Smithville is a town where people still wave, neighbors still know one another, and dinner plans can involve a golf cart instead of a set of car keys. Right in the middle of it is this newly constructed 3-bedroom, 2-bath home in Woodrose Place, a small pocket of just 13 homes along a cul-de-sac street. Inside, the finishes are clean without feeling cold. Wide-plank, wood-look tile runs throughout the entire home, no carpet and no mixture of flooring from room to room. High ceilings and plenty of windows open up the shared kitchen, living, and dining area, while a dedicated office gives work its own address within the house. That means all three bedrooms can remain bedrooms, with no debate over whether guests or Zoom calls win. A breakfast bar keeps the kitchen connected to the rest of the room, while quartz countertops, SS appliances, and generous cabinetry handle the practical side. The primary suite has its own dual-sink bath, a fully tiled walk-in shower, and a walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms share another full bath. A covered patio gives the backyard a proper starting point for outdoor dinners and slow weekends. Beyond it is a wide, fully fenced yard with new sod and automatic sprinklers, so the outside isn’t another project waiting for you. When it’s time to leave home, Historic Main Street is just minutes away with locally owned restaurants, coffee spots, shops, and plenty of reasons to linger. Smithville sits along the Highway 71 corridor between Bastrop and La Grange, making it well positioned for what’s ahead while keeping its laid-back, community-first personality firmly intact. And yes, it’s a certified golf-cart community. Park the car, grab the cart, and roll to dinner. The home is brand-new; the Smithville way of life is already established. All that’s missing is you. Buyer to verify all info.

A hidden room and upstairs suite with its own entrance. The listing photos don't do it justice. At 2,118 square feet, this 3 bedroom, 3 full bath home has considerably more space than the exterior lets on. Bamboo floors run throughout, and the kitchen was updated for someone who actually cooks: granite counters, a deep farmhouse sink, a five burner ceramic cooktop, and a built in wall oven. Comfort here is designed in, not added on. Electric fireplaces anchor both levels, and several ceiling fans include ceramic heaters — the kind of detail you appreciate in January. Then there's the part that steals every showing. A bookcase that swings open to a hidden room with a safe inside. Yes, really. Upstairs is a private retreat with its own separate entrance off the back of the home: a bedroom, a living area with kitchenette, and a full bath with a walk in shower. Come and go without ever crossing the main level — well suited for guests or a home office suite. Out back, the original garage offers alley access plus a small workshop for projects and storage. With a dependable rental history behind it, the home is now vacant, move-in ready, and easy to show. No tenant to work around, no punch list waiting on the new owner. Schedule a showing and find the hidden room for yourself.
