Recreational Land for Sale in Fredericksburg, Texas

Coal Creek Ranch is a +/- 565-acre live water property located in northern Gillespie County, one of the most coveted areas in Texas. The ranch presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a property with some of the best views in the Hill Country, live water, a diverse landscape, and a phenomenal location. The ranch offers a complete sense of privacy and an abundance of recreational activities while maintaining close proximity to the best the Texas Hill Country has to offer.

Landscape

Located in the southern portion of the Llano Uplift, Coal Creek Ranch has an extremely unique and diverse land composition. Portions of the property feature rolling bottomland where mature live oaks and post oaks scatter the landscape. These areas of the ranch are supported by the rich soil and abundant watershed in the area. The ranch's post oak savannahs give way to numerous granite vistas that exceed 1,820', in elevation. 50-mile views in multiple directions are not uncommon on the property and cannot be found anywhere else in the Texas Hill Country. There are multiple mountain tops with homesite potential and 360-degree panoramic views of famous Texas peaks like the Twin Knobs and Dungeon Mountain. Marble Falls and Horseshoe Bay can even be seen in the distance. Other features such as towering granite buffs, deep canyons, and secluded caves make Coal Creek Ranch a private natural wonder. A rival to even Enchanted Rock which is located just up the road and can be spotted from the ranch's hilltops.

Water

For almost 1 mile, live water Coal Creek winds through the southern portion of the ranch. The creek is a diverse ecosystem in itself holding water year-round and is home to many unique features such as cascading waterfalls, natural springs, and swimming holes. The ranch also features portions of Cutoff Creek and Garrett Branch, numerous perennial creeks, and a year-round pond. There is tremendous potential for possible lake & pond sites or other water feature developments. Two wells are located on the property, one of which is currently operational.

Improvements

There is a foundation of an old homestead located at the front of the property, where water and electricity are also available. The ranch is fenced with five-strand barbed wire. There is an internal road system in place that allows for access to the ranch's best features. There are also a few old blinds and feeders that will remain on the property.

Wildlife

Native game including whitetail deer, turkey, dove, and wild hogs are found throughout the ranch. Free-ranging exotic game such as Aoudad have also been seen consistently on the property. The ranch is currently under a wildlife tax exemption.

Location
