The Thirsty Goat Ranch offers 61 +/- AG-exempt acres of classic Texas Hill Country charm with just the right amount of personality. Tucked away off the highly sought-after McKinney Loop on McKinney Creek, this gentleman’s ranch delivers sweeping panoramic views, mature trees, and the kind of peaceful setting people usually say they want but rarely find. Majestic live oaks frame the property, while a scenic pond attracts local wildlife and adds to the relaxed country atmosphere. The acreage is fully perimeter-fenced, offering privacy and space to enjoy the natural surroundings. The 2020-built home features 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and a 3-car garage, along with barns and generous storage. Inside, the open floor plan welcomes abundant natural light, with a dedicated office and a downstairs primary suite complete with a walk-in closet and private bath. Upstairs guest bedrooms offer beautiful Texas Hill Country views that make mornings a little easier. Outdoor amenities include your own pickleball court, a rustic guest space separate from the main house, and RV/boat storage alongside additional barns, a chicken coop, and hay storage for livestock. For hunting enthusiasts, the ranch is already equipped with automatic deer feeders and blinds, plus a seasonal creek and two tanks that support the natural landscape. Conveniently located just 55 miles from both Austin and San Antonio, this property sits in one of the fastest-growing areas in the country—while still offering the privacy, space, and scenery that make Hill Country living so appealing.
