Property Description
Clearspring River Ranch is a rare 525± acre live water ranch in Central Texas, approximately 37 minutes from Austin, with approximately 2.4 miles—more than 12,600 feet—of private San Marcos River frontage. The spring-fed San Marcos River forms the ranch's northern boundary, offering clear flowing water, sandy beaches, fishing, swimming, kayaking and exceptional private recreational access. Approaching the river, the ranch features improved pastures, mature Live Oaks, hundreds of native Pecan trees, abundant wildlife and a productive cattle operation. The ranch sits atop the Carrizo-Wilcox Aquifer, one of Texas' nine major aquifers and one of the state's most extensive groundwater systems. Stretching from the Louisiana border to the Mexican border, the aquifer underlies portions of 66 Texas counties and encompasses approximately 36,700 square miles of outcrop and subsurface area. Together, the spring-fed San Marcos River and underlying Carrizo-Wilcox Aquifer create an extraordinary water setting for a Central Texas ranch. Improvements include a 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath ranch residence, private hunting cabin, equipment barn, working cattle pens, cross-fencing and a gated entrance. The property is currently under an agricultural exemption. Located near Luling in Gonzales County with convenient access to Austin, San Marcos, Lockhart and San Antonio, Clearspring offers an extraordinary combination of scale, live water, recreation, agriculture and accessibility that is increasingly difficult to find in Central Texas.
