420 Acres, Gillespie County
Once inaccessible and without views, this property was developed into a premier ranch with sweeping 100-mile vistas, the largest private lake in the county, and beautifully restored historic structures. We built roads, thinned cedar to preserve legacy oaks, resurfaced pastures, and carefully rebuilt a mid-1800s farmhouse and early 1800s log barn.
