About this property
D Bar D Ranch | Burnet County | 93+/- Acres Live water in Central Texas is a finite, appreciating resource - and the D Bar D has over 2,700 linear feet of both sides of a clear, year-round flowing creek running through the heart of the property. The creek meanders over a limestone floor, drops over a natural waterfall, and runs beneath a dense canopy of post oaks, Spanish oaks, live oaks, elms, and pecans. A confirmed dinosaur footprint is pressed permanently into the limestone bed. Over 4,150 feet of paved South Ranch Road 1174 frontage provides clean, all-weather access. The ranch offers exceptional diversity across its 93 acres with fertile coastal fields capable of serious hay production, elevated limestone ridgelines with sweeping Hill Country views, legacy pecan groves, and rich creek bottoms. The 2BR/1.5BA stone house features hardwood floors, wood-burning stove, granite counters, and covered porches front and back with direct creek views. A classic red barn on slab sits nearby. The property runs on a private well and carries an ag exemption. One thing to note is that it is currently operating as a proven short-term rental, the property sits 35 minutes from Cedar Park, 11 miles from Liberty Hill, and 6 miles from Bertram..all amid one of the fastest-growing commercial corridors in the Austin area.
