Welcome to the Rocking V Ranch, a remarkable 66/- acre ag-exempt and unrestricted Hill Country retreat ideally situated along the highly sought-after Ranch Road 1323 just outside Johnson City. Defined by its mature live oaks, gently rolling pastureland, abundant wildlife, and thoughtfully designed improvements, this exceptional gentleman’s ranch offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the Texas Hill Country without sacrificing comfort or convenience.

A private gated entrance leads down a winding drive through picturesque pastureland, setting the tone for the peaceful atmosphere that defines the property. Majestic live oak groves, native grasses, seasonal wildflowers, and gently rolling terrain create a landscape that feels both expansive and inviting. A scenic pond, rock-bottom creek features, and abundant wildlife—including whitetail deer—further enhance the property's natural appeal, making it an ideal setting for recreation, relaxation, and enjoying the outdoors.

At the heart of the ranch sits a beautifully maintained 2,544+/- square foot main residence filled with warmth, character, and natural light. The home offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and inviting living spaces that seamlessly connect to the surrounding landscape. A separate wing provides additional flexibility and could easily serve as a private guest suite, home office, or mother-in-law quarters.

Complementing the main residence is a charming guest cottage featuring its own bedroom, bathroom, living area, kitchenette, covered porch, and fireplace—creating a welcoming retreat for family and friends. A converted barn currently serves as a game room and entertainment space complete with a full bathroom, offering endless possibilities as a bunkhouse, office, studio, or additional guest accommodations.

The ranch is equally functional and enjoyable, featuring an equipment barn and workshop, pipe cattle pens, run-in shed, strong water well infrastructure, and perimeter fencing with four cross-fenced pastures. An 8-foot game fence surrounds the homesite, helping protect the beautifully maintained grounds and landscaping.

One of the most special aspects of the Rocking V Ranch is the care and stewardship it has received over the years. Historic homestead remnants and an original rock wall offer a glimpse into the property's rich past, preserving a connection to the generations who once called this land home while adding authenticity and character rarely found in today's market.

Located just minutes from the Pedernales River and less than an hour from both Austin and San Antonio, the Rocking V Ranch is perfectly suited as a full-time residence, family compound, or weekend retreat. Combining natural beauty, recreational opportunities, privacy, and versatile improvements, this turnkey Hill Country ranch offers an exceptional opportunity to experience the lifestyle that makes this region one of Texas' most treasured destinations.
