DESCRIPTION

Some properties are designed to impress. Others simply make you want to stay.

The Farm on the Hill is one of those rare places that immediately feels like home. Set atop 51 +/- rolling acres just outside Burnet, the property blends the comfort of a beautifully designed modern farmhouse with the freedom of owning your own piece of the Texas Hill Country. Wide front porches overlook gently rolling pastures, mature oaks frame the landscape, and two peaceful ponds anchor a setting that feels both private and inviting.

Life here moves at a different pace. Children spend their afternoons fishing instead of staring at screens. Friends gather around the fire pit after long dinners on the porch. Holidays naturally become centered around the farm because there's simply nowhere else everyone would rather be. Whether it's raising horses, planting a garden, watching wildlife drift through the pasture at dusk, or simply enjoying the quiet that comes with country living, The Farm on the Hill offers the kind of lifestyle that's becoming increasingly difficult to find this close to Austin.

Location

Perfectly positioned just five miles from Burnet, The Farm on the Hill offers the rare convenience of being minutes from town while feeling completely removed from the pace of everyday life. Accessed by paved County Road 330, the property provides easy year-round accessibility without sacrificing privacy.

The ranch is conveniently located approximately:

• 5 miles to Burnet

• 20 miles to Marble Falls

• 36 miles to Llano

• 55 miles to Downtown Austin

• 68 miles to Fredericksburg

Burnet has quietly become one of the Hill Country's most desirable communities. Surrounded by Lake Buchanan, Inks Lake, Longhorn Caverns, and countless wineries and restaurants, the area offers endless opportunities for recreation while maintaining the authentic small-town charm that first made people fall in love with the Texas Hill Country.

Landscape

The Farm on the Hill is exactly what its name suggests.

The property rises gently to the homesite before rolling away into open pastures, scattered hardwoods, and beautiful native grasses. Rather than dramatic canyons or rugged terrain, this is soft, usable country—the kind of land that invites horses to graze, children to roam, and families to spend their afternoons outside.

Large oak trees are scattered naturally across the landscape, providing shade and character without overwhelming the openness of the property. Every season brings a different personality, from spring wildflowers and emerald green pastures to golden winter sunsets stretching across the surrounding countryside.

The manageable acreage provides room to breathe while remaining easy to care for, making it equally suited for full-time living or a weekend escape.

Improvements

The heart of the property is a beautifully constructed 3,800 +/- square foot custom farmhouse, completed in 2014 and thoughtfully designed around the way families actually live.

Offering four bedrooms and four bathrooms, the home features spacious gathering areas, an open-concept kitchen, and expansive windows that constantly draw the outdoors inside. Whether hosting Thanksgiving dinner, entertaining friends after a day on the lake, or simply enjoying a quiet evening with family, every room feels warm, comfortable, and connected to the surrounding land.

Wide covered porches wrap the home, becoming natural extensions of the living space throughout much of the year.

Supporting the home is a substantial 40' x 60' barn with 14-foot eaves, providing abundant room for tractors, equipment, RVs, boats, workshops, or future horse facilities. Whether your interests lean toward ranching, hobbies, or simply needing extra storage, the improvements provide exceptional flexibility.

Water Features

Two picturesque ponds add both beauty and functionality to the property.

One has been stocked with catfish and has all the makings of becoming a favorite gathering place for children, grandchildren, and guests alike. These aren't simply water features—they're places where memories are made, whether teaching someone to fish for the first time or ending the day watching the reflections settle across the water.

The home is serviced by dependable Co-Op water, while surrounding well logs indicate groundwater typically encountered between 325 and 590 feet within the Trinity Aquifer, providing confidence for future water development if desired.

Wildlife

Despite being only minutes from Burnet, wildlife remains a constant part of everyday life.

Whitetail deer frequently cross the pastures during the evening hours, wild turkey move through the hardwoods, and dove and countless native songbirds keep the property alive throughout every season. The ponds and scattered oak trees naturally attract wildlife, making it just as enjoyable to watch from the porch as it is to explore on foot.

Use & Investment

The Farm on the Hill offers exceptional flexibility for a wide range of buyers.

Whether you're looking for a primary residence with room to spread out, a horse property, a family retreat, or simply a beautiful piece of Texas to enjoy on weekends, the improvements and location allow the property to adapt to nearly any vision.

Properties that combine quality construction, manageable acreage, beautiful scenery, and close proximity to Austin continue to become increasingly scarce, making this not only a wonderful place to live but also a compelling long-term investment.

Summary

The Farm on the Hill isn't defined by acreage or improvements—it's defined by the life waiting to be lived here.

It's birthday parties in the barn, kids fishing until dark, Sunday dinners that somehow last all afternoon, horses grazing beneath the oaks, and mornings that begin with nothing more pressing than deciding which porch to drink your coffee on.

With 51 +/- beautiful acres, a thoughtfully designed custom farmhouse, two scenic ponds, an outstanding barn, abundant wildlife, and an unbeatable location just minutes from Burnet, The Farm on the Hill offers the opportunity to slow down, spread out, and enjoy a way of life that's becoming increasingly difficult to find in Central Texas.

It's not just a ranch. It's the place everyone hopes someone in the family owns.
