Mid-April 2026 TRFS Update

MID-APRIL PROPERTY UPDATE—NEW LISTINGS AND MORE!

NEW! Norco Ranch NW is the northern, 90-acre portion of the 200-acre Norco Ranch West, also listed and shown on this website, near the headwaters of the Blanco River. The site fronts on paved RM 1888 midway between Luckenbach and Blanco and is just 20+ miles from sizzling Fredericksburg. The land rolls gently from the highway down to the river, with nearby views of rugged, protected hills that cannot be built upon due to the Conservation Easement in place on this and adjoining lands. The river ownership includes almost a quarter-mile of both sides of the clear, flowing stream, which is lined with monster oaks, cypress, and sycamores. Small holes, riffles, falls, and even dinosaur tracks are features of this charming body of water.

FEATURED! 522 Ranch is a versatile and rugged property that captures the essence of the Hill Country, featuring rolling hills, wooded canyons, scenic ridgelines, and natural features. The land has been thoughtfully developed with a network of roads and trails that provide easy access across the entire acreage, making it ideal for recreational use, game management, or future development. The property’s established infrastructure, combined with its natural beauty and seclusion, creates an outstanding canvas for a weekend retreat, private hunting property, or future cabin site.

REDUCED! Creek View Ranch boasts a lovely Hill Country–style main home spanning 3,000± sf, featuring three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms. Beautiful landscaping, gardens, and fruit trees surround the home. Three charming one-bedroom, one-bathroom guest homes are spread across the property, each tucked away in its own private Hill Country setting.

This impressive 433-acre Texas Hill Country property sits just across the Gillespie County line, perfectly positioned between Fredericksburg and Mason—only 20 minutes in either direction. With extensive Highway 87 N and County Road frontage, it offers easy accessibility while maintaining a private, hidden feel. From nearly every vantage point, you'll take in sweeping views of House Mountain, Cedar Mountain, and other notable peaks that define this ruggedly beautiful region. The land itself is a showcase of nature's finest work, with numerous mature live oaks dotting the landscape, complemented by pockets of mesquite and bee brush. Not only do these native plants provide excellent forage for wildlife, but they also thrive in the prime soils that support a strong carrying capacity for cattle. Several build sites with panoramic views have already been cleared, with brush removal strategically planned to create natural corridors and bedding areas for game with privacy from the other 2 large ranches it borders. For those seeking a property rich in water resources, you'll find two springs, a 1.75-acre pond, and a reliable water well already in place. A functional set of working pens further enhances the property's ranching potential. The land offers a dramatic 100-foot elevation change, ranging from 1,780 feet at the high points to 1,680 feet in the lower valleys. These lower elevations also feature exceptional soils, ideal for establishing food plots in key locations to attract and hold wildlife. Whether your vision is a private homestead, weekend hunting retreat, or a working cattle operation, this property is truly a blank canvas ready for your plans. With its combination of location, water, topography, wildlife habitat, and breathtaking scenery, this property offers the rare chance to own a beautiful piece of the Hill Country—without Fredericksburg's premium land prices.
