Description

This exceptional 260-acre Hill Country ranch, nestled between Johnson City and Fredericksburg, presents a unique blend of recreational opportunities and luxurious living. Situated approximately one hour from both Austin and San Antonio, the property boasts stunning views, mature oak trees, rolling terrain, and expansive pastures. Approximately half the land is cleared, while the remaining acreage provides prime habitat for abundant wildlife, including whitetail deer, axis deer, turkey, and hogs. The property features a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom main house with a large covered patio and outdoor kitchen, complemented by a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom barndominium with a spacious bunk room, saloon, full kitchen, and bath, both with covered porches. A large fire pit area with games sits between the main house and barndominium. Recreational amenities include full-size NBA, tennis, and two pickleball courts. An equipment barn with a small apartment adds to the compound's functionality. The ranch is equipped with underground electricity and a deep water well, but is also entirely off-grid capable, featuring a complete solar system, 100,000 gallons of rainwater collection, two backup generators, and 4,000 gallons of backup propane. A high-fenced garden and a one-acre pond, supplemented by a well, provide additional features. Overlooking the pond is a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom fishing cabin with a 50-foot pier, fountain, and anchored floating deck, ideal for fishing and swimming. A smaller pond above feeds a man-made creek. A seasonal creek runs through the valley, offering scenic trails and mature trees. The ranch presents an ideal family retreat, with significant income potential through Airbnb rentals, corporate retreats, or event hosting. Owner financing is available.
