About this home
Set in a prime location less than 15 minutes from Main Street, Hermit Hill Ranch offers a rare blend of Hill Country privacy, elevation, and proximity in the very heart of the Texas Wine & Hill Country.
The ranch spans ±91 acres of classic Gillespie County terrain, featuring rolling topography, long-range views, and elevations approaching 1,950 feet. Native hardwoods including live oaks, red oaks, elm, and native cherry are scattered throughout, providing excellent cover for wildlife and a scenic, park-like setting. Open pastureland along the eastern portion of the property lends itself to horses or livestock, while the balance of the ranch offers gently rolling hills and a pond that fronts the cabin and casita.
The property has been thoughtfully improved with the addition of a 3-bedroom, 3-bath cabin (±1,400 sq ft, built in 2022)—a comfortable and well-appointed residence ideal for weekend use, full-time living, or entertaining family and guests. Complementing the main cabin is a ±576 sq ft, 1-bedroom, 1-bath casita, currently utilized as a short-term rental or flexible guest space, offering immediate income potential or private accommodations for visitors.
Infrastructure includes electricity on site, perimeter fencing with cross fencing, and a 37GPM water well. The property fronts FM 1631 and is located near the historic Cave Creek community, one of Gillespie County’s most desirable rural corridors.
For the nature lover, Hermit Hill Ranch supports abundant wildlife, including whitetail deer, wild turkey, and the occasional axis deer, all drawn to the property’s mix of native cover, open pasture, and water. Whether enjoyed from the porch, explored on foot, or simply observed in their natural habitat, the land offers a peaceful connection to the outdoors that defines Hill Country living.
Rarely does a property of this size, character, and location come available so close to Fredericksburg’s renowned dining, wineries, boutiques, and cultural attractions. Hermit Hill Ranch represents a compelling Hill Country opportunity—equally suited for recreation, retreat, or legacy ownership.
