Property Description

Starnes Ranch | 2096 Derby Ct. | San Marcos, TX | 52 Acres Discover the beauty, privacy, and versatility of Starnes Ranch, a remarkable 52-acre retreat nestled in the heart of the Texas Hill Country just outside San Marcos. Offering a rare combination of residential comfort, recreational opportunities, and agricultural potential, this property is ideal for those seeking a peaceful country lifestyle without sacrificing proximity to town. The ranch features a main residence and separate guest house, providing ample space for family, visitors, or multigenerational living. Several outbuildings offer additional functionality, while a fully fenced garden area with raised beds and an established irrigation system creates the perfect setting for growing fresh produce and embracing a self-sufficient lifestyle. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the property's private shooting range, permitted hunting opportunities, and abundant natural surroundings. Two wet-weather creeks, Sink Creek and Little Sink Creek, meander through the ranch, adding character and natural beauty to the landscape. Currently benefiting from a wildlife management agricultural exemption, the property also allows farming and agricultural activities. Starnes Ranch is subject to an existing conservation easement, helping preserve its natural character, while an additional 1.85-acre pocket of unrestricted land presents unique possibilities for future use. Located outside San Marcos city limits and de-annexed from the city's extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ), the ranch offers a distinctive opportunity to enjoy country living with added independence. Whether you envision a private family compound, recreational hunting retreat, working homestead, or a legacy property to enjoy for generations, Starnes Ranch offers an exceptional opportunity to own a substantial piece of Central Texas countryside.
