Land for Sale in Dale, Texas

IMPROVED PRICE | 205± Acres for Sale in Dale, TX

Discover a rare opportunity to own 205± acres in Dale, Texas, located just minutes from the explosive growth corridor between Austin, Bastrop, and San Marcos. This large, contiguous tract represents one of the last remaining “big acreage” holdings in the immediate area, surrounded by properties that have already been subdivided into smaller ranchettes. Whether you're seeking a development investment, private ranch, or recreational retreat, this property offers exceptional long-term potential.

Ideally positioned approximately 30 minutes from Bastrop, 40 minutes from San Marcos, and 45 minutes from Austin and Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, the location combines rural privacy with outstanding access to Central Texas growth and opportunity.

The land itself is a classic Central Texas wooded tract, featuring dense native vegetation, mature oak trees, and a rugged, natural landscape. With rolling terrain and subtle elevation changes, the property offers both scenic views and functional drainage, with runoff flowing into three existing tanks (pond sites) that could be further enhanced.

Wildlife is abundant throughout the property, making it an excellent option for hunting, recreation, and conservation-minded ownership. Whitetail deer, dove, and other native species are frequently seen across the tract, supported by thick brush and natural cover.

Approximately 35 acres on the southern portion contain older oilfield activity, while the remainder of the property remains heavily wooded and largely untouched—providing a strong mix of usable land and raw natural habitat.
