LOCATION: This fine offering is situated in the prized Lindendale area, with long frontage on Maenius Road, about 10 miles west of Blanco (restaurants, shops, services, supplies), or 20 miles to Fredericksburg (world class restaurants/shops, jet airport, hospital, box stores). This is about one hour from both Austin (tech center, State Capitol) and San Antonio (medical center, international airport, nations 7th largest city), in the epicenter of the famed Texas Hill Country.
The area is known for its scenery and seclusion, while being in the shadow of one of the most dynamic growth areas in the country. Once known as Angora Goat country, this zone is now dominated by improved recreational ranches and stock farms of several hundred acres and up. Adjoiners range from 100 acres and up in size, and the feel of the area is decidedly rural. For more information on either Blanco or Kendal...

WATER: The site features several canyons that flow water seasonally, along with several sterling lake sites awaiting development. A gorgeous pond is found in the NE corner of the ranch. A focused surface water development program elevates this ranch to the next level!
Groundwater is rated excellent in this area, with abundant, sweet water available at 400-500 depth. There is one functioning water well on the ranch, and additional data on area groundwater is available at the Blanco-Pedernales GCD and Cow Creek GCD websites.
LAND: A good variety of hills, canyons and gently sloping pastures comprises the bulk of WBR-SHT, which falls from N to S with about 200 of elevation change overall. The dramatic hills offer stunning homesites and viewpoints overlooking the picturesque Blanco River valley below. The look is refined (think Napa Valley), yet rugged, with various species of oak dominating the landscape, with little to no cedar to be found.
Deep canyons have creeks lined with heritage oaks, cedar elm, walnut and some sycamores. Shrubs include persimmon and agarita, with native and introduced grasses such as Indiangrass, bluestem, switchgrass and kleingrass, and native turfs. The abundant wildlife includes whitetail deer, a few exotics, turkey, dove and varmints. Feral hogs are found in this area as well, but not in epidemic numbers.
Soils are primarily stony clays in higher elevations, and silty clays in the more level areas. There are small sections of the property suitable for light cultivation or food plots.
IMPROVEMENTS: Ranch fencing and cross fencing is mostly fair to good, and there is some high fencing along part of the N boundary. Ranch roads are unimproved but passable, and some old pens might hold aging stock. You are definitely not paying for someone elses impractical improvements here!
SUMMARY: If you seek quality, unimproved land in bulk at high value, with impeccable location, WBR-HLT should be on your short list of prospects. This blank canvas has that clean Lindendale look, due to grazing by Angoras decades ago which virtually eliminated the cedar but preserved the oaks. The combo of scenery, water development potential, location, dramatic homesites with a tad of fertile land is second to none. We appreciate your consideration, and welcome your inquiries, and hope to see you soon.

An electric transmission line crosses the ranch in one small section to the north. Electricity is provided by Pedernales Electric Coop. The ranch is located in the Blanco ISD, and estimated ag-exempt taxes are $800 per year.
