Description

Welcome to Tres Chivos Viejos Ranch, a breathtaking 695.18-acre property nestled along the emerald waters of the Llano River. With approximately 6,000 feet of river frontage—some of which includes both sides of the river—this ranch offers an extraordinary variety of water features, including aqua-blue holes, tranquil pools, dazzling rapids, and expansive rock shelves, all teeming with fish of all types. The river’s rock bottom provides stunning water clarity with a Caribbean-tinted aqua blue hue, making it a paradise for fishing, swimming, and enjoying nature’s beauty. The mix of shallow shelves and deeper pools creates perfect spots for both kids and adults to have a memorable experience.

At the heart of the ranch stands a magnificent lodge-style home, spanning approximately 3,930 square feet. This inviting residence features five spacious bedrooms, four baths, and a grand lodge room with a towering double-sided walk-around rock fireplace and ceilings soaring over 20 feet. Large porches wrap around the house, offering ample space to relax and take in the serene surroundings, while a rock outdoor firepit area provides the perfect spot to gather and enjoy panoramic views of the river valley.

The land itself is a masterpiece of diversity, with several high viewpoints offering sweeping vistas of the river and lush bottomland, rich with plentiful cover for wildlife. Multiple natural springs enhance the property’s abundant water resources, adding to the strong live-water dynamic and supporting a thriving ecosystem. The western portion of the ranch features easily accessible river frontage via a road that forms the western border, where dramatic bluff walls rise from the water, creating an incredibly striking backdrop.

Practical improvements add to the ranch’s appeal. In addition to the spacious ranch house—ideal for housing a large family and guests—there is a functional barn with a concrete slab and roll-up doors, perfect for storage or hobbies. Four strong water wells, strategically located across different areas of the ranch, ensure a reliable water supply for both the land and its wildlife. There are also two springs that flow consistently, one of which has an old concrete spring box from days long ago.

Access to Tres Chivos Viejos Ranch is via Tres Chivos Viejos Road, a private and well-maintained easement road that ensures privacy and ease of entry. The ranch is conveniently located approximately two hours from both Austin and San Antonio—key buyer markets—and about 3.5 hours from Midland. The charming community of Mason, just 14 miles away, adds a positive draw with its small-town appeal and essential amenities.

Tres Chivos Viejos Ranch is more than a property—it’s a legacy. Whether you’re seeking a private retreat, a family estate, or a haven for outdoor adventures, this ranch promises endless possibilities in one of Texas’s most picturesque settings.
