Property Description

Buena Vista Ranch is a 1,029 acre high-fenced ranch in the Texas Hill Country, offering a 7,223 sq. ft. custom home, guest accommodations, exceptional hunting, and extensive ranch improvements. Located near Mountain Home in Real County with paved access off Highway 41, this property offers the privacy of a large ranch while remaining a convenient drive from Kerrville. The custom main residence features five bedrooms, six bathrooms, an elevator, and spacious indoor and outdoor living areas overlooking the surrounding Hill Country. Dual HVAC systems serve both levels, while a 100kW Generac generator and 1,000-gallon propane system provide reliable backup power. A separate two-bedroom, two-bathroom guest cabin with a detached garage offers comfortable accommodations for family, friends, or ranch personnel. The land features rolling terrain, mature hardwoods, open pastures, scenic ridgelines, and expansive views across the surrounding valleys. Years of selective cedar clearing have created an attractive balance of open country and native wildlife habitat. An extensive internal road system provides access throughout the property, with additional opportunities to develop hunting areas, trails, and recreational spaces. Water is a major asset of Buena Vista Ranch, with six water wells and four fully lined, well-fed ponds distributed throughout the property. These improvements support the residences, wildlife, and day-to-day ranch operations. A dedicated solar-powered well also supplies the ranch's wildlife holding and release enclosures. For hunting enthusiasts, Buena Vista Ranch offers an established population of trophy Whitetail deer and an impressive variety of exotic wildlife, including Axis, Blackbuck, Nilgai, Red Stag, Gemsbok, Scimitar and Arabian Oryx, Eland, Ibex, Sable, and Kudu. The ranch participates in the Texas Parks and Wildlife MLD Program and has benefited from years of wildlife management, supplemental feeding, and habitat improvements. All existing wildlife will convey with the sale. Hunting improvements include four blinds, eight corn and protein feeders, a 15-ton protein silo, and approximately 15-acre and 25-acre soft-release enclosures. A separate 10 acre holding pen near the main residence and barns provides additional flexibility for wildlife management and breeding. The ranch is well equipped for continued operations, featuring a 5,000 sq. ft. hay and cottonseed barn, 6,000 sq. ft. equipment barn with additional living quarters, and a primary operations facility with a walk-in cooler, equipment lifts, diesel heater, exhaust fan, and additional accommodations. Generac backup power systems serve major improvements and infrastructure throughout the property. Fully high-fenced, with significant portions of the perimeter fencing recently replaced, Buena Vista Ranch is ready for immediate enjoyment. Whether you're looking for a private family retreat, a full-time Hill Country residence, a trophy hunting destination, or an established ranch with commercial hunting potential, this property offers the acreage, improvements, wildlife, and infrastructure to accommodate a wide range of uses.
