Llano County - 2300 Ranch Road 2323, Llano, TX
Location:
Situated in the rolling terrain of the iconic Texas Hill Country, the C Bar Ranch spans approximately 930 picturesque acres just 2.2 miles west-southwest of Llano, Texasa charming, historic town with a population of 3,635. Ideally situated for both seclusion and convenience, the ranch offers a perfect blend of tranquil rural living and easy access to urban amenities. It's located within a scenic drive to major metropolitan areas: Austin (72 miles), San Antonio (107 miles), and Fort Worth (190 miles), making it an excellent candidate for a weekend retreat, hunting escape, or long-term investment opportunity. The location offers both peaceful isolation and connectivity, ideal for those seeking a balance between privacy and accessibility.
Elevation:
The ranch showcases a gentle elevation change of approximately 100 feet, creating natural high points that provide expansive, panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. These subtle elevation shifts lend the property a rolling, dynamic topography that enhances its visual appeal and opens up possibilities for scenic homesites, observation points, and picturesque trails. From these vantage points, visitors can take in sweeping vistas of the Texas Hill Country, dotted with native vegetation and wildlife.
Improvements:
A custom-built main residence, constructed in 2017, anchors the property. This well-appointed home spans roughly 3,300 square feet and offers 4 spacious bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, all designed for comfort, function, and rustic elegance. The backyard serves as a private oasis, featuring a resort-style pool and a relaxing hot tub, perfect for unwinding under the stars or entertaining guests.
In addition to the main house, the ranch includes two comfortable and functional cabins, measuring approximately 1,800 and 980 square feet, respectively. These are currently occupied by ranch hands and their families, ensuring ongoing care and presence on the property.
For operational needs, there is a sturdy 2-bay metal shop with an extended awning for shaded workspace or equipment storage. A well-maintained roping arena offers excellent infrastructure for equestrian activities, training, or recreational rodeo events. Nearby, a durable set of working and livestock pens provides essential facilities for managing cattle and other livestock, adding both utility and value to the property.
Water:
Water is abundant on the C Bar Ranch, a critical asset in this region of Texas. Flag Creek, a seasonal creek, runs throughout the northern portion of the C Bar for 1.5 miles.
The property has eight water wells, four of which are currently operational (3 electric, 1 solar), supplying water throughout the various pastures, livestock pens, and residential areas. This water infrastructure ensures reliability for both agricultural operations and domestic use, enhancing the ranchs sustainability and appeal.
Soils:
The ranchs soil composition is primarily Ligon fine sandy loam and Katemcy fine sandy loam, known for their fertility and versatility. These soils support healthy grass growth and are conducive to a wide variety of vegetation, making them ideal for grazing, wildlife habitat, or small-scale farming ventures. Scattered granite outcroppings add visual interest and a touch of rugged character to the land. Approximately 7580% of the property is well-suited for cultivating native grasses and supporting diverse ecosystems.
Wildlife:
The C Bar Ranch teems with diverse and abundant wildlife, offering exceptional hunting and wildlife observation opportunities. Native
species include white-tailed deer, wild turkeys, bobwhite quail, mourning doves, and feral hogs. Predatory species such as coyotes,
raccoons, red foxes, and gray foxes roam the terrain, contributing to the ranchs natural ecological balance.
In recent years, axis deer, a sought-after exotic species, have been occasionally sighted on the propertythough it's not confirmed if they have established a permanent presence. The ranch also serves as a seasonal haven for native birds and migratory waterfowl, which can often be seen gathering around the ranchs ponds and seasonal creek beds, particularly during the spring and fall migrations. For the avid outdoorsman or conservation-minded buyer, the ranch presents an ideal setting for wildlife management, photography, and hunting.

Llano County - Llano, TX
In the heart of the Llano Granite Uplift - on the south bank of Llano River, is a magnificent ranch property offered for sale for the first time on the open market. The ranch encompasses 1,160 acres on the south side of HWY 152 (a very quiet rural 2-lane blacktop), along with 5.41 riverfront acres on the north side of the same road. The Llano River frontage here is as good as it gets - a cataract of whitewater rapids carves through a huge granite outcropping, then culminates in a deep, clear pool lined with massive boulders. Smoothed by centuries of flowing water, the rocks slope gently down to the water's edge - providing more than a football field's length of convenient access to the river - usable for guests of all ages and abilities. Hickory Creek, a tributary to the Llano River, is an exceptional water feature on the ranch as well. Hickory Creek runs through the center of the ranch for approximately 2 miles, flowing over a major granite outcropping at the downstream end that is picturesque and private. Hickory Creek flows full-time in many places on the ranch during normal rainfall years. In the springtime, the wildflower display on the ranch is nothing short of spectacular.
LOCATION
The ranch is located in Llano County, approximately 15 minutes west of the town of Llano, 1.5 hours west of Austin, and less than 2 hours north of San Antonio. The charming, popular, and unincorporated town of Castell is located 5 miles west of the ranch on HWY 152.
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
Approximately 80 million years ago, when the Balcones Fault shifted and the Texas Hill Country was born, the ranch and the surrounding area experienced a massive uplift of solid granite and other highly compressed rock formations that came from near the core of the earth. Over time, this phenomenon has created an entirely different ecosystem than the limestone formations and hills typical of most of central Texas. For millions of years, the granite in this area has eroded to create red sandy soils that are very fertile. These soils support the highest quality native vegetation for wildlife, with diverse brush species and enhanced habitat components. The juniper (cedar) trees that are invasive to much of Central Texas do not thrive here they dislike the soil. Instead, the ranch is covered with mature live oaks, post oaks, scattered mesquite trees, beautiful granite outcroppings, native prairie grasses, spectacular spring wildflowers, and a broad selection of brush that is excellent food and cover for wildlife. Multiple hilltop sites on the ranch present panoramic, horizon views.
WILDLIFE
White-tailed deer in this area grow larger than most of Central Texas, bobwhite quail can be plentiful in good rainfall years, and Rio Grande turkeys roost along Hickory Creek in very healthy numbers.
IMPROVEMENTS
A newly renovated master suite with full kitchen, master bath, and large attached shop/garage is located on the riverfront. Also newly renovated is the 2 bedroom cabin with full kitchen and bath. The riverfront includes 4 RV hookup sites, a large outdoor stone fireplace and concrete slab entertaining area, and domestic water well. South of HWY 152 there is a spectacular hilltop homesite with power and new water well just waiting for the ranch house of your dreams.
WATER
There are approximately 333 feet of Llano River frontage that is best of the best and approximately 2 miles of Hickory Creek within the ranch that flows year-round with average rainfall. The property has 4 windmills for livestock water and 2 domestic water wells with electric pumps.
MINERALS
Surface sale only.
AREA HISTORY
For centuries, the wildlife-rich Llano Uplift was inhabited and claimed by the Native American Tonkawa tribe. During the European colonization, the Comanche tribe displaced the Tonkawas and claimed the area due to their superior horsemanship skills. Today, artifacts dating back thousands of years can still be found in the area.

Just steps from Enchanted Rock State Park, it offers the rare combination of refined living, privacy, access to unmatched recreation, and unrestricted enjoyment.
Seller financing can be negotiated.
Location & Setting:
Located directly across the road from Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, this ranch enjoys front-row views of and evening sunsets over the famed pink granite dome - one of Texas' most recognizable geological landmarks. This setting provides both peaceful seclusion and unparalleled access to the park's 1,644 acres of public parkland (soon to be 5,388 acres), where visitors can enjoy hiking, rock climbing, birding, stargazing, picnicking, camping, and nature exploration. Perfectly positioned 20 miles north of the booming town of Fredericksburg and 21 miles south of Llano, the ranch is within easy reach of wine country and small-town charm, and about 90 miles from both Austin and San Antonio. Access is easy and impressive thanks to an asphalt driveway leading from the paved county road up to the main improvements.
Land & Wildlife:
The property's landscape is a thoughtful blend of open pastures, wooded creek bottom, and usable acreage, offering variety, privacy, and functionality. The property benefits greatly from an Agricultural Tax Valuation maintained by a few cows which could be converted to Wildlife Management. Roughly 20 acres of mature hardwoods flank 685 feet of Keener Branch Creek, a seasonal waterway shaded by large pecan and live oak trees. A scenic highlight and peaceful retreat is the 0.25-acre tank, built with a poly liner and equipped with a fishing dock. Approximately 16 acres, including the improved area, are high-fenced, with the balance low-fenced, allowing whitetail deer, axis, dove, ducks, and Rio Grande turkey to roam freely across the ranch. A portion of the front pasture is equipped with numerous irrigation lines, offering a future owner the opportunity to plant a vineyard, start a fruit tree orchard, or simply leave the area open for grazing or recreation. The eastern portion of the property, rich with hardwoods and granite outcroppings, offers a blank Hill Country canvas for additional homesites, trails, or wildlife improvements.
Main Residence:
Completed in 2020, the ~4,000 sqft 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath residence was designed by Nadeau Architecture and built by Bill Dunn, blending timeless architecture with clean, modern lines and premium finishes throughout. The home features two large bedrooms with ensuite baths downstairs, a spacious den, office, and a formal seating/living area with built in surround sound throughout.

The open design connects seamlessly to the main living areas, allowing natural light and Hill Country views to fill the space while maintaining a warm, refined feel. The primary suite is a showpiece, featuring a fireplace, exquisite bath, and large windows that invite in views of landscape. Every space is detailed with top-of-the-line fixtures and finishes including a Kohler Stargaze freestanding air bath. Off the back of the home is a large fully screened in back porch that abuts what would be an excellent area for the addition of a pool. The residence is connected via a covered walkway to a two car garage with more storage space, and is supported by two active water wells plus a third well drilled but not yet completed.
Equestrian & Multi-Use Facility:
Originally designed as a premium equestrian complex, this property now offers exceptional versatility for a variety of future uses. With its massive clear-span design, the covered arena could easily be converted into a large workshop, event venue, expanded living quarters, or a mixture of any of these uses. The seller has provided architectural renderings of what some of these alternative uses for the arena could look like.
The professional grade covered arena sits at 12,300 sqft and includes six opulent 12x12 stalls with waterers and cameras, indoor tack-up bays, a wash bay, and a temperature-controlled tack room. In the second story of the facility sits a guest suite with a full kitchen, full bath, and laundry closet that could be perfect for a live in foreman. A spectator lounge and a large observation deck overlook the covered arena. Additional bonus features include 40 linear LED lights, audio system, commercial sized fans, and previously housed Pinnacle footing. There is also a large outdoor arena with excellent drainage. The footing from both the covered and outdoor arenas has been scraped, cleaned, sorted by layer into tote bags, and stored out of the elements. A new owner may choose to reuse the existing footing from both arenas, replace it with another material depending on discipline, sell it off with/without the aid of the seller, or repurpose the entire structure. A robust rainwater collection system that draws off the expansive arena roof ensures an abundant, sustainable water supply.
Enchanted Rock Ranch combines luxury, versatility, and location in one of the Hill Country's most coveted settings. With its proximity to Enchanted Rock, turnkey infrastructure, and unmatched scenery, the property offers endless potential - whether envisioned as a private residence, recreational retreat, equestrian estate/business, or event destination.
