One of the biggest advantages of owning land in Stone Ridge Mountain is the neighborhood agricultural exemption, helping keep property taxes remarkably low for a Hill Country acreage property. Combine that with a tax rate of roughly 1.35%, and the ongoing cost of owning 7.66 acres here is much more manageable than buyers may expect. Located near the back of this gated community, 1440 Stone Ridge Mountain offers a great mix of usable land, mature trees and Hill Country scenery. The property has several large, level areas that could work well for a future homesite, along with an impressive concentration of mature oak trees that gives the property privacy and character. Depending on where you build, there is also good potential to take advantage of the surrounding Hill Country views. The seller has already completed a detailed well analysis indicating access to a high-producing well, taking some of the guesswork out of planning for a future home. Electricity is available, and a septic system would be needed. Stone Ridge Mountain feels private and rural without putting you too far from everyday conveniences. Marble Falls and Johnson City are both an easy drive, with shopping, restaurants, medical care and other services nearby. Dripping Springs and Fredericksburg are also within reach when you want to explore more of the Hill Country. If you're looking for enough acreage to feel private, mature trees instead of an open field, and the benefit of unusually low carrying costs, this property is worth a closer look.
