Description
Rare 15+/- acre Hays County tract fronting FM 32 - the Devil's Backbone - under a mile from Ranch Road 12 in Wimberley, on the Hill Country's established scenic leisure route. Unincorporated, unzoned, Wimberley ISD, and not subdividable. Four structures. The commercial/event building (approx 2,025 SF, built 2015 with a 2023 addition) most recently housed a distillery tasting room and bar with a retro-futuristic interior designed by a New York design firm - Art Deco lines with vintage-inspired detailing, and one of the Hill Country's most distinctive hospitality spaces. It drew a devoted following on its cocktail program, rotating food trucks, live entertainment and a large shaded patio, with recurring local and regional press coverage. Served by 40+ asphalt parking spaces and rainwater collection. Suited to a distillery, winery, brewery, tasting room, restaurant, bar, wedding and event venue, or live-music concept. The residence (approx 1,800 SF, 2016) offers 2 full baths, 1 half bath and three main-level living areas beneath a timber-frame gable roof with stone columns and chimney, with a wrapping covered porch, outdoor living area and stone fire feature. A separate 1,200 SF metal building serves as one-bedroom, one-bath guest quarters; a 300 SF shed adds storage. Both residences are well maintained and move-in ready amid mature landscaping. Approximately 13 of the 15 acres carry a wildlife management valuation, substantially reducing annual carrying costs; buyer to verify continuation and any rollback exposure under a change of use. Sale is for the real estate and improvements only. The former business and its operating assets are not included in the purchase price; distillery and bar equipment and the established brand may be available separately by arrangement with ownership. List price supported by an independent third-party appraisal. Buyer to independently verify all uses, permits, utilities and square footages.
