Property Description

Block 216, Section 34, 5 Ac AKA Tract G 61. This seller is very motivated to sell.
All sales will go through the title company. Buyer pays all escrow fees, tax certificate, title policy, and deed. Seller pays commission to West Texas Realty and back taxes & ranch fees. The cost to cure the title is the cost to the seller. It offers views of large surrounding mountain ranges. It has good access off Hwy 118 on Legion Road. There are no restrictions however Brewster County is a dark sky county, so lights need to be at a minimum & pointed down. Some astronomers watch stars and even do nighttime photography, showing distance galaxies. There is no survey but we have the GPS numbers and mark the corners. We are not surveyors so you need to get a survey if and when you are planning to build anything permanent. Ranch fees are $210 for 2023 and this primarily takes care of the ranch roads. Anything in Terlingua! Be sure to bring your high-clearance auto. 4-Wheel Drive is not necessary.

There are some wells in this area, but not on this land. There is no aquifer in our area so you could hit water at 10 feet or 1000 ft, or none at all.

Solar & water catchment is what people rely on in these remote areas.

Folks love it for hiking & photography. During deer season hunters like to hunt. There is abundant wildlife & birds. We have seen a lot of quail and even found a horned toad that was white. The color was to blend in with the dirt it was on.

It has not been surveyed, but we have the GPS coordinates for all corners. We are not surveyors and we recommend you get a survey before putting anything permanent on the land. There are several good licensed surveyors in our area. Other than the lights there are no restrictions so you can build when & what you want.

Now about your address here, the town says Alpine that is because the mail is delivered by an Alpine Mail Carrier. So you are not in Alpine, This confuses many folks

Terlingua Ranch is a favorite area for peace & quiet, getting away from the stress of the city.  Dark skies are excellent for star-gazing so bring your cameras & telescopes. Our county is the largest dark sky community in the world. The views from all directions are like a painting on your canvas. There are restrictions on the type of lights you can have & it is a county ordinance.

Terlingua Ranch offers a swimming pool, cabins, RV, and tent camping. There is a neat little cafe called the Bad Rabbit that serves great home-cooked meals. If you are a pilot, there is a dirt strip that you can land on behind the lodge. There is a yearly fee due in March for $210. It takes care of upkeep on the many roads on the ranch.

All sales go through a title company and can take up to 45-60 days to close. All proceeds will be done by a wire transfer to the Abstract Company. You do not need to carry cash with you when you decide on a property you like. All contracts are done in writing on Texas Real Estate forms.

Please call in advance to see this and other properties we have listed.

We look forward to seeing you!
