Onion Creek Ranch - Hays County - Near Buda

Description:

This is a beautifully treed corner lot providing access off Water Park Rd or Windmill Run, or perhaps a circular drive from one to the next.  It is under agricultural evaluation for low taxes and there is an awesome, private park on the Blanco River for property owners and their guests only.  This lot already offers a good mix of open meadows and heavily treed areas and is just needing someone to bring their hill country dream to life with a new custom home.  The property is located in the Hays Consolidated ISD and also offers the possibility of student transfer to Wimberley ISD if desired.

The land has been left natural with only minor clearing.  There are numerous home sites offering a variety of settings within which to build your home.  With a good mix of Live Oak, Spanish Oak, Post Oak, Elm, Persimmon, etc, there are plenty of spring and fall colors to suit most anyone.  The lot is generally level overall with some nice grassy meadows in the heart of the lot.  The trees would provide a perfect buffer around much of the perimeter as well as a shady setting to surround a future home.

Description:

NEW LISTING! Very nice ranch with a ton of potential for an end user as a recreational ranch for hunting, fishing or just general enjoyment with the future possibility of a tremendous return on the investment.  With so much county road frontage, this ranch would lend itself very well to being subdivided with very little infrastructure costs to bring an exponential gain on the initial investment.  The overall irregular shape of this property is what makes the developmental potential so great on this sporting and recreational gem.

With nearly 2 miles of paved, county maintained frontage on Fulton Ranch Road, there is ample opportunity to build multiple access points to the ranch.  The topography of the ranch varies from the low points in the tree-covered creek bottom to hilltop elevations that offer panoramic distant views to the south.  There are several areas along the creek that hold water most of the time, during years of typical rainfall.  Additionally, there are grotto areas with ferns, and other water reliant foliage along bottom of high bluffs that are as picturesque as it gets.  Recently, the current owner has constructed two man-made lakes along the creek.  Due to the drought, neither has seen water but, when the rains come, they will be a wonderful asset to the ranch. 

There are currently no restrictions placed on the ranch, only county developmental guidelines would apply.

Location:

This recreational ranch is located just about midway between Wimberley and San Marcos, TX fronting paved, county maintained, Fulton Ranch Road in Hays county. This location makes for easy access to San Marcos (10 minutes) where you can find all necessary amenities such as a hospital, airport, shopping, restaurants, entertainment, and the 6th largest university in the state, Texas State University, with over 32,000 students. About 10 minutes west of the property is Wimberley, TX. Known for its beautiful Hill Country landscapes, artistic flair and small-town charm, Wimberley has long been known as a popular destination among Texas travelers. Maybe it’s the ever-abundant wildlife, the giant Live Oak trees, the breath-taking hilltop views or the centuries old Cypress lining the crystal clear Blanco River. No matter the reason, the Wimberley mystique continues to call folks back time and time again.

Wildlife:

Native Texas Hill Country Wildlife including Deer, Turkey, Hogs, Fox, Dove and more!

Water:

One of the best features of the ranch are the two newly created lakes built along the creek. One is said to be 3-5 acres in size while the other is 2-3 acres in size. Both are in need of a good rain to fill them up as they have been dry since they were built. Most of the length of the ranch follows a picturesque wet-weather creek.

The staircase itself is truly a work of art with two 20'+ beams acting as the supports and solid cedar slabs for each step. The upstairs common area is open to the great room below separated only by custom-made wrought iron railings. Upstairs there are also 2 bedrooms and a full bath. Downstairs, the centerpiece of the great room is a custom, hand-made fireplace, using rocks collected from the property. Open to the great room, the kitchen is fully customized with hickory cabinets and stainless steel countertops and appliances. The master bath countertops are solid, single slab Cypress, and are absolutely beautiful.
