Living in Bartlett.
A historic small town on the Blackland Prairie, with a classic downtown and room to spread out.
Get to know Bartlett.
Bartlett sits on the line between Williamson and Bell counties, about 50 miles northeast of downtown Austin and 24 miles south of Temple. The town was built by German and Czech settlers on cotton and corn farming, and its early-1900s brick downtown is still largely intact.
Today, Bartlett appeals to buyers who want small-town living, more land for their money, and a quieter pace while staying within reach of Taylor, Temple, and the Austin area.
