The Historic Austin House! ~ Steeped in history and thoughtfully updated for modern living, The Historic Austin House is a rare Bastrop gem. Believed to have been built prior to 1887, as shown on Bastrops Birds Eye View dated 1887 and Sanborn Insurance maps, this home originally served as an annex to the Hoppe/Exchange/Turner Hotels before being relocated in approximately 1912 to its current corner lot on Austin and Water Streets, where it operated as a boarding house. Set on 0.213 acres beneath towering pecan trees, the property blends historic charm with extensive updates. Renovated in 2007 and extensively improved by current owners starting in 2021, upgrades include energy-efficient windows and a beautifully expanded kitchen, bringing the home to approximately 2387 square feet.
