You’ve probably heard that Texas is more affordable than places like California or New York — but how far does your money really go? In Bastrop, $300,000 can still get you a great home, and in many cases, it offers more space, more features, and more land than what you’d find in Austin or other Central Texas cities.
Here’s what you can expect when shopping for homes in Bastrop with a $300K budget in 2025:
1. Single-Family Homes with Yard Space
In Bastrop, $300K often gets you a 3-bedroom, 2-bath single-family home between 1,300–1,800 sq ft. Most homes in this range include a 2-car garage, a fenced backyard, and are either recently built or well-maintained.
You’ll find many of these homes in neighborhoods like Hunters Crossing, Riverside Grove, or select sections of The Colony.
2. Brand-New Builds
Yes — you can get new construction for $300K in Bastrop. Builders in communities like Pecan Park, River’s Bend, and some parts of Tahitian Village are offering homes in the high $200s to low $300s range. These homes come with builder warranties, energy-efficient features, and modern design touches like granite counters and vinyl plank flooring.
3. Less Competition, More Flexibility
While Austin’s $300K market is cutthroat (and usually involves condos or fixer-uppers), Bastrop gives you more buying power and a chance to negotiate. Whether it’s closing cost assistance, a home warranty, or flexible move-in dates — buyers here often have more leverage.
4. Room to Grow
Many $300K homes in Bastrop come with larger lot sizes than you’d find in the city. That means more space for a garden, a playscape, or even future expansions. Some properties even back up to greenbelts or walking trails.
