An exceptional, one-of-a-kind ranch estate set on approximately 75 acres just minutes from the Calallen center, offering a rare combination of refined living, extensive improvements, and true South Texas ranch lifestyle. This meticulously maintained property showcases pride of ownership at every turn, delivering both luxury and versatility. The residence spans approximately 4,322 sq.ft. and features 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, thoughtfully designed for both everyday comfort and large-scale entertaining. Three spacious living areas provide flexibility for spaces such as a game room and gym. In addition, there is a very rare safety room basement! The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a spa-like en-suite bathroom with impressive finishes, a bath/shower combination and an expansive closet that exceeds expectations. Outdoor living is equally impressive, highlighted by a stunning swimming pool with a dramatic waterfall feature and a large covered patio designed for entertaining and enjoying the surrounding views.

The land is well-equipped and highly functional, featuring deer-proof fencing, cross fencing, a pond, cattle pens, and an abundance of wildlife. Mature, groomed trees are scattered throughout the property, enhancing both beauty and usability. Improvements are extensive and thoughtfully designed, including 3 substantial metal buildings: a 40x60 workshop complete with a ranch hand apartment, a 30x50 RV shop, and an impressive 60x120 air-conditioned, finished-out car shop featuring a bathroom and a second rare basement space. Additional property features include a reverse osmosis system and a generator, providing efficiency and peace of mind. This property offers a unique opportunity to own a turnkey ranch estate that seamlessly blends luxury, functionality, and convenience—an increasingly rare find in the Calallen area.
