The ranch is an ideal opportunity to buy a piece of the Texas Hill Country centrally located in of one of the fastest growing Regions in the State of Texas, just minutes from wineries, restaurants, state parks, lakes, boating, and more.

All configurations include a transmission main spanning 9,500 linear feet, a treatment plant, storage tanks, and a booster station. Water service would be provided by Texas Water Utilities, drawing from an LCRA surface water source. The ranch boasts stunning natural features from hill tops, valleys, bottom land with seasonal creeks lined with pecan trees, hills glazed with endless amounts of wildflowers through spring and summer. There are several hill tops on the ranch that would all make great build sites, offering a Buyer many options that capture the views and perfect orientation of the sunset. WATER: Seasonal creek, 2 small ponds, 4 water wells (10 gpm, 2 gpm, 1.5 gpm, and 1 gpm). IMPROVEMENTS: Old 3 bedroom 2 bath ranch house on the hill top, with a separate 2 car garage that could be converted into another living space.
