Property Description
Vista Ranch lives up to its name with long panoramic views, abundant wildlife, and an ideal location just 45 minutes from Cedar Park, Texas. As you travel the established ranch roads, the interplay of sun and shadow across the rolling terrain gives depth to the vistas that stretch for miles.
LOCATION: Situated in the northeast quadrant of Burnet County, the ranch lies just west of Watson, Texas, with access off CR 208. Austin – 60 mins — San Antonio – 2 hrs — Dallas 3 hrs.
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT: The ranch offers varied habitat that supports both wildlife and livestock. Select areas have been cleared of cedar, and food plots are in place. The eastern side features rolling grasslands with scattered trees, while the western section is thicker with cedar, providing excellent cover for wildlife and remaining navigable by 4×4.
WILDLIFE: Vista ranch is home to white-tailed deer, feral hogs, turkey, dove, and various varmints and non-game species—offering year-round hunting opportunities.
IMPROVEMENTS: Nestled near the center of the property is a charming farmhouse dating back to the 1920s. It's in fair condition and has been well maintained over the years. The home is approximately 2,200 sq. ft. with four bedrooms and two bathrooms, featuring original hardwood floors and a welcoming, nostalgic feel. Nearby, there's an excellent homesite with near-360-degree views—an ideal spot for a new build, while the original farmhouse could be repurposed as a guest retreat. With large neighboring ranches, rooftops are scarce, lending a peaceful sense of seclusion despite the proximity to Austin.
WATER: A pond in the southeast corner is fed by runoff and holds water well. There are several additional locations with similar topography that could support future water improvements. An underground water distribution system runs throughout the property and is currently functional, fed by a neighboring well.
