+- 190.96 acres (per KCAD) in Leona Ranch just north of Brackettville in Kinney County. The property is approximately 15 miles north of Brackettville. It includes a water well with a submersible pump, currently run by a generator and a small 960 sqft rock cabin that needs some work to be livable.

There are elevation changes on the ranch creating high locations with long-range scenic views. A wet weather creek traverses the property from west to east. Off the ranch, large canyons make the terrain rugged and scenic at the same time. Vegetation on the ranch is primarily live oak and cedar with a mixture of Edwards Plateau and South Texas brush. In addition to the abundant deer population found on the ranch, hunters will find Rio Grande turkey, feral hogs, quail, doves, and free-range exotics such as Axis and Aoudads

About the Area
191 Leona Ranch Rd is located in Brackettville, Texas, in Kinney County. Kinney County occupies the rugged southwestern Edwards Plateau, centered on Brackettville, a small ranching community best known as the location of the Alamo Village movie set built for John Wayne's 1960 epic. The county borders Mexico along the Rio Grande and maintains an authentic South Texas borderland character.
Las Moras Creek flows through Brackettville, fed by Las Moras Springs, one of the significant spring systems along the Balcones Escarpment. The terrain is classic Edwards Plateau limestone transitioning to Tamaulipan thornscrub toward the Rio Grande, with dramatic creek canyons cutting through the plateau surface.
