About This Lot

Welcome to your Hill Country escape where the chickens can roam, the goats can have opinions, and you finally have room to breathe. This versatile 23.09-acre recreation ranch and hobby farm in Spring Branch, Texas blends rustic charm with modern comfort—and yes, it’s as dreamy as it sounds.
The 2,447-square-foot home features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, including a primary suite with a two-way fireplace and east-facing sunrise views (perfect for morning coffee and main-character moments). The open-concept living space delivers cozy Hill Country vibes, while the kitchen brings the goods: large island with bar sink, stainless fridge (2021), propane oven/range, and a breakfast nook overlooking your very own slice of Texas.
Smart upgrades include an on-demand water heater (2022), new water pump (2022), water filtration system (2022), and Starlink rooftop internet—because rural doesn’t have to mean “buffering.” Outside, you’ll find stone and corrugated metal siding, a metal roof (2020), a covered front patio, and a balcony with epic views for miles, mature oaks for shade, and wide-open acreage ready for gardens, livestock pens, trails, workshops, or your future chicken empire.
Existing improvements include horse stalls, a game pen, and multiple outdoor areas ready to be customized for animals, storage, or hobby-farm dreams. Select equipment may be negotiable—because who doesn’t love bonus toys?
Located in a private neighborhood with shared easement access, plus direct access to the Guadalupe River for fishing, tubing, and kayaking when farm life needs a float break. Furnishings and select equipment are negotiable, making this a flexible, partially turnkey opportunity. This is Hill Country living with personality—space to play, grow, relax, and maybe finally get those mini horses you’ve been low-key wanting.
