About This Home

Spanning 572 highly improved acres and situated among thousands of acres development protected properties, the secluded 5 Seven 2 Ranch enjoys the privacy afforded by only having two large-acreage neighbors. Located near Henly between Dripping Springs and Johnson City in Blanco County, the Ranch is less than 24 miles from Bee Cave or 38 miles from Downtown Austin. With frontage on Ranch Road 2766 (Robinson Road, which feeds into Fitzhugh Road in West Austin and 9 miles East to Johnson City) and less than a quarter mile from the entrance to Pedernales Falls State Park, modern conveniences are even closer only 15 minutes to the heart of Dripping Springs. The 5 Seven 2 Ranch features dramatic 360 degree horizon views, +2,500 feet of accessible Pedernales Riverfront, tremendous elevation changes of more than 340 feet and highly improved interior roads. Perimeter fenced and cross fenced into three pastures, the Ranch features 2 wells (powered + solar) and 3 tanks supporting livestock and game. Additionally, a modest foreman’s house is in place for a full-time ranch manager to live on premises. Two springs percolate from rock formations found on the Ranch and are popular places to find Native American artifacts dating back thousands of years including arrow heads and working tools. Mature Cypress trees line the river while live oaks, post oaks, sycamore, and other native trees dot the pastures. The Ranch has undergone a multi-year strategic restoration to bring back native grasses, tend to majestic oak and pecan trees, and attract wildlife through the clearing of mesquite, cedar and other undesirable plant species. The Ranch is home to registered Texas Longhorns and a breeding population of Scimitar Horned Oryx. Additionally, many free-range game call the Ranch home due to low hunting pressure including deer species such as trophy sized white tail, axis, and sika while other game include bobcat, fox, aoudad sheep, golden and bald eagles, turkey, duck and dove.
