About this property

Private 36-Acre Ranch Near Austin & Dripping Springs - Pond & Fire Pit

  • Your Own Private 36-Acre Ranch Near Austin & Dripping Springs

    Escape to your own private, gated Texas ranch, where 36 peaceful acres of woods, open meadows, and rolling countryside are yours to enjoy.

    Surrounded by towering oaks, private hiking trails, a tranquil pond, a charming orchard, and abundant wildlife, you'll feel a world away from the city while remaining just minutes from Austin and Dripping Springs—the Wedding Capital of Texas and the heart of Texas Wine Country. It's the perfect combination of peaceful seclusion and convenient access to wineries, breweries, restaurants, shopping, swimming holes, and some of Central Texas' most popular wedding venues.

    Start your mornings on the spacious front porch with a cup of coffee as deer gather at the pond and songbirds welcome the day. Spend the afternoon exploring the ranch, relaxing beneath the trees, or watching wildlife from the porch. As evening settles in, gather around the handcrafted stone fire pit beneath a sky full of stars to roast marshmallows, make s'mores, or simply enjoy great conversation. Firewood and roasting forks are provided. A separate covered outdoor entertaining pavilion with lighting and electricity provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining, family gatherings, or relaxing after a day of exploring.

    Designed for Comfort, Privacy & Togetherness

    Inspired by classic Texas ranch architecture with modern comforts throughout, this unique property was thoughtfully designed like a private family compound for extended families, multiple couples, wedding weekends, and friends traveling together.

    A central main house is complemented by two detached guest houses just steps away, together providing three spacious private king suites. The unique layout allows everyone to gather comfortably in the main house while still enjoying the comfort and privacy of their own suite at the end of the day.

    Each spacious bedroom suite (approximately 21' × 18') includes:

    • Five king beds throughout the property, comfortably accommodating up to 8 guests

    • Private en-suite bathroom with plush towels

    • Individual heating and air conditioning controls

    • Smart TV with streaming

    • Mini refrigerator

    • Dedicated workspace

    • Blackout drapes for a restful night's sleep

    After a day exploring the Hill Country, gather in the inviting main living area featuring two leather reclining sofas, a large 70-inch Smart TV, and a gourmet kitchen equipped with quartz countertops, a professional 6-burner Wolf range, double ovens, a Ninja Coffee Bar, and everything needed to prepare anything from a simple breakfast to a holiday feast. Premium high-thread-count linens, protective mattress and pillow covers, professional cleaning, and meticulous preparation help ensure every stay is exceptionally comfortable.

    Explore Your Private Ranch

    One of the greatest luxuries of staying here is having an entire 36-acre ranch all to yourselves.

    Explore nearly half a mile of private walking trails through woods and open meadows. Watch deer, rabbits, turtles, birds, and other wildlife throughout the day. Children enjoy exploring the pond and watching frogs, turtles, dragonflies, and the many birds that visit throughout the day.

    Additional outdoor amenities include:

    • Handcrafted stone fire pit with complimentary firewood

    • Covered outdoor entertaining pavilion

    • Basketball goal

    • Golf wedge practice area (shag bag provided)

    • Fenced orchard with peach, nectarine, apple, pear, and plum trees, along with beautiful roses

    Whether you're looking for outdoor adventure or simply a peaceful place to unwind, the ranch offers plenty of space to enjoy both.

    Close to Everything

    Although you'll enjoy complete privacy on the ranch, you're only minutes from Belterra Village shopping, restaurants, a movie theater, breweries, Texas Wine Country wineries, parks, and swimming holes. Downtown Austin and Sixth Street are only about 25 minutes away, making it easy to experience the city's renowned music, dining, and nightlife before returning to the peace and quiet of your private ranch.

    Whether you're planning a family vacation, wedding weekend, couples' getaway, or special celebration, what makes this property truly special isn't just the home—it's the rare opportunity to enjoy an entire private 36-acre Texas ranch while remaining close to everything Austin, Dripping Springs, and Texas Wine Country have to offer.

    We look forward to welcoming you to our little piece of Texas.
