Description: 3 Creeks Ranch is a extraordinary live-water property in highly sought after Gillespie County, conveniently located minutes to Main Street Fredericksburg. The tastefully restored historic improvements coupled with miles of spring-fed creeks, stunning views, and fertile improved pastureland make this a truly unique offering.
Improvements: The traditional Hill Country German-style Main House, originally built in the 1850s, and recently restored by Daniel Jenschke in 2007, is 5,300sf with 3 bedrooms and 4 baths. The expertly updated home includes a chef's kitchen and two-storied great room with a bar, living and dining area, naturally lit through clerestory windows and a bank of French doors. Luxurious details include an underground wine cellar, sleeping loft above a second living area, water softener and R/O system, timber beams and limestone masonry, a screened porch with built-in grill and wood burning pizza oven, full-size tennis/pickleball court with basketball hoop, and an attached 2-car garage. A guest cottage is directly adjacent to the main home and is 860± sf with one bedroom, one full bath, along with a living room and kitchen. The Primary Barn, also located near the Main House, has a concrete foundation and four (4) additional parking spaces for tractors and ranch vehicles and offers a flex space/bedroom with a full bath, plus a 1,428sf carriage house apartment above the barn with one bedroom and a half bath. The “Petsch House” is a traditional German-style Hill Co.home with modern amenities. Built in 1858, this 3,237sf 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home has a full kitchen, living area, dining, laundry room, and covered front porch. This homesite features a unique limestone carport, a 100-year-old horse barn and enclosed hay barn. The historic 1874 “Kile House” is a 2,767sf stone, German homestead redesigned by local architect Eric Mustard and restored and rebuilt in 2020 by Bill Dunn Construction. There is an additional 60'x40' metal storage barn with concrete foundation on this homesite. The ranch is cross-fenced into multiple pastures, allowing for easy rotational grazing. The cross-fencing and permitter fencing have all been kept in great condition. There are also miles of improved chip-seal roads allowing easy access across the ranch, along with lots of roads accessible by ATV, horse, or trail bike.
Water: Hence the ranch’s namesake, there are 3 spring-fed creeks that flow through the property. Hunters Creek, the strongest of the 3 creeks, bisects the middle of the ranch with 4,375ft of frontage on both sides ensuring total control and privacy of your water. 4 dams/spillways have been constructed along Hunters Creek to further expand the recreational potential of the live water. There are a total of 9 water wells on the ranch, 6 ponds and multiple cattle troughs.
Terrain: The ranch has approximately 235 acres of improved pastureland, with 180 acres currently planted in Coastal and 55 acres in Klein Grass. The place is studded with countless sizable Live Oaks, Post Oaks, and Spanish Oaks, and the creek bottoms are lined with stunning giant Cypress and other native hardwoods. Elevations range from 1500 - 1740ft above sea level, with the high-points offering gorgeous panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.
Wildlife: Native whitetail, turkey, and free-ranging Axis Deer. In the SE corner is a 70+/- acre high-fenced exotic pasture with Red Stag, Black Buck, and Fallow Deer.
Taxes: A portion of the ranch is under Wildlife Exemption, with the remainder being Ag exempt.
