A sizeable chunk of the Texas Hill Country has hit the market.

Rancho Blanco, a 2,868-acre ranch just outside the city of small city Sonora, has been put up for sale for the first time in nearly a century, Mansion Global first reported.

Last publicly listed 95 years ago, the sprawling property has been in the same family for three generations and has appeal as a livestock-raising operation, a bucolic retreat from society and a hunting property — with abundant native wildlife including whitetail deer, dove and turkey quail.

The listing is held by Ruple Properties with Compass, and seeks $6.35 million.

In addition to its sumptuous grounds full of live oaks, rolling terrain, a wide variety of flora and limestone outcroppings, Rancho Blanco also features a freshly restored historic house.

Known as Casa Piedra, the six-bedroom, three-bathroom, 7,000-square-foot home was built in 1900 and has a wraparound porch, decorative shingles and an upstairs gallery.

The abode recently underwent an extensive renovation, with the owners maintaining the original concrete walls that appear throughout the house — and keeping them intentionally exposed —- while adding various modern amenities.

“The original pouring of this concrete at the turn of the century took 1,600 man hours to complete at $0.50/hr, and 1,100 sacks of hand mixed concrete,” listing agent Garrett Ruple told The Post

There are also all-weather roads providing ample access to the ranch and its variety of livestock-friendly vegetation.

“The ranch was historically used for running a world-renowned Angora goat herd, which would obviously appeal to the livestock rancher. On the other hand, the large historic home, scenic vistas and hunting opportunities make this a great recreational property as well,” said Ruple, adding that it’s been used by the owners for both in recent years.
