About this property
This 225-acre Bastrop County ranch combines productivity, recreation, and privacy in a premier setting. Completely hog-fenced, the land offers highly improved pastures alongside carefully managed habitat for deer, turkey, and native wildlife. With frontage on Antioch Road, the improvements are placed for seclusion, while the convergence of the Post Oak Savannah and Bastrop’s Lost Pines regions creates a striking landscape of pines, live oaks, post oaks, and pin oaks. Recognized as both 2018 Rancher of the Year and 2018 Conservation Rancher of the Year by the NRCS, the property reflects a legacy of stewardship and attention to detail. The 3,741-square-foot main home includes three bedrooms, three baths, and a large office. A chef’s kitchen anchors the home with a large island, dual commercial refrigerators, six-burner stove, and farmhouse sink, complemented by custom cabinetry, flooring, and fixtures. Expansive eastern views unfold from the back porch. A 1,000-square-foot guest barndominium with double 25-by-60 lean-tos offers abundant storage and flexible living space. Ranch infrastructure is designed for efficiency, with 14,000 feet of interior fencing dividing 11 pastures for rotational grazing. Two wells supply water across the property, including a new 2024 well producing 75 GPM at 500 feet and another from 2010 producing the same volume at 750 feet. Multiple troughs and five ponds ensure consistent water access for livestock and wildlife. Additional improvements include a 50-by-60 covered horse barn with stalls, cattle chute, and working pens. Blending natural beauty with first-class improvements, this ranch is a rare opportunity to own a productive and thoughtfully managed property in one of Texas’ most unique ecological regions.

About the Area
705 Antioch Rd is located in Paige, Texas, in Bastrop County. Bastrop County sits at the eastern edge of the Texas Hill Country transition zone, blending the Lost Pines forest, an isolated stand of loblolly pines separated from the East Texas Piney Woods by 100 miles, with open ranch land and the growing spillover of the Austin metro.
The Colorado River flows through the county, and the Lost Pines ecosystem creates a uniquely lush landscape unusual for Central Texas. Bastrop State Park preserves thousands of acres of pine forest that survived and recovered from the devastating 2011 wildfires.
Paige had an estimated population of 89 as of 2023. The 78659 zip code has a median household income of $100,625, a median home value of $332,800, and a median age of 47. The average household size is 2.6 people.
Bastrop County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Texas, driven by Austin metro expansion, the Tesla Gigafactory nearby, and SpaceX's Starbase proximity. Agriculture, timber, and tourism coexist with rapid residential and commercial development.
