About this property
86 ± Acres | Rochelle, Texas | San Saba County Set in the rolling country of San Saba County, this 86-acre ranch offers a rare combination of productive bottomland, elevated views, and turnkey improvements within easy reach of major Texas markets. The property lies approximately two hours from Austin, thirty minutes from Brownwood, and a short drive from San Saba, providing genuine seclusion without sacrificing accessibility. A gated entrance leads down the ranch road to the headquarters, a 4-bedroom, 2-bath home with a substantial addition that functions as a second living area. Well suited for a primary or secondary residence, weekend retreat, or hunting headquarters. Supporting improvements include two barns and a producing water well, providing the infrastructure to operate immediately upon closing. The lower portion of the ranch is defined by mature hardwoods, deep shade, and consistently strong native forage…the kind of country that holds wildlife and supports livestock with minimal supplementation. Two ponds anchor the property. The larger is aerated and stocked with a healthy population of mature catfish, offering excellent recreational fishing year-round. Wildlife is varied and abundant. Whitetail and Rio Grande turkey are typically present with axis deer documented on the property as well. Dove and duck both make seasonal appearances, and feral hogs round out a diverse mix of native wildlife. From the bottoms, the terrain rises into sandstone hills that crest to reveal sweeping 360-degree views across the surrounding ranch country. The elevation change adds meaningful diversity to the property, creating distinct hunting, grazing, and recreational zones across a relatively compact footprint. Minerals: See Broker.
