About this property
Boulder Creek Ranch - South encompasses 144 +/- acres in the heart of Kimble County, offering live water, dramatic terrain, and a main ranch house set high above the Johnson Fork. Located about 10 miles southeast of Junction and only a mile off Interstate 10, the ranch provides both accessibility and privacy, with the outer rim of San Antonio just over an hour away. Additional acreage adjoining this tract is available for purchase. The property is anchored by more than 2,500 feet of accessible frontage along the Johnson Fork Creek. This stretch of water is recognized for its deep blue color and clarity, reaching depths of 10 feet and spanning more than 100 feet across in places. Limestone and chalk bluffs rise over 200 feet above the creek, creating a dramatic contrast between the bright river valley and the rugged high country above. The water supports year-round recreation, from swimming and kayaking to fishing and simply enjoying shaded areas along the banks. The terrain climbs quickly away from the creek, breaking into canyons, ridges, and rolling uplands that connect into the Blue Mountains. From the higher elevations, long views stretch for miles across the Hill Country, capturing both sunrise and sunset. The native habitat supports strong wildlife populations, with whitetail, axis, and turkey on the ranch. The main home sits atop one of the ranch's most prominent ridgelines, a 3,000 +/- square foot residence with four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms. Warm wood finishes, vaulted ceilings, and an open layout create a welcoming interior. The upstairs bedrooms overlook the great room below, and the wide porch frames views of the Johnson Fork and the valley directly beneath. A detached two-car garage and a two-car carport enclosed on three sides provide covered parking and storage. A 591 +/- square foot river cabin offers additional lodging near the water, with one bedroom, one bathroom, and a covered porch. The cabin serves well as a guest house or as a hunter's cabin for extended stays. Two water wells supply the property, supporting household and ranch use. A network of internal roads extends throughout the property, running to the hilltop residence and providing access to the creek, canyons, and elevated vantage points. Boulder Creek Ranch - South reflects the best of the region's character: clear live water, towering bluffs, and wide-open views across the Hill Country. This 144 +/- acre tract carries the improvements and the live water frontage, and adjoining acreage is available for buyers wanting more room, making it well suited for recreation, hunting, or a long-term residence within easy reach of Junction, San Antonio, and Kerrville.

Location
About the Area
FM 2169 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.
