About 11705 Fm 439
Shaw Branch Ranch offers a rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind 105+/- acre multi-purpose estate located between FM 439 and I-14, west of I-35 between Austin and Waco. This property functions as both a horse/cattle operation and a recreational retreat. A picnic pavilion overlooks the water, providing a perfect setting for sunrises, sunsets, and gatherings with family and friends. Wildlife is abundant, including doves, purple martins, hummingbirds, owls, deer, and occasional eagles. Although conveniently close to town, the gated entrance and paved private road (running from FM 439 to Jackrabbit Road) create a peaceful, secluded feel. The road is suitable for walking, biking, and everyday ranch use. The land features open pastures, massive oaks, mixed tree coverage, and a stocked tank—ideal for horses, cattle, goats, and multiple land-use possibilities. The main home sits on 7 fully fenced acres with views of the lake and surrounding pastures. The home includes approximately 2,900 sq ft with 3 bedrooms, a game room, and outdoor amenities such as a 16x30 in-ground pool and fire pit area. Additional improvements include a 40x45 shop and a 30x54 shop with electricity and a half bath. Roof replaced May 2025. Serious and qualified inquiries will be given the opportunity to tour the property with the listing agent. Must-see multi-use ranch property with significant recreational and agricultural potential.
