About this home
Long Creek Ranch is a premier example of a refined yet authentic Texas Hill Country ranch. Featuring over 1.2 miles of frontage on both sides of Germany Creek—a year-round water source and tributary to the North Paluxy River—this exceptional property offers an ideal balance of natural beauty, recreation, and luxury.
The ranch is perfectly suited for hunting, recreation, running livestock, entertaining large groups, or simply enjoying quiet weekends with family and friends. A beautifully appointed main residence and pool house are centrally located near the ranch headquarters, with additional guest homes and a variety of improvements that make hosting family, friends, or corporate retreats effortless.
Conveniently located just 20 minutes from the growing town of Stephenville, TX; this turnkey ranch, which is set up to be self-sustaining and run off grid if needed, must be seen to be fully appreciated.
Location:
Located in north-central Erath County, Long Creek Ranch is conveniently situated approximately 20 minutes from Stephenville, 1 hour from Fort Worth and 1 hour 30 minutes from Dallas. There are 5 airports within 30 to 40 minutes of the property that can handle larger aircraft.
Road/Frontage Access:
Primary access to the ranch is via County Road 163 along the south boundary, with additional frontage on County Road 132 along the north end.
Land:
An excellent representation of the North Texas Hill Country, the landscape features rolling hills, high vistas, and lush creek bottoms. Erath County lies within the Cross Timbers ecoregion—specifically the West Cross Timbers—characterized by hilly terrain with sandstone and limestone outcroppings, fertile soils, and dense stands of native oak trees. The land is well-suited for grazing, recreation, and wildlife habitat. The elevation on the ranch ranges from approximately 1,291 +/- feet above sea level at the highest point in the northeast quadrant of the ranch, to 1,090 feet above sea level near the banks of Germany creek. The property is surrounded on multiple sides by other large land owners.
Water:
Germany Creek flows west to east through the heart of the property and serves as a signature water feature of the ranch. With approximately 1.2 miles of frontage on both sides, the creek offers deep pools, scenic canopy cover, and a reliable year-round water source for livestock and wildlife.
In addition to the creek, the ranch includes four stock ponds and two scenic lakes near the shop and headquarters. Some of the ponds/lakes have been stocked with a variety of bass, bluegill, and perch. Seven water wells service various improvements and provide supplemental water for livestock across multiple pastures. The ranch is well set up to function totally off grid if ever necessary.
Improvements:
Main Residence
The main residence is a stunning blend of modern design and fine craftsmanship, thoughtfully designed for comfortable country living. Expansive living areas create inviting spaces for entertaining, while cozy nooks with fireplaces and large landscape windows offer peaceful spots to enjoy morning coffee and sweeping views.
A well-appointed chef’s kitchen is ready for any culinary occasion. Natural light fills every room, creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere throughout the day. The home features a geothermal HVAC system and a backup generator capable of powering both the main house and pool house.
Pool House
Adjacent to the main residence, the pool house includes one bedroom, one bathroom, and a comfortable living area for guests. An attached outdoor kitchen overlooks the swimming pool and southern pastures, with long views down to the wooded creek bottoms of Germany Creek—an ideal setting for relaxing and entertaining.
Guest House & Cabin
On the south end of the ranch, a beautifully finished guest home offers three bedrooms, three bathrooms, plus an office/study area. Spacious living areas and a complete kitchen make this home perfect for hosting family and friend
