luxury houses with terrace for sale Kerrville, United States

Description: Since 1951, Tecaboca has been owned and operated by the Marianists, a Catholic religious order, serving as both a children’s camp and a spiritual retreat. For the first time in 74 years, this remarkable property along the banks of flowing Johnson Creek is being offered for sale. Live water of this caliber - abundant, pristine, and private - is an exceptionally rare find, particularly on a tract this size. Tecaboca offers unmatched serenity while being under fifteen minutes from Kerrville and an hour from San Antonio, making it both private and accessible. With its rich history, prime location, and incredible natural resources, Tecaboca presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,,, the possibilities are truly limitless. Water: The highlight of this property is without question the spectacular, spring-fed Johnson Creek—one of the 3 legendary streams, along with the North Fork and South Fork, that merge to form the headwaters of the Guadalupe River. Flowing directly through the heart of the land for more than 2,200± feet, it offers private access to some of the most pristine and reliable live water in the Texas Hill Country. A dam along the creek forms a deep, lake-like stretch of water—perfect for swimming, canoeing, or fishing. As the creek spills over the dam in a cascading waterfall, it continues alongside a dramatic limestone bluff, shaping rapids and tranquil pools before widening into another large lake. The property also includes 2 water wells and a commercial-grade filtration and storage system that services all improvements. Improvements: Because this property has been operated as a camp, it includes a variety of structural improvements: Main house, dining hall, chapel, 8 cabins, covered pavilions, woodworking shop, equipment barn, horse barn, waterfront chapel, ropes course, covered shooting range, and numerous storage buildings. These facilities lend themselves to a wide range of potential uses depending on the vision of the next owner, all offering flexible options that would be valuable to almost any buyer, regardless of how they plan to use the property. Vegetation/Terrain: Johnson Creek is framed by towering, centuries-old Cypress trees and accented with massive pecan trees that accent the serene setting. Dozens of stately live oaks are scattered among walnut, cedar elm, cottonwood, and juniper. Well-maintained lawns are along the banks of the creek, while several open fields with rich soils provide for planting, cultivation, or recreation. Directly across Highway 27, is a a ±9-acre box canyon that remains largely undisturbed. Wildlife: The property is alive with wildlife, including whitetail deer, turkey, wild hogs, and dove, with migrating waterfowl throughout the seasons. Bird enthusiasts will appreciate the abundance of native birds, including a variety of songbirds, making the property an inviting haven for birdwatching in addition to traditional hunting and outdoor activities. Johnson Creek itself supports a rich aquatic ecosystem and provides excellent fishing, with bass, catfish, and perch thriving in its clear, spring-fed waters.
