About this home
The Don Strange Ranch offers a unique opportunity to acquire a historic piece of the Texas Hill Country with two homes and established, profitable event/venue facilities. The property is 15.17 acres and located just 9 miles from downtown Boerne, 39 miles from downtown San Antonio, and 35 miles from Fredericksburg. Offering paved road access off the Waring Welfare Road with two entrances, the gently rolling topography consists of open fields, mature oak and pecan trees, as well as seasonal creek. A truly picturesque locale, this acreage also contains established herds of axis, white tail and turkey for the outdoor enthusiasts. The historic "Zinc House" was built in 1868 and is approx. 2,500 square feet with 2 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The "Zinc House" overlooks Zinc Creek (which flows through the property), a half-acre lake, plus majestic oak and pecan trees. There is ample room for casitas or glamour camping to be built to create a Bed and Breakfast or Short-Term Rental Community. The Headquarters parcel has the Headquarters Pavilion which is approx. 5,000 square feet with stage for live music, and area for industrial kitchen. The spring-fed Zinc Creek flows through the property offering seasonal live water views and ends with a half-acre lake. There are separate septic systems for the home and event pavilions and well servicing this section of the ranch. The history of the property dates to the mid-1800s when German Prince Carl of Solms-Braunfels came over to establish a presence on Texas land. Developed by Nicolaus Zink, a Bavarian-born civil engineer, in 1868, this ranch is an important piece of Texas history. Zink was a crucial part of the Germans success in the Hill Country by respecting Comanche territory and successfully navigating unrest, disease, and financial difficulties. He eventually became responsible for about half of the German immigrants in the Hill Country. Following the initial development of this ranch by Zink, Don Strange and his family further developed and beautifully maintained this piece of history beginning in 1952. It has since earned an exceptional reputation statewide for providing impeccable service, hosting fabulous events, concerts and providing world-class entertainment. From small, private events to large gatherings welcoming thousands, this fantastic venue is great for celebrating weddings,corporate events and sports events....
