This 7.26 acres of breathtaking Texas Hill Country await you at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the gated section of Ruby Ranch. This rare, undeveloped property—just minutes from Austin—offers an extraordinary opportunity to build your dream home in a setting that is both private and truly unforgettable. What makes this lot so special is its remarkable natural setting. One entire boundary—1,374 feet—backs to thousands of acres of protected conservancy land (Water Quality Protection Lands, WQPL), ensuring lasting privacy and uninterrupted natural views. At the rear, 714 feet of frontage along scenic Onion Creek provides the soothing sounds of flowing water (on rainy years) and a beautiful, wooded backdrop. The land itself is nothing short of spectacular. Towering, majestic oaks, elms, cypress, and native Hill Country trees create a stunning canopy and a sense of timeless beauty. Open grassland meadows blend seamlessly with mature forest, offering peaceful walking trails and picturesque views of Onion Creek and the surrounding Hill Country. It’s a setting that feels miles away from everything—yet it’s incredibly close to Austin. Underground electricity and water connections are available at the street entrance to the lot. Convenient access to Austin is just 7.6 miles away via SH 45 SW Toll Road. A custom home thoughtfully designed for this specific lot by award-winning architect Elliot Johnson, IAI, is available, with details and images provided upon request.
