Bastrop, TX 78602 (Bastrop County)
About this property
If you’ve been hunting for acreage that actually feels private, this is it. Almost 15 wooded acres tucked near the end of Cody Lane in Bastrop, with Lake Bastrop a short hop away and highway access that keeps Austin, Elgin, and the rest of the area within reach. Walk the property and you’ll get elevation, a wet-weather creek, and a mix of oak, pine, cedar, and hardwood—recently opened up with trail clearing and yaupon pulled back so the big trees breathe again. The living setup is a loft cabin on stilts: roughly 640 square feet upstairs with a full kitchen (including a new gas range) and an updated full bath, with covered parking underneath for trucks, boats, or gear, plus a private lower room you can use as a second sleeping space. Utilities are practical and ready—Bluebonnet power, conventional septic, a 10,000-gallon rainwater system feeding the cabin, and Starlink so you’re not cut off from the world. No HOA. Unrestricted. Sandy loam and rich creek bottoms that invite horses, a garden, a cabin rental, a hunting camp, or simply a place to disappear on weekends without disappearing from real life.

About the Area
242 Cody Ln is located in Bastrop, 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.
Bastrop had an estimated population of 10,484 as of 2023. The 78602 zip code has a median household income of $86,976, a median home value of $310,300, and a median age of 38.1. The average household size is 2.67 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.
