1292 Upper Turtle Creek Rd, Kerrville, TX 78028

Perched at high elevation on 39 acres, this property offers privacy, long-range Hill Country views, rare live water, and potential off-grid capability—all just a short drive from Kerrville. This highly improved ranchette features a custom 2,277 sq ft hilltop home with guest quarters, thoughtfully designed for efficiency, comfort, and year-round living. The main home and guest house are connected by a large covered breezeway that opens into a beautifully landscaped, privately fenced courtyard—ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining, and stargazing. The land is anchored by approximately 400 feet of improved, dammed live-water Tomas Creek, owned on both sides. A constructed dam creates a deep fishing and swimming hole. A natural spring feeds the system in non-drought years. Water and energy infrastructure set this property apart. All structures feature rainwater collection totaling 29,000 gallons of storage, supported by a multi-stage filtration system delivering high-quality water. A well, drilled in 2016 with an initial flow test of 35 GPM, currently serves irrigation and is plumbed for residential use if desired. Solar panels and a wind turbine provide efficient power generation, offering strong off-grid or low-utility-cost potential. A 1,080 sq ft barndominium across the valley provides shop and equipment storage, recreation space, three air-conditioned guest rooms with a 3/4 bath, and also benefits from rainwater collection. The property lies within a 369 acre game-fenced community shared by only four owners and accessed via an electronic gated entrance. Native and exotic wildlife are abundant, and the property maintains an agricultural tax exemption through wildlife management. Extensive land improvements—including selective clearing, native planting, creek enhancement, and trail maintenance—create a polished yet natural Hill Country setting. Most high-end furnishings convey, and select equipment for ongoing maintenance is available by separate negotiation.

The standout fact at 1292 Upper Turtle Creek Rd is simple: 39 acres, about 400 feet of improved live-water Tomas Creek, and a hilltop home priced at $1.75 million, or $769 per square foot. At 1292 Upper Turtle Creek Rd in Kerrville, Texas 78028, this Farm - Single Family Residence delivers the kind of scale, privacy, and water access that rarely line up in one Kerr County property.

The main residence was built in 2010 and spans 2,277 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a fireplace, and a 2-car garage. The house sits high above the creek with long Hill Country views, but the land is what changes the equation. A constructed dam creates a deep swimming and fishing hole along Tomas Creek, and the property owns both sides of the water. In a market where many rural listings promise views and space, this one adds live water, usable infrastructure, and real day-to-day function.

The layout is built for full-time living, guests, and low-friction land management. A covered breezeway links the main home and guest quarters around a fenced courtyard designed for outdoor dining, quiet evenings, and dark-sky nights. Across the valley, a 1,080-square-foot barndominium adds shop space, equipment storage, recreation space, and three air-conditioned guest rooms with a 3-4 bath. That makes the property work for multigenerational use, weekend hosting, or an owner who needs room for ranch equipment without crowding the main house.

Water and power infrastructure are unusually strong for this setting. Rainwater collection totals 29,000 gallons across the improvements, backed by multi-stage filtration. A well drilled in 2016 tested at 35 GPM and is already plumbed for residential use if needed. Solar panels and a wind turbine create meaningful off-grid capability and can reduce operating costs over time. The acreage also carries an agricultural tax exemption through wildlife management, with selective clearing, trail maintenance, and creek enhancements already in place.

The property sits inside a 369-acre game-fenced enclave shared by only four owners and accessed by an electronic gated entrance, giving Upper Turtle Creek Rd a level of privacy that is difficult to replicate this close to Kerrville. School district assignment is Kerrville Isd, with elementary listed as Outside School District, middle listed as Outside School District, and high school listed as Outside School District.
