Property Description

A closer look at 9259 TURKEY BARN LN.

Welcome to San Saba River Landing, an exceptional 14.88-acre riverfront retreat tucked along the peaceful banks of the famed San Saba River in the heart of Texas ranch country. Blending rustic Hill Country charm with the relaxed atmosphere of a private river escape, this unrestricted and wildlife-exempt property offers a rare opportunity to own highly usable live-water land with quality improvements already in place, including over 418 linear feet of beautiful San Saba River frontage. From the moment you enter via county-maintained Turkey Barn Lane, the pace of life begins to slow. Towering hardwoods line the riverbank, casting deep shade across the water while the sounds of the river drift through the property. The setting feels private, welcoming, and deeply connected to the land - the kind of place built for family gatherings, weekends on the water, and evenings spent beneath endless Texas skies. Anchoring the ranch is a beautifully remodeled approximately 1,890 square-foot two-story home offering 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. All bedrooms are located upstairs, creating separation and privacy from the main entertaining areas below. Downstairs, a spacious kitchen, formal living room, and comfortable gathering spaces create a warm atmosphere ideal for hosting after long days outdoors. Rustic finishes, large windows, and natural light throughout the home blend classic ranch character with modern comfort. Complementing the main residence are two detached guest homes, each featuring 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom along with private kitchens and living spaces. Altogether, the ranch comfortably accommodates approximately 13-15 guests, making it exceptionally well suited for extended family retreats, entertaining, or short-term rental opportunities. San Saba River Landing enjoys an outstanding location within one of the most scenic regions of Central Texas, positioned approximately 60 miles from Fredericksburg and roughly 120 miles from San Antonio. The surrounding area is defined by large neighboring ranches, low-density ownership, and the quiet beauty that has long drawn generations to the Hill Country. The ranch offers a rare blend of peaceful seclusion and practical accessibility. The landscape captures the authentic spirit of rural Texas. Mature live oaks stretch across the river corridor while mesquite and native brush blend naturally into the surrounding countryside. The combination of river frontage, hardwoods, and usable land creates a setting that feels both rugged and refined. With over 418 feet of San Saba River frontage, the river serves as the centerpiece of the ranch, offering clear flowing water ideal for fishing, kayaking, swimming, or simply relaxing along the shaded banks. Mornings begin with coffee overlooking the water, afternoons are spent floating the river, and evenings wind down beneath the stars listening to the current move through the trees. The low-fenced perimeter allows native wildlife and free-ranging exotics to move naturally throughout the property, further enhancing the recreational appeal and authentic ranch atmosphere. Native whitetail deer, turkey, dove, and free-ranging exotic game are commonly seen across the ranch and along the river corridor. Additional improvements include a private water well servicing all three residences, dependable county-maintained access, and unrestricted flexibility for future use. Whether utilized as a private family retreat, an income-producing getaway, or a long-term legacy property, the ranch offers exceptional versatility rarely found on smaller live-water tracts. San Saba River Landing represents a rare opportunity to own unrestricted live-water property with quality improvements, guest accommodations, abundant wildlife, and one of the most sought-after recreational features in Texas - a beautiful stretch of the San Saba River.
