Honey Creek Ranch Road, Hunt, TX 78024 - Kerr County

Looking for your own glorious piece of the Hill Country? Look no farther than this 154-acre ranch, located just 5 minutes from the Hunt Store in the river-crossed heartland of Kerr County.

Hunt, Texas, the tiny community located at the confluence of the north and south forks of the Guadalupe River and just 15 minutes from Kerrville, is arguably the Hill Country's most sought after address. The Hunt-area, which has plenty of rural character and elbow room, is an easy drive from San Antonio and Austin.

Used as a recreational ranch, the high-fenced property is home to a host of exotics including Aoudad sheep, blackbuck antelope, and Corsican rams. White-tailed deer and other native game also roam the ranch.

The topography has just the right rough edge. Hills, covered with a mix of oak, juniper and native brush, rise, flatten and then fall into the draws below.

The 3,000-square foot main house features 3 or 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths and 2 fireplaces. An expansive swimming pool, complete with a sprawling deck perfect for soaking up the sun and the views, is located near the main house. The second house, suitable for guests or staff, includes 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and encompasses 1,700 square feet.

When it comes to ranch infrastructure, the ranch boasts a traditional "big, red barn" as well as a pole barn with 9 horse stalls. Two water wells supply the ranch's domestic and livestock needs.
