The Goldsmith Bulverde Ranch offers a unique opportunity to purchase one of the largest contiguous tracts in the rapidly developing Spring Branch-Bulverde area, only 25-miles North of Downtown San Antonio. Entitlements include a TCEQ Wastewater Permit for up to 750 homes on the southern 300 acres, leaving over 500 acres of more development potential. Canyon Lake Water Service Company has agreed to provide water for 1200 connections with capacity for more. The ranch is also offered as two separate parcels consisting of the southern 300 ($35,000 per acre) and the northern 502 ($12,500) acres. The topography of the property is generally gentle with approximately 70% of the ranch having less than a 10% elevation grade. The remaining 30% of the ranch consists of graduated high points offering beautiful Hill Country views.The number of hardwoods; especially the massive Live oaks, give this Hill Country ranch a distinguished character. The old homestead is a wonderful focal point with a turn-of-the-century rock home, old barns and working pens.This ranch is ready to be developed or simply held as an investment and enjoyed. With the current entitlements and explosive growth in and around Bulverde this property is also ideal for a Conservation Easement.Water:Ranch water for current uses is provided by a water well at the Homestead and a couple of stock tanks. There is windmill water well that is located in the northern half of the ranch; however it is not operational. Historically, water for the homestead was provided from a spring/springhouse located near the main house. There is water in the springhouse at present.From a development perspective there is a Canyon Lake Water Service Company (CLWSC) water service agreement ready to be executed. In addition, 4 groundwater test wells have been bored into the Trinity Aquifer to potentially be used by CLWSC.Land:The ranch has a healthy mix of woodlands and pasture providing both quality wildlife habitat and plenty of grazing capacity. With over 280 feet of relief, from 1140 ft. - 1420 ft., the ranch offers great vistas and privacy at the same time serving to enhance its value from a development perspective.Wildlife:The ranch is home to White-tailed deer, Dove, Turkey, Quail, Songbirds and other Non-Game species.Improvements:Both the turn-of-the-century rock home and caretaker's cabin are in need of restoration. The original rock structure and related outbuildings will either make a fantastic ranch headquarters or possibly be the center of a common use area for a future development. All barns and pens also need much work.
