Property Description
Welcome to Iron Rapids Ranch, an extraordinary +/-43-acre live-water retreat nestled along one of the most coveted stretches of the Guadalupe River in the Texas Hill Country. Located at 214 Marquardt Road just 11 miles from downtown Boerne, this remarkable property offers a rare combination of premier Guadalupe River frontage, fertile and productive land, exceptional improvements, and the kind of privacy and serenity that has become increasingly difficult to find. Named for the gentle limestone rapids that flow beneath a canopy of towering cypress trees, Iron Rapids Ranch is more than a place to own-it's a place to experience. Here, mornings begin with coffee on the porch as mist rises off the river, afternoons are spent kayaking, fishing, or swimming beneath centuries-old cypress trees, and evenings end gathered around the firepit while the sounds of rushing water echo through the valley. It's the kind of property where families establish traditions, children spend summers outdoors, and memories are measured by seasons spent along the Guadalupe. The custom-built residence, completed in 2019, encompasses approximately 2,539 square feet and was thoughtfully designed to maximize natural light and showcase the surrounding landscape. Expansive windows frame beautiful Hill Country views, while the open-concept floor plan creates an ideal setting for entertaining and everyday living alike. The home offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and an attached three-car garage, blending timeless Hill Country style with modern functionality. Warm finishes and inviting gathering spaces provide a comfortable elegance that feels equally suited for weekend retreats or full-time residence. Additional improvements enhance both functionality and self-sufficiency throughout the ranch. A workshop and carport originally designed for woodworking and equipment storage provide excellent utility, while an implement shed sits conveniently near the orchard. Full RV hookups allow guests to comfortably enjoy extended stays. High-fenced orchard and garden areas are supported by extensive drip irrigation systems, creating outstanding opportunities for gardening, orchards, greenhouses, poultry, beekeeping, and a sustainable Hill Country lifestyle. A dependable private water well services the improvements and contributes to the property's long-term usability. The landscape itself is both beautiful and productive. Fertile sandy loam soils support improved coastal fields, established orchard areas, and gardens, while mature hardwoods and native vegetation provide shade, privacy, and excellent wildlife habitat. The entire property is high fenced, offering flexibility for livestock, agricultural pursuits, equestrian interests, or the establishment of a managed exotic game program. The crown jewel of Iron Rapids Ranch is undoubtedly its spectacular Guadalupe River frontage. Offering approximately 800+/- feet of private access, this stretch of the river is truly exceptional. Massive cypress trees line the limestone banks, creating a setting that feels timeless and almost untouched. Natural rapids cascade over limestone shelves while deeper pools invite swimming, floating, and fishing throughout the year. Whether casting a line beneath overhanging branches, launching a kayak into the cool waters, or simply relaxing beneath the shade of the riverbank, the Guadalupe becomes an integral part of daily life here. Wildlife thrives throughout the property. Whitetail deer move through the fields and hardwoods during the early mornings and evenings, while turkey, dove, and countless native bird species live on the ranch. The combination of live water, fertile soils, mature trees, and protected habitat creates an environment rich with both recreational opportunities and natural beauty.
