Description

Located just 6 miles south of Elgin off FM 1704 on Balch Road, this 62-acre more or less property offers an outstanding mix of ranching, recreational, and investment potential in one of Central Texas’ fastest-growing areas. Currently under ag exemption and outside the ETJ, the land has supported cattle and hay production for more than 60 years, making it well suited for cow/calf operations, hay fields, horses, or future development opportunities. The property includes two livestock ponds, Aqua Water service, a working water well, Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative utilities, and recently added cable internet access. Improvements include a doublewide mobile home, guest house, workshop/garage, three agricultural buildings, and additional storage structures. All improvements convey as-is and are assigned no value. Ideally situated just 1 mile from the future Legacy Oak Middle School (opening 2027), the property offers quick access to Hwy 290 and SH 95 and is only minutes from major employers including Tesla Gigafactory, Starlink, Agilent Technologies, and Samsung Electronics Semiconductor.
