157 Chick Ranch Loop, Blanco, TX, 78606 (TJR Ranch)
Offered at $5,292,000, this rare Blanco County ranch combines Little Blanco River frontage, big Hill Country views, and convenient RM 473 frontage.
Set in the heart of Blanco County, this exceptional ±252-acre ranch captures the raw beauty and lasting appeal of the Texas Hill Country. With approximately 500 feet of Little Blanco River frontage, a pond, wet-weather creeks, two water wells, and panoramic views from rolling elevations, the property offers the kind of natural variation and presence that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
The land is defined by classic Hill Country character, mature oak trees, native grasses, gentle draws, and elevated ridgelines that open to long, scenic views across the surrounding countryside. It is a ranch that feels both usable and visually compelling, equally suited for recreation, hunting, weekend escape, or long-term legacy ownership. A 1,950-square-foot home and barn provide immediate functionality and a comfortable base for enjoying the property from day one. Whether used as a private retreat, a hunting ranch, or the foundation for a more substantial family hold, the improvements support both near-term enjoyment and future vision.
Water is a meaningful part of the ranch. Approximately 500 feet of Little Blanco River frontage, combined with a pond, wet-weather creeks, and two water wells, enhances both the beauty and utility of the property. These features not only support wildlife and recreation, but also contribute to the sense of place that defines quality ranch ownership in this part of Texas. The ranch offers excellent recreational appeal, with strong hunting, hiking, and wildlife viewing throughout. Whitetail deer, turkey, and wild hogs are regularly found on the property, and the varied terrain creates a landscape that is as enjoyable to explore as it is to take in from a high point.
Frontage on RM 473 provides convenient access, while the setting retains the privacy, quiet, and rural character buyers seek in a Hill Country ranch. The property is currently under agricultural exemption, helping keep holding costs lower and making it even more attractive as a recreational or long-term investment property. Despite its privacy, the ranch is well positioned within the Hill Country-just 12 minutes from Blanco, approximately 1 hour and 9 minutes from Austin, 51 minutes from San Antonio, and 53 minutes from Fredericksburg. That combination of access, water, views, and usability makes this a rare offering in one of the most desirable ranch markets in Texas.
