    Stunning $4.85 million Hill Country ranch comes with its own lazy river

    A sprawling 72-acre property for sale in Boerne is like a private paradise: The Lazy River Ranch, located 280 miles south of Dallas at 227 Seewald Rd., is up for grabs at the modest price of $4.85 million.

    Don't mind us, we're just daydreaming about lounging by the pool.

    The stunning property boasts extravagant amenities like a fully renovated 1,800-square-foot guest house with a two car garage, a driving range and multi-hole putting green, and an 18-acre fenced goat pasture. But the biggest highlight is (as the property's name implies) its own lazy river.

    The "river" was custom designed by San Antonio contractors Keith Zars Pools and includes features you'd only expect to find at a luxurious resort: It's temperature controlled and fully lit, so guests can enjoy floating or swimming at any time of day, all year-round. In the center of the lazy river, connected by a custom built bridge, is a green space with a sunken patio area, fire pit, and a swim-up bar. A beautiful waterfall across from the swim-up bar adds to the relaxed tranquility of the area.

    The property first hit the market in July 2022 for $7.35 million, but that was before the ranch owners – who wish to remain private – split up the property into separate allotments of 27 and 72 acres, according to Kris Forks of Kuper Sotheby's International Realty, who has the listing. The acreage changes resulted in price reductions to its current $4.85 million price, as of April 3.

    Other extravagant features that have people talking include:

    • A 5,000-square-foot renovated main house with Viking appliances
    • Custom glass sunroom with sliding accordion doors
    • Covered grilling gazebo area
    • Keith Zars Pools custom built Junior Olympic pool
    • A "rock beach" leading to the lazy river
    • 1,400-square-foot, one bedroom one bathroom pool house equipped with a full kitchen, laundry room, and custom cabinetry
    • Large garage building with extra storage rooms and a second story potential guest suite
    • 400-square-foot custom-built "game room"
    • A custom built shooting range with 30-, 50-, and 100-yard shooting decks
    • A barn with concrete floors for hosting ATVs, a Polaris Ranger, or other "toys"
    • A combination sport court
    • Additional 44-acre pasture for livestock with more barns and storage buildings
    Ostentatious property characteristics aside, there's one more thing that makes the Lazy River Ranch so valuable that people might not have noticed it based on the photos.
    "What I actually love about the property is it's seven miles from Main Street in Boerne," Forks says. "So it has [the] proximity to town, yet it's completely private."

    The property earned a little social media fame after a spotlight on the Facebook page of Zillow Gone Wild which features over-the-top homes. Texas social media users were quick to help out-of-towners with their pronunciation of the ranch's address.

    "Stopping in to inform that that town in pronounced 'bur-knee' because #texas in case anyone was wondering," said one Facebook commenter.

    More information about the property can be found on lazyriverranch.info.

    A sprawling, 13-acre waterfront estate about two hours south of Dallas is hitting the auction block. Bidding on the Oxbow Overlook estate, just outside the Central Texas town of Belton, is scheduled to start February 13 on the Sotheby’s Concierge Auctions website.

    The sale process will conclude February 28 when the estate is featured at ModaMiami, a luxury event hosted by South Florida’s Biltmore Miami-Coral Gables.

    The property, at 8536 Armstrong Rd., is co-listed at $5.95 million by Debbie Stevenson of Kuper Sotheby’s International Realty. Bidding will start at $2 million to $2.5 million.

    “This incomparable offering perfectly captures the essence of refined Hill Country living,” Stevenson says. “From its serene creekside setting and acres of privacy to its remarkable architectural details, Oxbow Overlook delivers a level of craftsmanship and lifestyle that is rarely available.”

    Built in 2001 of native limestone and stone, the French Provincial-inspired main house boasts a 24-foot entry wall made of iron and glass, and a grand foyer crowned by a 31-foot copper dome ceiling. The ceiling hovers above an oak staircase with copper accents.

    Other highlights of Oxbow Overlook’s nearly 7,000-square-foot main house include:

    • Six bedrooms
    • Five full bathrooms and two half-bathrooms
    • Seven fireplaces
    • Three laundry rooms
    • Wet bar
    • Eat-in kitchen
    • Elevator access to second story
    • Home office
    • Game room
    • Exercise pool with swim jets and spa
    • Outdoor kitchen
    • Covered and open patios
    • Coffered and beamed ceilings
    • Crown molding
    • Indoor and outdoor fireplaces
    • Generac backup generator

    The property includes a separate 3,118-square-foot carriage house.

    Oxbow Overlook is close to Belton Lake, Stillhouse Hollow Lake, Salado, and Temple.

    “Designed to embrace its natural surroundings, creekside walls, and outdoor living spaces conform to the bluff’s natural curve, offering spectacular views across the property and showcasing thoughtful conveniences at every turn,” Sotheby’s Concierge Auctions says.
