Property Details

OVERVIEW

At the heart of the ranch lies a custom two-story home, built in 2008 designed by Tony Martin. The thoughtfully designed residence offers a seamless blend of rustic elegance and modern comfort, featuring a primary suite and guest quarters on the main level, along with a wine cellar, media room, and a sunroom that captures sweeping views. The upper level welcomes you with a grand dog trot entrance leading into an open-concept kitchen and living area, as well as a well-appointed den/study. Warmth and craftsmanship are evident throughout, with four interior fireplaces, Tennessee hewn timbers, reclaimed pine and oak finishes, and extensive custom rock masonry both inside and out. Multiple covered porches overlook the breathtaking Hill Country landscape, perfect for entertaining or quiet relaxation. For guests, a separate two-unit bunkhouse compound offers accommodations for 10+ people, complete with an in-ground swimming pool, outdoor living area, central HVAC, rustic fireplace, Franklin stove, and a full kitchen. A six-bay barn on a concrete slab provides ample storage, a workshop, and space for ranch equipment and vehicles. Also, located between the main house & guest houses is a rustic stone pergola taking in the impressive views & wildlife. Land & Water: The land is a beautiful mix of open pastures and wooded areas, thoughtfully managed with selective cedar clearing to promote native grasses and mature hardwoods including oak varieties, post oak, cedar elm and many other native species. The topography features gently rolling terrain, dramatic rock outcroppings, and panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Water resources are a standout feature: two ponds, a concrete-dammed, spring-fed creek (Big Branch), and the presence of a rare dry-stacked stone wall along much of the western boundary add both function and character. The property is perimeter fenced and capable of supporting livestock. Rainfall on the main house is collected and piped down to the pond off the back side of the house. Conservation: This property is protected by a conservation easement, ensuring that its natural habitats, scenic vistas, and ecological value are preserved in perpetuity, while still allowing for private use and enjoyment.
