Dove Season is in full swing, and we couldn't be more excited!

We've got some thrilling updates and new listings that you don't want to miss... Twin Oaks Ranch in Menard County is now on the market! This long-time family-owned ranch's landscape boasts gentle, undulating terrain that unveils breathtaking vistas of the Texas Hill Country.

The renowned Highveld Ranch, a signature Tecomate property, now comes with a reduced price! This is your chance to own a piece of Texas paradise at an even more enticing value!

We're keeping a close eye on the weather, and unfortunately, Texas is still grappling with exceptional drought conditions.

Property Details

OVERVIEW

Nestled just outside the quaint town of Utopia, Texas, 27977 FM 470 is truly an impressive Hill Country estate situated on 600 pristine acres fully cleared of all cedar trees. The property itself is completely low-fenced while the family compound is separately high-fenced with an automatic, gated entry. A 1.25 mile chip and seal driveway leads you through the ranch and to the main residence. The 4541 SQFT main residence welcomes you into the family compound with its circular driveway and expansive views of the surrounding hills. Once inside, you will find a beautiful chef's kitchen that is ideal for family gathering or entertaining. Wood countertops, stainless steel appliances, double ovens, and a Kinetico Reverse Osmosis plus filtration system in place. 12 foot ceilings throughout the kitchen and living room provide a spacious feel. A roaring fire in the rock fireplace is sure to keep you warm on those cold winter days. The separate dining room invites you in for all holiday or special occasions while the pantry is a cook's dream. Feel like you are living within our own private oasis with a remarkable primary suite that boasts its own attached patio. Additionally, the primary bathroom also boasts its own patio complete with an outdoor shower and clawfoot tub that overlooks the riding arena. Individual "his and hers" closets. Adjacent to the closets, you will find a two-person sauna installed inside the primary bedroom's spacious laundry area. Large guest-suite with full, ensuite bathroom. The media room is your ideal "hang-out" spot with thoughtful details such as Alder-wood cabinetry across one entire wall of the space. Office is positioned across from the living area and brings a fantastic work-from-home opportunity. Spend your summertime evenings on the patio with views of the backyard. As you exit the residence from the sizable mud room, you will walk through a two-car, covered car-port with space for your ATV and into a converted storage area complete with a heavy duty washer and dryer, hot water heater, and dog wash/grooming equipment. Additionally, the entire main residence is wired for a sound system both indoors and outdoors. There are approximately 15 Solar Panels installed on the main residence.

The attached 39ft x 24ft garage offers (4) automatic garage doors, oil-change pit, and enough spots for multiple vehicles.

Additional improvements include a (4) stall horse barn, large car barn, equipment storage building, and a 72ft x 117ft riding arena. Impressive rain water catchment system with (3) individual holding tanks.
