399 Upper Elgin River RD
Elgin, TX 78621
$N/A
Tucked behind a charming picket fence on 5.5 unrestricted acres of mature trees and cleared land, this rare Elgin farmhouse delivers the Texas country lifestyle without sacrificing city access. The main home offers 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths across an open, light-filled floor plan with wood floors, a breakfast bar kitchen, covered front porch, and back deck made for Texas sunsets. The fully separate guest house — approximately 872 sq ft with 1 bed and 1 full bath, its own kitchen and private entrance — unlocks multigenerational living, a dedicated home office suite, or income-producing short-term rental potential in one of Central Texas's fastest-growing corridors.
Outside, a lighted stone path winds through the trees to a private gazebo, patio, and hot tub — the kind of backyard that makes every weekend feel like a retreat. Multiple storage buildings, a 2-car garage, automatic sprinkler system, pergola, and fully fenced grounds round out a property built for people who actually use their land. Recently cleared and horse-ready. John Deere tractor and riding lawn mower negotiable conveyance.
Zone X — confirmed out of all 100- and 500-year floodplains. No HOA. Aerobic septic professionally serviced and fully documented. New roof. Whether you're a remote professional craving Hill Country-adjacent space, a family seeking room to grow, or an investor eyeing Airbnb and long-term rental upside, this property delivers on every front.
Less than 5 minutes to downtown Elgin, 30 minutes to downtown Austin, approximately 25 minutes ...
