Country Living Just Minutes from Austin
726 Mesa Drive, Del Valle, Texas | Bastrop County | 8.04 Acres
Tucked away in the quiet countryside of Bastrop County, 726 Mesa Drive offers the best of both worlds — the peace of rural living with downtown Austin just 30 minutes away. Set on 8.04 acres with a 300-acre neighbor behind you, privacy and space are never in short supply.
From the front porch, take in a rare view of the Austin skyline, a reminder that the energy of the city is close when you want it — and comfortably distant when you don’t. The 1,260-square-foot home features 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and an open floor plan that’s easy to make your own. A propane range, a fenced-in garden, and a 900-gallon rainwater catchment tank support a simpler, more self-sufficient lifestyle.
Beyond the home, a 1,200-square-foot insulated workshop offers endless flexibility. With two rooms, a loft, concrete floors, spray foam insulation, and full electrical service, it’s ready for creative projects, storage, or work-from-home possibilities. There’s also a small .10-acre pond that adds a peaceful touch to the landscape.
Practical features like a gated entrance, perimeter fencing, a partitioned yard for pets, and cross-fenced pastures make managing the property easy. With no HOA restrictions, you’re free to live the way you choose — whether that’s growing a garden, raising a few animals, or just enjoying the wide-open space. This is where country life meets city convenience.
