About This Home
In the heart of Texas Wine Country near Fredericksburg, 260 Acres, Parked Out, Pond, Multiple Improvements & Off-Grid Capable.
Welcome to Lonesome Valley, a spectacular 260-acre Hill Country ranch in vineyard country. Conveniently located only 9 miles from the Square in Johnson City heading west on Highway 290 towards Fredericksburg (20 minutes) and only 1.5 miles to the gate via Rocky Creek Road. Once entering the gate, you'll have total privacy and a 1 mile paved road to the improvements.
The ranch offers phenomenal views, mature oak trees, rolling topography, and large pasture. Lonesome Valley Ranch is off-grid capable; more information is below.
Approximately half of the ranch is parked out, and the rest has been left wooded providing excellent wildlife habitat, which include whitetail deer, axis ,turkey, dove, and hogs, making this an excellent hunting ranch.
Improvements include a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home with a large covered outdoor living area and kitchen. The home offers spectacular views from inside and out.
There is also a barndominium with a 3 bedroom, 3-bathroom upstairs which includes a ten bed bunk room. Downstairs youll find a saloon, full kitchen ,full bath, and living area as well as outdoor living/kitchen. Both the upstairs and downstairs have covered wraparound porches and offer spectacular views.
Between the barndominium and the home is a large fire pit, nearby is basketball, tennis and two pickleball courts. An equipment barn with a small apartment completes the compound.
While the ranch has underground electricity and a deepwater well, it is also entirely off-grid capable, with full solar, 100,000 gallons of rainwater collection, two backup generators, wood burning stoves, and 4,000 gallons of backup propane. Additionally, the property has a high-fenced garden and a one-acre pond supplemented by a well.
Overlooking the pond is a 2/1 fishing cabin with a 40 foot pier, fountain, and anchored floating deck. A smaller pond above circulates water through a man-made creek. The property also features a seasonal creek through the valley in the center of the ranch, featuring trails and incredible trees at the creek bottom.
The ranch is an excellent family retreat with income potential through Airbnb rentals, corporate events, weddings, and other events. The owner began renting it as an Airbnb late last year and grossed over $30,000 in the fourth quarter of 2024.
The ranch is offered turnkey with all furnishings.
This is an excellent opportunity for a turnkey, ready to go Ranch with a replacement value of over $10 million.
