TEXAS HILL COUNTRY RANCH REAL ESTATE
Hill Country Living at its Best
The Lake on Flat Creek is a 515-acre ranch property adjacent to enchanting Johnson City in the heart of the Texas Hill Country with spectacular views. The ranch features lush rolling pastures with large majestic live oak, post oak, walnut, sycamore, pecan and cedar elm trees. There is a variety of land — open cleared fields, granite, dense and sparse tree cover, creeks, a huge lake, and excellent red sandy soil that is exceptional for horses.
This one-of-a-kind ranch property offers you privacy, views, trees, paved private roads, automatic entry gates, creeks and a lake all in close proximity to shopping, restaurants, recreational activities, and police and fire protection gives you peace of mind whether you are buying ranchland for your primary home, second home, investment or just to own a piece of Texas Hill Country.
Lake on Flat Creek is on the north side and adjacent to the city limits of Johnson City. The Pedernales River is about 1/2 mile east of the property. Austin is approximately 48 miles, Blanco 12, Fredericksburg 36, Burnet 34, Horseshoe Bay 23, Marble Falls 26, Houston 210, Dallas 205, Fort Worth 202, and San Antonio 66. Blanco County's Sheriff and Fire Department are less than two miles from the ranch. The closest landing strips are Horseshoe Bay (6,000 ft. x 100 ft, lighted), Burnet (5,000 ft. x 75 ft., lighted), and Fredericksburg (4,600 ft. x 75 ft., lighted).
This astonishing property offers you the opportunity to enjoy one of the Hill Country's most treasured secrets — beautiful ranch land next to Johnson City. In Lake on Flat Creek's entire 515.5-acres, there are only 21 picturesque single-family tracts for sale. Each tract has its own unique features and identity.
By protecting the environment we have also enhanced the habitat for wild game and fish. There are plenty of deer, quail, and turkey seen on the property. The entire tract is approved as a Wildlife Management Area by Blanco County. A consultant has been engaged by the Homeowner's Association to supervise and maintain the Wildlife Management Area requirements to achieve the tax exemption on an annual basis.
The Wildlife Management Area plan was established with a goal of maximizing aesthetic values detailing recommended management practices. The goal is to protect wildlife and their habitat for the entire area. Preparation and maintenance of an active meaningful wildlife and habitat management plan is the primary aim.
