The outdoor area features a BBQ, a pavilion overlooking the pond, and a fire pit ring. The pond supports bass and catfish for fishing, and the hardwood cover attracts local wildlife. Conveniently located in the Texas Hill Country near Austin, San Antonio, Dripping Springs, Blanco, Johnson City, and Fredericksburg, this estate is ideal for family gatherings, entertaining, and enjoying the Hill Country.

A 25-acre tract inside gated Johnson City is the defining advantage at 3149 Byrd Ranch Rd, where a 4,900 square foot main residence and guest accommodations create a scale that is difficult to replicate in Blanco County at $327 per square foot. In Johnson City ISD, with Lyndon B Johnson Elementary, Middle, and High School serving the property, this is a Hill Country holding that combines land, privacy, and a residential program large enough for multigenerational use or frequent entertaining.

Built in 2008, the property is configured as a farm-style single family residence with five bedrooms, three full baths, one half bath, two fireplaces, and a 2-car garage. The land has been cedar-cleared and high-fenced, with a slope that opens northern views and preserves a strong hardwood mix led by live oak and Spanish oak. Access begins with a bridge crossing Miller Creek, which gives the approach real separation from the surrounding area. The pond is lined and irrigated, holds water year-round, and supports bass and catfish, which matters because usable water features on private acreage carry both recreational and long-term land value. A water well already services the property, and the site is set up to support horses, cattle, wildlife, and exotics.

The house layout is geared toward gathering without giving up privacy. The main house centers on an open kitchen, dining area, and great room with a fireplace, while the guest house, linked by a covered walkway, adds four bedrooms, two baths, and a shared living area. That split is practical. It allows owners to host extended family or guests without forcing everyone into a single structure. A cigar and cordial room with antique windows and ship ports adds character, while upper-level flex space for a game area, office, or additional bedroom broadens the use case. Porches, patios, sitting areas, a pavilion overlooking the pond, a BBQ area, and a fire pit extend the property beyond the walls of the home.

For buyers evaluating Hill Country acreage, the appeal here is not abstraction. It is 25 fenced acres, established water, year-round pond utility, mature hardwood cover, a gated setting in Johnson City, and enough built space to use the property in several ways from day one. That combination gives 3149 Byrd Ranch Rd durable relevance as both a private retreat and a long-term land-backed asset.
