Located between Utopia and Vanderpool and situated along the western slope of the Sabinal Valley, this new listing is the perfect hill country getaway or retirement property. The ranch is accessed by paved road and offers end of the road privacy, large neighbors, a beautiful 2BR home, enclosed workshop with equipment shed, a unique rock smokehouse/processing room, rock fire pit, extensive rock landscaping, patios and walkways. The ranch features approximately 700 feet of both sides of the Sabinal River with grandfathered limestone dam and the owner's have created a manicured park like area along river banks for entertaining, camping and accessing the water. The dam backs up water for several hundred feet offering unlimited recreation including swimming, fishing, kayaking and tubing. A beautiful rock entrance and limestone road leads to the headquarters which are located safely above but in view of the River. The home is situated just above the river and is undoubtedly one of the most incredible settings anywhere in the Hill Country.

The ranch offers a nice varying terrain and an excellent road system throughout the ranch provides easy access to all areas of the property. The Ranch offers gently sloping terrain with multiple wet weather draws, multiple wet weather ponds and unique rock overhangs which create waterfalls during rainy periods. The ranch has been cleared of much of the cedar but the owners have carefully managed the ranch to provide adequate amounts of heavy to medium cover for the large numbers of Whitetail, Turkey, Hogs and occasional free ranging exotics. The ranch is covered with huge healthy trees including Live Oak, Blue Oak, Post Oak and Spanish Oak. Areas of the ranch offer deep fertile soils that could be used for cultivated fields or food plots for the wild game. Touring the ranch is extremely enjoyable offering amazing views of the Sabinal Canyon, there is no way to accurately describe the sheer beauty of the surrounding valley, words and pictures cannot tell the story. There are literally dozens of possible home sites on the ranch; or the perfect place to build a gazebo for watching sunsets and star gazing.

The improvements feature a 2 bedroom/2 bath ranch style home that has recently been totally rebuilt and expanded throughout the interior. Recent upgrades include expanded kitchen area and dining area with full length windows overlooking the river, new commercial appliances, large island, new counters, new cabinets throughout, new flooring throughout home, new paint throughout home, new staircase to loft, safe room under stairs, new lighting, new ceiling fans, enlarged baths and showers, on demand hot water heater, water softener system, expanded closets and full length concrete patio for entertaining.

From the back patio of the home a native stone walkway leads you down to the beautiful Sabinal River, huge Cypress Trees, old rock dam, manicured grounds and hundreds of feet of native stone walls. The craftsmanship in the vast amount of landscaping, limestone walkways, patios and rock retainer walls has almost become a lost art and it shows the incredible amount of work and heart that the owners have put into the ranch through the years.
