The defining advantage at 126 Buffalo Rd is scale with utility: 65.23 acres, roughly 1,050 feet of Buffalo Road frontage, and a land profile that supports recreation, hunting, and full-time ranch use in Valley Spring, Llano County. For buyers who weigh school path alongside land value, the property is in Llano ISD, with Llano Elementary, Llano Middle, and Llano High serving the area. At an asking price of $1.10M and 59 days on market, this farm-ranch stands out for the amount of usable ground, water infrastructure, and existing improvements already in place.
The ranch has rolling topography with about 40 feet of elevation change, which gives the acreage movement without making it difficult to use. Pastureland sits to the west, while hardwoods and mesquite shape the eastern side, creating a more functional split between open ground and cover. Wildlife is a real part of the property’s value equation here, with Axis, Whitetail, Turkey, Dove, and Hogs reported on site, and a Wildlife Valuation already in place. One blind and two feeders convey. Water is another practical asset. The ranch includes an electric well, a 2,500-gallon storage tank, and a half-acre pond supported by a roughly 1,500-foot wet-weather creek that runs east to west. Full perimeter fencing with 7-strand barbed wire is already established.
The residential improvements are sized for immediate use rather than excess. A remodeled 1,200 square foot home includes two bedrooms and one bathroom, with interior updates completed in 2022 and 2023 while retaining the wood-burning fireplace and foundation. A wraparound porch, detached carport with RV hookups, 30 by 30 hay barn, resurfaced driveway completed in 2025, and a drip system for the pond add practical function. Access also matters here. The ranch is positioned about 35 minutes from both Llano and Mason, and roughly an hour from Fredericksburg, Enchanted Rock, and Horseshoe Bay Resort. For a buyer looking at long-term hold value, this is the kind of Hill Country tract that can work now as a weekend ranch and continue to make sense later as a legacy land position.
