Description: Martin Ranch represents luxury ranch living at its finest, spanning 225± pristine acres with pipe fencing, multiple water wells and tanks, and buried utilities that preserve the sweeping Hill Country views. At the heart of the property sits a stunning Texas-Tuscan style residence, thoughtfully designed with both elegance and entertaining in mind. Ideally located 60± miles from Austin and nestled between Horseshoe Bay and Lake Buchanan, Martin Ranch offers the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility, equally suited as a full-time rural residence or an exceptional weekend retreat.

Improvements: Originally built in 2009 and comprehensively updated within the past year, the 7,466± square-foot main residence blends timeless craftsmanship with modern infrastructure, including new electrical, AV, and HVAC systems.
