Property Details

OVERVIEW

Located just 3 miles from Fredericksburg with dual frontage on RR 965 and Wallendorf-Bohnert Road, the Ellebracht–Moritz Homestead offers 100.59+/- acres of gently rolling Hill Country terrain in a prime location. Designated as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark (c.1850s), the property blends preserved heritage with modern ranch amenities, including improved pastures, mature oaks, long-range views, and investment versatility. The ranch includes four residences: a beautifully restored 1BR/1BA historic stone home with loft dating back to the 1850s, a 2BR/2BA main residence, and two 1BR/1BA guest cottages that offer flexible use for extended family, guests, or rental income. A 19th-century root cellar has been converted into a climate-controlled wine room, and the outdoor living spaces center around a resort-style pool with landscaped courtyards. The pool area features an antique-timber cabana with a stone fireplace and a full outdoor kitchen equipped with stainless appliances, ice maker, warming drawer, wine fridge, dishwasher, cooking pits, and abundant storage—ideal for entertaining. Additional improvements include a three-car garage with equipment bays, a two-stall horse barn, and a chicken coop. A nearly one-acre concrete-lined lake enhances the landscape, while three wells service the ranch: one dedicated to yard irrigation, one servicing improvements, and one reserved for future expansion. The land's gentle topography and road access make it suitable for a private retreat, working ranch, multi-family compound, or income-producing property. The ranch may be purchased in its entirety or divided into five individual tracts, each with road access and its own character. Opportunities of this scale, condition, and location are increasingly rare in Gillespie County—making the Ellebracht–Moritz Homestead an exceptional offering minutes from Main St Fredericksburg and the Texas Wine Trail.
