About This Home
Welcome to Hye Farms, where nature’s beauty meets boundless potential. Nestled in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, this exceptional 54-acre property is more than land—it’s an opportunity to bring dreams to life. Whether your vision is a serene private estate, a boutique winery, or a creative blend of both, this rare slice of paradise invites you to imagine without limits. Set against the backdrop of the renowned 290 Wine Trail, Hye Farms offers a canvas for visionary investors and lifestyle seekers alike. Picture vineyards stretching across rolling hills, luxury accommodations nestled in nature, and tasting rooms alive with laughter and shared experiences. Here, the possibilities flow as freely as the wine. Hye Farms boasts over 1,063 linear feet of highway frontage Located along the vibrant 290 Wine Trail, Hye Farms boasts over 1,063 linear feet of highway frontage—providing unmatched visibility and access. This prime positioning ensures a steady stream of visitors, drawn by the Hill Country’s renowned wineries, charming towns, and scenic beauty. This central location offers the perfect balance—close enough for city convenience, yet distant enough to offer a true escape into tranquility. With 54 acres of versatile land, Hye Farms offers limitless possibilities for investors and entrepreneurs: Winery & Tasting Room: Leverage high tourist traffic from the 290 Wine Trail. Luxury Estate Development: Create bespoke residences with panoramic views. Mixed-Use Ventures: Combine commercial and residential spaces for a holistic experience. Zoned for residential, commercial, or mixed-use development.
With 53.74 acres and strong visibility along the Hill Country wine corridor, 9695 W US 290 Hwy stands out for something increasingly hard to find in Blanco County: scale, frontage, and a livable residence already in place. In Hye, this Hye, TX 78635 property combines a 2006-built home with the kind of land position that puts you directly on W US 290 Hwy, in the middle of one of the most recognized stretches of the 290 Wine Trail.
The home itself is a 2 bed, 2 bath residence with 1,872 square feet, a fireplace, and a 4-car garage. At $5.00M, the pricing works out to $2,668 per square foot, though the real value equation here is the 53.74-acre tract and the flexibility that comes with it. The current setup fits buyers who want immediate use while planning a longer-term hold, private estate strategy, or a property with room to expand. Large acreage on this section of US 290 is what gives 9695 W US 290 Hwy a different profile than a typical rural residential listing.
Living here means direct access to the Hye and Johnson City corridor, with Fredericksburg also within an easy drive west on US 290. Expect roughly 15 minutes to Johnson City and about 25 minutes to Fredericksburg, depending on traffic and destination. That puts wine country staples, local tasting rooms, and day-to-day services all within reach while still preserving the space and privacy that draw buyers to Hye in the first place. The location also benefits from proximity to the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park and the broader 290 Wine Trail, two named destinations that continue to shape traffic, tourism, and long-term attention along this route.
For schools, the property is served by Johnson City ISD, with Lyndon B Johnson Elementary, Lyndon B Johnson Middle, and Lyndon B Johnson High School. That school alignment matters for buyers looking beyond land value alone and thinking about full-time living, future use, or family planning. In a market where frontage, acreage, and location rarely line up this cleanly, 9695 W US 290 Hwy offers a property that works today as a private Hill Country base and still leaves room for the next chapter of value on one of Central Texas’s most watched corridors.
