Property description

Once you enter beautiful Walker Ranch on Barton Creek you quickly forget that you are less than 30 miles from downtown Austin and only five miles from booming Dripping Springs. This live water ranch, along with the surrounding 1,200± acres, can never be developed, providing a genuinely rare opportunity for privacy and preservation of its natural beauty. Along with the luxury living quarters, this extremely well-maintained property also features top-notch equestrian facilities, making this a great weekend getaway, personal residence or a full-time equestrian facility.
Improvements: The thoughtfully placed 22,000± sf covered riding arena, attached to the 3,325-sf luxury home, sits just off Barton Creek with tranquil views overlooking the nearby white fenced pastures. The impressive lighted arena has geo tech footing installed by Attwood Equestrian Surfaces, sprinkler system, containment fence, plus an observation room located in the living quarters. This arena has been primarily used for dressage but would be ideal for hunter/jumper or western riding, as well.
VEGETATION-TERRAIN: This property is loaded with large trees including several species of Oaks, Cedar Elms, and Walnut along the creek and a few areas of Cedar thickets which provide refuge for the wildlife. The well-maintained open pastures along Barton Creek have deep soils and impressive stands of native grasses. The terrain along the creek is primarily level. The east end of the property has a more noticeable elevation change and there are several locations with long distance views of the Texas Hill County.
WILDLIFE: This property is loaded with native wildlife which includes whitetail deer, turkey, dove, varmints, various songbirds and much more.
TAXES: Wildlife Exempt.
