Property Description
Welcome to the Hye Agarita Ranch! A little over 189 Acres of shear paradise make up this amazing property located right in the perfect part of the Texas Wine Country! Hilltop views, giant live oaks, pretty pastures, and a super nice cozy home are all available with this ranch. You will notice the pictures are amazing, but it truly is better in person! The Hye Agarita is located a mere 5 miles west of Johnson City, just a touch off Hwy 290 via paved private road. It is also 5 miles east of its namesake Hye, Texas, which puts it right in the middle of somewhere awesome! This is exactly the area that is so popular and in high demand. Tracts this size have become more increasingly rare as the area has grown in popularity. Additionally, the ranch is only 25 miles from famed Fredericksburg. If you need to travel by air, it is only 60 miles to the San Antonio airport and 58 miles to the Austin International airport. This perfect location affords many amenities such as the fine dining and entertainment of multiple wineries located near Johnson City and Fredericksburg. The property itself is such a jewel! The pastures are clean, and the trees are perfect. There is a nice perimeter fence with multiple cross fences offering three separate pastures. The land features a significant high point with forever 360-degree hill country views of the Pedernales River valley. There is abundant grass and wildflowers indicating great soils and a wet-weather creek traverses the rear portion of the ranch offering springs/seeps during moist periods. There are scattered oak groves and other hardwoods that are just beautiful. The land has been stewarded nicely and kept clean of major cedar overgrowth. Wildlife is abundant with many whitetail deer, axis deer, wild turkey, songbirds, and many other species of wildlife. If it sounds like a park, well it truly is! Located on the highest point, with 360-degree views, is a super gorgeous +/- 1,650 sf home built in 2006. This above average home is immaculately built with the intended use of a weekend home but could also serve a primary residence or guest home to a future residence. Built with white Texas limestone, a two-car garage and a metal roof, the home sits on the highest point on the property and features amazing views in all directions. The home features one primary suite/full bath, a full utility room, living/dining, office, guest half bath, and large galley kitchen with granite countertops.
