Giddings, TX 78942 (Lee County)
About this property
Located just 3.4 miles south of Giddings on Highway 77, this 38.32-acre tract offers a rare combination of location, productivity, and long-term upside. Less than five minutes to downtown Giddings, approximately one hour to Austin, and under two hours to Houston, it sits squarely in the growth corridor while maintaining true rural character. The topography is gently rolling, with elevations ranging from approximately 430’ along the creek to 470’ near Highway 77, providing natural drainage and multiple build site options. Pin Oak Creek, an ephemeral creek, traverses the center of the property, adding character and seasonal water influence. The balance of the ranch is improved pasture, currently suited for cattle grazing and hay production, with a healthy mix of open ground and mature tree cover. With over 430 feet of Highway 77 frontage, the property benefits from strong access and visibility. The layout supports continued agricultural use while also lending itself to residential, recreational, or potential commercial consideration.

About the Area
TBD US Highway 77 None S is located in Giddings, 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.
Giddings had an estimated population of 5,085 as of 2023. The 78942 zip code has a median household income of $60,084, a median home value of $235,600, and a median age of 39.7. The average household size is 2.58 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.
