James Van Der Beek currently lives on a 36-acre ranch property near Austin, Texas, in a town about 35-45 minutes outside the city. The property, which he and his family started living in around 2020, includes a main house with five bedrooms and three bathrooms, several cabins, a pool, and a backyard with views of the Pedernales River. The Van Der Beek family moved to Texas from Los Angeles to have more space and a closer connection to nature, which they value highly for their six children. The home and surrounding grounds offer ample space and privacy, fitting their lifestyle needs away from the bright lights of Hollywood.
