Offered for the first time since 1859, this remarkable 156-acre ranch presents a truly rare opportunity to steward a piece of Texas history. Held by the same family for more than 165 years, the land has been thoughtfully cared for and preserved through generations, making its availability a once-in-a-lifetime offering.
Ideally located between Luling, San Marcos, and Lockhart, and just minutes from the San Marcos River, the ranch offers an exceptional balance of privacy and convenience. While nearby towns provide easy access to dining, shopping, and everyday necessities, the property itself feels worlds away. Upon arrival, the noise and pace of daily life quickly fade, replaced by open skies, quiet pastures, and the natural rhythm of the land.

The ranch showcases classic Central Texas terrain, featuring a beautiful mix of open pasture and wooded areas. Mature oak and hackberry trees are scattered throughout, providing shade, character, and natural cover for wildlife. Several ponds enhance both the scenery and functionality of the property, serving as water sources for livestock and wildlife while creating peaceful focal points across the landscape. Deer, turkey, and native game are frequently seen, making the ranch feel alive year-round.
The mostly flat topography, combined with natural tree cover and thoughtful spacing, creates multiple potential homesites throughout the property. Each site offers its own sense of privacy and unique views of the surrounding countryside, allowing future owners to design a residence, retreat, or ranch headquarters that fits seamlessly into the land.
This property is well suited for a variety of uses, including a family retreat, working ranch, recreational property, or long-term investment. Whether envisioned as a place to gather generations, operate agricultural pursuits, or simply enjoy wide-open space and natural beauty, the ranch offers flexibility while maintaining its historic integrity.
More than acreage, this is a legacy ranch — a rare chance to continue a story that began over a century and a half ago. Properties with this level of history, location, and natural beauty are seldom offered and even more rarely repeated.
