeders out, both negotiable. Held under a 1-d-1 wildlife valuation with the 2025 annual report filed, which keeps 2025 taxes near $661. The habitat work has been done and documented. A buyer who continues the management keeps the valuation. About 1,966 feet of frontage on Mule Creek Road (CR 134), recently repaved by the county, wrapping the north corner across two sides. No house, and no reason to camp rough. The 31 ft RV under canopy conveys, along with the 40 ft and 20 ft storage containers, the wellhouse, skinning rack, concrete water trough, custom entry gate and interior road. Seller is believed to own an undivided 50 percent mineral interest and it is negotiable. A 1924 pipeline easement of record crosses the south portion and is believed to be abandoned. Outside the 100-year floodplain. Unincorporated county, not within a city ETJ. Survey, state well report, septic permit and county approval, and wildlife annual report available. Shown by appointment with the listing agent present.

Location
About the Area
3744 Mule Creek Rd is located in Harwood, Texas, in Caldwell County. Caldwell County lies at the southern edge of the Hill Country transition, centered on Lockhart, the Barbecue Capital of Texas, home to legendary pitmasters whose craft has drawn food pilgrims from around the world. The county blends working-class Texas tradition with proximity to the booming Austin corridor.
The San Marcos River forms part of the county's northern boundary, and the Plum Creek watershed drains much of the county's rolling blackland prairie and post oak savanna. The terrain is gentler than the Hill Country proper, with broad agricultural plains transitioning to wooded creek bottoms.
Harwood had an estimated population of 52 as of 2023. The 78632 zip code has a median household income of $63,250, a median home value of $184,400, and a median age of 42.5. The average household size is 2.44 people.
Agriculture, barbecue tourism, manufacturing, and Austin metro spillover define Caldwell County's economy. Lockhart has seen significant investment as buyers priced out of Austin seek affordable acreage and small-town living within 40 miles of downtown.
