In addition, the home features a rock pavilion with a built-in steel barbeque pit. What a great place for barbequing and enjoying a cold refreshing beverage in the evening.

Water. This ranch is so blessed with water ! It has both sides of 2 different creeks that flow through the ranch, including over 2 miles of Walnut Creek. Both creeks are spring-fed. There are a number of springs on the place that feed the creeks.
History. It is extremely rare to find a ranch such as this, that has been owned by the same family since 1863 ! The current owner's family settled on the ranch when it was still wild and uncivilized country. There are still burn middens or mounds on the place and artifacts have been found here.
This ranch has never been flipped, and it is ready for the new owner to create your own fabulous water features and build a custom home in complete seclusion and natural beauty, with easy access to the charm of Fredericksburg.
Wildlife. Wildlife are abundant, including whitetail deer, feral hogs, and many other native species.
Minerals. A portion of the mineral estate will be available with an acceptable contract.
