Landscape:
Hidden Hills Ranch showcases the quintessential Hill Country terrain—rolling elevations ranging from approximately 1,200′ to 1,320′ and dotted with live oaks, native hardwoods, and cedar thickets that provide natural privacy and wildlife cover. The property’s diverse topography creates multiple view corridors and premier building sites overlooking the valleys below. Well-maintained internal roads wind throughout the ranch, providing year-round access to both barndominiums and recreational areas.

A true highlight of Hidden Hills Ranch is its reliable water infrastructure. The property features both a water well with 5,000 gallons of storage and a 2,500-gallon rainwater-collection system, supporting full-time residential use, livestock, or guest accommodations. Natural draws and drainage channels enhance water distribution across the property, making it ideal for wildlife and potential future pond sites.
Improvements:
Hidden Hills Ranch is turnkey and ready to enjoy from day one, featuring two high-quality custom barndominiums designed for comfort and entertaining:

Minimal additional structural improvements leave the ranch as a clean canvas for expansion, whether that’s a main residence, pool, or additional barns. Fencing, entrance, and access roads are all in excellent condition.
Wildlife & Use:
Low-fenced and abundant in native cover, Hidden Hills Ranch supports a strong population of whitetail deer, turkey, dove, and hogs, making it a true year-round recreational property. The mixture of open pastures, oak groves, and wooded hillsides provides excellent habitat diversity. Combined with the water resources and elevation, it’s perfectly suited for both hunting and ranching pursuits. The improvements also lend themselves well to short-term rental income, corporate retreats, or multi-family use.
