MOTIVATED SELLER!! Please come check out this beautiful 25.62 acres just minutes from downtown Elgin and 290. With no traffic you can be in Austin in less than 30 minutes. Buy this great land with a cute 2/2 and a newly built barn and paddock area for horses or donkeys. This was an organic farm when seller purchased in 2019. The onset of Covid caused the farming to stop but the irrigation systems are still in place and can be easily hooked back up. This property comes with a 2500 gallon water tank and two greenhouse areas with electricity outfitted. Lots of sheds and outhouses to use for farming or gardening. This wide open space lends to great views of the sky and sunsets.
