I have worked as a Farm and Ranch and Horse Property Specialist for approximately 14 years ( my gosh where does time go???) in Colorado, Arizona, and now here in Texas for the last 5 + years in Bastrop Real Estate and as a Horse Property Specialist. One of my pet peeves is when other Real Estate Professionals take horse related listings and  who don't advertise them properly in my estimation. I think that a property that is developed with horse facilities IE., real horse barns, tack rooms, feed storage, wash racks, round pens, arena in any combination should be called horse properties.  I think that any property that has the POTENTIAL to be a developed  horse property in the future that is indeed horse friendly IE., fenced pastures, zoned for horses, is exactly that....horse friendly!

My husband and I have recently discovered kayaking and are thrilled that there are so many wonderful places to kayak in Bastrop County where we live.  Since we are still "beginners" we haven't kayaked the Colorado River yet but will some day soon.  In the meantime we have taken our kayaks to the South Shore of Lake Bastrop which is located just off Hwy 71 between Bastrop and Paige.  There is a boat ramp and small dock, rest area, restrooms, sandy beach all right there and if you don't have kayaks or canoes you can rent them there.  We put in and went for a leisurely paddle down to the dam.  It was an overcast day and the fish were active.  There were quite a few fishermen out on the lake.  We saw lots of great wildlife as we paddled along the shore line.  It was a wonderful getaway from...

A spectacular site, just minutes from the major route between Austin and Houston, Texas, on the banks of the Colorado River,  and covered with majestic live oak trees, lies waiting to be discovered for someone looking for incredible value and vision.  Yes, the market for golf course property is in the tank at the moment, but just around the corner lies a new day where this terrific property will explode with the expansion of Bastrop and Bastrop County.

We are so excited that Bastrop is getting a new Bark Park!  If you are a dog owner/lover you know how awesome a dog park is!  It took me a long time to understand why dogs don't fight at a dog park...and that is because the park does not belong to any one dog!  They are all a bit out of their element there and they can bring down their defensive barriers and just socialize!  Now I am no dog expert, and I do believe that your first visit to a dog park with your doggie should be handled with some caution on your part at least until you are sure of how your dog will react.  Our Bark Park will be located on a one acre near the police station on Grady Tuck  just off Hwy 71  near the Tractor Supply store.

Austin is a big, beautiful city; there is no doubt about that. But, there are several small towns within 50 miles of Austin that are filled with charm and beauty. Whether you want to get out of the city for a weekend or move to a smaller town. Smithville is a small town in Bastrop County, about 41 miles from Austin. Its population is just at 5,000. It is mostly famous for the 1998 movie "Hope Floats" that starred Sandra Bullock. Smithville is most proud of its recreation center. The center has a large gym, basketball court and has events for the entire community throughout the year. Smithville also has many family owned restaurants, grills and antique shops. Visitors can always find something interesting while visiting. Coupland is east of Austin on Highway 95, between Elgin and Taylor....

Did I ever tell you the story about the first home I ever purchased?  I was 18 years old and was finishing my freshman year of college.  After spending a year living on the 10th floor of a 10 floor high rise in San Angelo, Texas where the wind blows and the buildings sway I was ready to find another option.  The houseing market their is perfect for a young buyer, they have lots of older neighborhoods that were perfect.  I landed my first property in a little area within walking distance from the river (where the North and South Concho meet) and decide it would be where I would live to finish college.  It was a 1980's 3 bedroom 2 bath house that was about 1300 sqft for $50,000.  What a steal!!!!  The house was school bus yellow with brown trim.  The inside had the strangest colors and mu...

Investing can be one of the most exciting yet risk taking decisions in Real Estate or the Stock Market. When drawing comparisons, they may look the same at the end of the day, most likely they look like complete opposites. This all depends on your Realtor or Financial Adviser. Financial advisers may proclaim a 10% return on mutual funds, while aggressive Realtors may claim 10% appreciation rates on speculation. Personally, I believe it all depends on integrity, experience, education, personal goals, and timing. If slick Willy can Guarantee you a return on your investment, then run, don't pass go, and don't collect your $200 dollars.

Piney Ridge is located just across from the Bastrop High school and offers great homes. This subdivision has the Pine Trees that contribute to the uniqueness of the Bastrop Real Estate market. Homes in Piney Ridge are on nice sized lots and range in pricing. However, there are vacant lots or acreage that are currently restricted in regards to endangered species. One client that I sold a home to in Piney Ridge had a neighbor who was being crowded by a vacant lot under contract next door to her house.  Before she could secure financing on the vacant lot listed at 25k, it was purchased by the potential homebuilder. The city informed her that without anyone contesting the subdivision restrictions in court, they could go unattested. Always, remember to contact an experienced Broker before pu...

Tahitian Village is located in Bastrop Texas just 45 minutes from Austin. Tahitian includes huge pine trees, gorgeous hilltop scenery with views, nature filled 18 hole Golf course on the Colorado River, and fabulous homes. The home sites range from the Mid 100's to the 500's. This subdivision is one of a kind and is across from the Bastrop State park, basically sharing the same Tall Pine trees that help define this area. The cliffs that overlook the Colorado River make some lots incredible with views of the countryside for miles and miles. If you are looking for a home nestled in whats equivalent to a forest of Pines and nature, Tahitian Village is arguably the nicest in Bastrop County.

I saw this at one of the local Bastrop trainers facilities.  This happens to be in the boarders tack room.  What an awesome way to create saddle racks and to keep some of these buckets out of the landfills!  It doesn't take much to hang them and they also create a little storage area too.  I am always looking for ways to save some money and save the planet!  Contact me if I can help you look for horse properties or farm and ranch land in Central Texas.
