Directly across from Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, 5862 Ranch Road 965 puts 36 acres of Hill Country land and a 4,000 square foot custom residence in one of the most recognizable settings in Llano County. In Llano, TX 78643, this Farm - Single Family Residence is priced at $4.00M, or $999 per square foot, and the setting is what separates it from typical ranch listings.

Life here is defined by space, views, and immediate access to the landscape people drive across Texas to see. The house was built in 2020, with 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 1 half bath, and 2 fireplaces laid out for both daily living and long weekends with guests. Two ensuite bedrooms are downstairs, and an upstairs guest suite adds privacy. The scale is manageable for a primary residence and substantial enough for a second-home retreat. The screened porch looks out toward a strong future pool site and wide Hill Country views.

The land is a major part of the value. Keener Branch Creek runs through the property, and a lined tank with a fishing dock adds another usable water feature. Open pasture in the front and mature hardwoods deeper into the acreage give the ranch flexibility for recreation, livestock, or a more conservation-focused hold. There is an agricultural valuation in place, which matters for long-term carrying costs. Irrigation lines in the front pasture also create options for a vineyard, orchard, or expanded agricultural use.
