About This Home
Prime Location! This 31.72+/- acre ranch is an exceptional undeveloped property situated in one of the fastest-growing areas in Texas. With approximately 1,155 feet of road frontage along US Hwy 281 and daily traffic counts exceeding 15,000 vehicles, it offers excellent visibility and great potential for future development. The land boasts breathtaking hill country views, and its highest potential use could be for commercial development, an opportunity the Johnson City area could greatly benefit from. The property is partially fenced and currently holds an ag exemption. PEC electric service is available along the highway, and there is an existing water well on-site. Ideally located between Johnson City and Blanco, just about an hour from both Austin and San Antonio.
The biggest story at TBD N US 281 is scale and frontage: 31.72 acres in Blanco County with about 1,155 feet along one of the main north-south corridors in the Texas Hill Country. At TBD N US 281 in Johnson City, TX 78636, the land is priced at $3.11 million and sits between Johnson City and Blanco with the kind of highway exposure that is hard to replicate once a corridor starts filling in.
This is a Commercial Sale - Ranch, not a finished residential property, so there are no listed bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, or year built. That matters because the value here is in the land itself, the visibility, and the range of future uses an owner may study. Daily traffic counts above 15,000 vehicles along US Hwy 281 add a clear commercial signal. For buyers tracking growth patterns west of Austin, that visibility can shape everything from branding and access to resale value and tenant interest.
The setting also gives this tract a strong Hill Country identity. The site offers wide views, partial fencing, an existing ag exemption, PEC electric service along the highway, and a water well on site. Those are practical points, not filler. Utility access and existing land status affect holding costs, planning, and development timing. A 31.72 acre tract with this much road frontage can support long-range thinking in a way smaller infill parcels cannot.
Location is a major part of the value equation. Johnson City and Blanco anchor this stretch of US 281, and both communities continue to benefit from buyers, businesses, and investors looking beyond Austin’s tighter core. From here, Austin is roughly an hour away and San Antonio is about the same, putting the property within reach of two major metro economies while still operating in a part of Blanco County that reads as open land, not overbuilt suburbia. That balance is a real advantage for a ranch-commercial tract.
Schools are not listed for this property, and that fits the asset type. What is listed is time on market at 370 days, which tells serious buyers they have a chance to evaluate the site carefully rather than chase a rushed deal. For an owner focused on highway presence, land banking, or future commercial direction between Johnson City and Blanco, TBD N US 281 stands out as a large-format tract with infrastructure, visibility, and long-term upside in a corridor that keeps gaining attention.
