    Grand Vista Ranch – Mediterranean Elegance. Untamed Texas Beauty. Perched high above the rolling hills of northern Brown County, this extraordinary ranch brings together breathtaking Texas vistas, remarkable privacy, abundant wildlife and the elegance of a Spanish Mediterranean estate in a setting that feels worlds away. The 508.86-acre ranch is anchored by a highly customized 6,309 SF residence where a grand entry with soaring ceilings, massive imported Cantera stone columns, graceful arches and a sweeping curved staircase sets the tone. Reclaimed hand-hewn heart pine flooring, custom knotty alder woodwork, travertine, exposed beams and wrought-iron details continue throughout. The chef’s kitchen features GE Monogram appliances, granite countertops, large island, copper farmhouse sink, butler’s pantry and walk-in pantry. A NanaWall with Phantom Screen opens the great room to the outdoors and sweeping views. The main level includes the primary suite and private guest-mother-in-law suite, with 3 additional bedrooms, gym-optional bedroom and study upstairs. More than 2,200 SF of covered outdoor living surrounds a 1,000+ SF infinity-edge pool with separate spa, natural-stone waterfall, waterslide and fire features. Across the ranch, approx. 140' of elevation change spans 4 hilltops, with approx. 493 acres of native tree and brush cover, 3.5 stocked ponds, food plots, wells and abundant whitetail deer, turkey, dove and ducks. A 3,000 SF insulated shop with substantial covered overhangs, livestock stalls and arena complements the ranch improvements. Gated entrance, paved frontage and paved drive. The western boundary adjoins the 2,178-acre Burns Wildlife Management Area, further enhancing the remarkable privacy and recreational appeal. Approx. 15 miles north of Brownwood. Grand Vista Ranch is a rare opportunity to own an extraordinary combination of luxury, privacy, recreation and untamed Texas beauty.
