Location
About the Area
428 Lester Lane is located in Junction, Texas, in Kimble County. Kimble County is deep Hill Country, sparse, rugged, and authentically Texan. Junction, the county seat, sits at the confluence of the North and South Llano Rivers, making it a beloved destination for spring-fed river recreation. The county sees far less development pressure than counties closer to Austin and San Antonio, preserving large contiguous ranch tracts.
The North Llano and South Llano Rivers converge at Junction, creating one of the most scenic river confluences in the Hill Country. The terrain is rugged limestone and granite, with cedar and live oak covering rocky hillsides that rise sharply above the river valleys. South Llano River State Park protects significant wildlife habitat including one of Texas's largest wild turkey roosts.
Junction had an estimated population of 2,439 as of 2023. The 76849 zip code has a median household income of $59,311, a median home value of $162,700, and a median age of 47.2. The average household size is 2.35 people.
Ranching, hunting leases, river recreation tourism, and a modest retail sector in Junction form the Kimble County economy. The county is prized by buyers seeking large contiguous ranch tracts with river frontage at prices still below the more developed Hill Country counties to the east.
