Lot 44

A creek bends along the southwest edge of Tract 44 on Alamo Ranch, running a slow curve under a stone bluff before the ground begins its long climb north. This is 67.29 acres of Hill Country ranch land for sale in Edwards County, Texas, 13 miles south of Rocksprings off Highway 55, and the shape of it tells you how to use it the moment you walk it. The low ground sits along that southwest creek line, where the bluff of pale rock catches the light and gives the water its edge. From there the land rises gradually toward the north, an easy, unhurried grade rather than a steep pitch, so you read the whole tract as one long tilt from creek bottom up to high ground.

The cover here is honest and open. This is not thick, tangled country. The larger trees run thin, more smaller brush and scattered bushes across the ground, with a fair share of oaks holding their own where the soil allows. That openness is worth something to a hunter and to anyone who likes to see. Set a camp on top of the hill and you overlook your own half of the valley below, room enough to glass for deer working the far country, to watch the seasons move across the draws, and to keep an eye on who is coming down the road. Access to that high ground is easy, which matters when you are hauling in materials or just coming home after dark.

The south line runs entirely along our new ranch road, so you come onto the property on a solid graded surface and have deeded frontage the full length of that boundary. A power line runs down the center of the tract, and electric already reaches near the county road and at points across the wider ranch, which puts service within reasonable reach when you are ready to build. The north side is already fenced, so if you ever want to work animals or close in the place, three sides is all that is left to run.

This is real Edwards County, the country around Rocksprings that has long carried whitetail and axis deer, aoudad, elk, turkey, dove, and hogs across its rolling hills and creek bottoms. Light restrictions keep the neighbors honest, there is no commercial hunting, and owner financing runs with as little as five percent down. Come walk the creek, stand on the hilltop, and see how the valley opens up below you. Give us a call to set a time.
