Conveniently located approximately 17± miles north of Fredericksburg in Gillespie County. The property fronts paved Schneider-Moellering Road for approximately 2,550 feet. The ranch is approximately 12± miles from Enchanted Rock State Natural Area and 29± miles from Llano. San Antonio is approximately 85± miles away, while Austin is approximately 100± miles from the ranch. This location allows an owner to enjoy the restaurants, shopping, wineries, and amenities of Fredericksburg while returning to the peace and seclusion of a private ranch setting.

Vegetation is equally diverse, with walnut, Spanish oak, live oak, cedar elm, native pecan, and other native species found throughout the ranch. A thick stand of native grasses covers much of the landscape. Extensive cedar removal and mulching performed by the Sellers has opened numerous hillsides and draws, showcasing mature hardwoods and improving access while preserving areas with thicker cover for wildlife.

Elevations range from approximately 1,880± to 2,020± feet above sea level, creating approximately 140± feet of elevation change across the ranch. Rolling hills, elevated ridges, deep draws, seasonal creek bottoms combine to create tremendous visual and recreational diversity.

Several elevated areas offer impressive long-range views and potential locations for a future residence or weekend retreat.

A 1,300± square foot Mueller metal barn was constructed in 2023.  Situated on a concrete slab, the barn includes a 10-foot overhang that provides additional covered space, ideal for storing tractors, UTVs, trailers, and other ranch equipment out of the elements.Electricity is already in place at the barn, and plumbing has been stubbed for future water service. This provides flexibility for a future owner who may wish to add a bathroom or potentially finish all or a portion of the structure out for living accommodations.

Wildlife is abundant, with sightings of whitetail deer, turkey, dove, feral hogs, and numerous native songbirds and other species indigenous to the Texas Hill Country.

Several seasonal draws winds through the ranch, creating an attractive wildlife corridor, surrounded by mature vegetation and interesting terrain. Located along one of the draws is a unique intermittent spring that has been protected with a spring box and a concrete holding area. The spring is a focal point to the ranch and is a neat area to explore. Per the sellers, the spring has consistently flowed during their ownership of the property.

There is one water well that has been tested at approximately 40± gallons per minute, providing an excellent water resource for future improvements and ranch use.
