Fredericksburg, TX 78624 (Gillespie County)
About this property
Set minutes from Fredericksburg’s Main Street and wineries, 5686 Ranch Road 1631 offers 13.25± acres with the kind of equine and livestock improvements buyers rarely find this close to town. Behind a custom electric gate, the property is cross-fenced with tight lock-net and pipe/panel fencing, creating a clean, functional layout for horses or cattle. Three improved grass pastures, a clay-lined stock pond, and an agricultural exemption support both lifestyle and long-term usability. The 2,315± sq ft custom home—built in 2009 by Laughlin Homes & Restoration—has just been fully repainted inside, giving the residence a crisp, move-in-ready feel. The home features 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a spacious kitchen with Thermador appliances, custom cabinetry, concrete countertops, and an island built for gathering. Outdoor living is equally strong with a stone patio, pergola, outdoor fireplace, and outdoor shower—ideal for Hill Country evenings after a day outside. Infrastructure includes a 60x40 modern Mueller metal barn with a custom welded pen system, covered working pens, a rainwater collection system for the wash rack, and a 10x10 enclosed insulated feed/tack room. A separate 1-bedroom casita with full bath connects to a double carport and workshop, offering flexibility for guests, a ranch hand setup, or additional living space. B&B permitted and an additional guest home can be constructed (buyer to verify). This is a true turnkey ranch setup in a prime Fredericksburg corridor.
