Equestrian Homes For Sale

Equestrian communities are master-planned neighborhoods designed for the equestrian lifestyle. They provide amenities like barns and trails, and community with other horse lovers.

“Horse-friendly” homes and neighborhoods allow horses. Depending on the number of horses they can house, Austin equestrian properties may have a barn or more with stalls, an indoor or open arena, paddocks, hay-feed and general storage, and numerous other horse-related amenities.

Austin equestrian homes are found on the outskirts of town, primarily in surrounding communities west of downtown Austin.

Private Homes

Within the western Hill Country and also east, north, and south of Austin, there are many opportunities to purchase homes on acreage that are suitable for development for horses. Pre-developed equestrian properties also are available and can accommodate numerous home style and lifestyle preferences. Whether developed or undeveloped for an equestrian lifestyle, homes that allow horses outside of equestrian neighborhoods have the benefit of a wider range of price points.

Ranches

The Central Texas region also offers opportunities to purchase ranches, large spreads of land that have been used to raise various types of livestock for profit. These will include miscellaneous structures and usually will include a home. There are also gentlemen’s ranches, which are ranches where livestock are raised for pleasure rather than for a sustaining income. Raising and breeding horses can be a qualifying land use for an agricultural tax exemption in Texas so be sure to talk to your Austin Realtor® about the possibilities and to find properties that best fit your needs.
