Lot 5-C

Start at the north fence and walk the line, and you'll get the shape of this tract of X-E Ranch ranch land for sale in Kimble County. Fence runs the north side, the east side, and the west side, so three of the four edges are called out on the ground as you walk them. The piece is long and narrow, better than three and a half times as long as it is wide, and that shape sits up on top of the hill. 16 -1/2 acres. Walk the north line first, and by the time you're through you're standing at the high edge of the Hill Country most folks only see when they close their eyes.

What you'll remember a week after you leave is the quiet. It was dead still the day I walked it. No cars, no highway hum, just wind moving through and whatever the birds were up to. You stand up here and the country falls away in front of you, and the views run out across the live oak hills the way they do in this part of Texas and nowhere quite the same. That's the thing about a tract on top. You can see.

The ground rolls easy across the place, only about 22 ft of fall from one side to the other, so it's high country without the climb. An existing dirt ranch road runs across most of the tract, roughly 2,070 ft of it, and that trail is how you get around without cutting anything new. Call it a road or a trail, nothing more; the deed and plat govern how you come and go, and we'll go over that with you. There are a few rock shelves scattered through, nothing that'll stop you, and I turned up a flint spot or two out there. Engines walked this hill a long time before us.

One thing worth naming straight. There's a 2 in black poly water line still on the tract, though there was no tank there the day I walked it. I can't tell you where that line runs from or to, and I won't guess. If water's part of your plan, come see it with us and we'll show you exactly what's there and what isn't, and you can decide for yourself.

Junction sits north of here, and Harper to your east. Close enough to stop in at Waldo's for a steak and some donuts. If you need provisions with a bit more substance I-10 is just a few miles off 290, then a straight shot to Kerrville.

Access is deeded and the restrictions stay light, no commercial use, so no new data centers here. This is ranch land and it's going to stay that way, so nothing that gets in the way of a home or a weekend place. Owner financing comes with the land, as little as 5% down. Come walk it in the cool of a fall morning when the wind's up and the light's long across the oaks, and bring good boots for the rock. We'll meet you at the gate.
