Steeped in Texas history and thoughtfully reimagined for modern ranch living, Saving Grace Ranch is a truly rare legacy property spanning just under 89 acres in the heart of the Hill Country. At its center stands a remarkable 5100 square foot residence, where an original 1867 stone home has been masterfully encased and expanded – preserving its authentic soul while seamlessly integrating refined, contemporary comforts. Historic character is showcased throughout, from the original pegged and numbered cedar beams to the hand-cut stone walls and architectural cutouts, each telling a story of craftsmanship that cannot be replicated today. Designed with the equestrian in mind, Saving Grace Ranch is exceptionally well appointed for horses and livestock. A Morton three-stall horse barn with wash rack, a 30’ x 35’ metal hay barn, and fenced grazing pastures provide both functionality and flexibility for serious horse owners or those seeking a premier country lifestyle.
Private, scenic, and rich in heritage, Saving Grace Ranch offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Texas history – beautifully preserved, impeccably improved, and ready to be enjoyed for generations to come.
