About the property

A Mediterranean estate atop one of Aledo’s highest hilltops, Fossil Valley Ranch spans 100 private acres with commanding 360-degree views. This distinguished five-bedroom, five-bath residence was thoughtfully designed with gatherings in mind, offering expansive indoor and outdoor living and a resort-caliber patio that includes a full outdoor kitchen, pool, hot tub, fire pit, and covered gathering areas with ceiling fans. A rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, elegance, and panoramic beauty in every direction.

The Estate
Behind the private security gate, a quarter-mile driveway winds toward the main residence. The circular drive at the front entry offers ample parking, complemented by a three-car garage arranged as a game room and a two-car covered carport. The full-size basketball court enhances the estate’s recreational appeal.

Beyond the front garden, the main living space opens to floor-to-ceiling windows framing the pool and surrounding landscape. Generous seating creates an easy flow to the outdoor terrace and encourages connection throughout the home.

The formal dining room comfortably accommodates eight and opens to a professionally appointed chef’s kitchen, centered around a large island with seating for four. The kitchen is fully stocked with small appliances, cookware, utensils, place settings, cutlery, and a selection of teas and coffees. A welcome tray with drinks and snacks ensures guests feel immediately at home. Private chefs may be arranged upon request. A spacious walk-in pantry and an additional secondary pantry provide storage, while the adjacent breakfast nook offers seating for six to eight guests.

The secondary living area includes lounge seating, a dining or game table, television, and a variety of board games. Two elegant half baths, a dedicated office with built-in desk, and a laundry room with washer, dryer, iron, and ironing board provide additional convenience.
Multiple access points lead to covered patios with ceiling fans, a fire pit, and fireplace. The views extend in every direction and remain unrivaled in their scope and beauty. The hot tub and pool are open year-round (however the pool is not heated in the off-season).

The Primary Suite
The primary suite lies behind floor-to-ceiling wood doors, offering complete seclusion. Beyond these doors, a hallway leads to a refined bedroom with a king bed, fireplace, and seating area. The ensuite bath includes a soaking tub, dual vanities, a makeup area with seated lighting, a walk-in shower with private steam room, and a spacious closet with ample storage. From the bath, guests may access a private patio with an outdoor shower.

Additional Bedrooms
A guest suite near the secondary living and game room offers a king bed, sitting area, elegant bath with soaking tub, dual sinks, walk-in shower, and large closet.

Upstairs, 3 additional bedrooms provide flexible sleeping arrangements. One includes two sets of bunk beds with a trundle, sleeping six. Two others offer king beds and seating areas, each with peaceful views of the countryside. A full bath serves this level. A baby monitor and pack-and-play crib are also available.

Fossil Valley Ranch is a singular estate that leaves a lasting impression: expansive, private, and designed to elevate every moment.

Not worth the money. We were extremely disappointed in the stay. My son got glass in his foot walking from the pool inside the house. Found broken glass all inside of the fridge. Dead bugs/ worms all throughout the home. I had to ask for a vacuum so the kids didn’t keep stepping into them. Found molded muffins inside kitchen cabinet. I spent more time than I cared cleaning a home that’s not mine. Home is not well maintained. Such a bummer as it has so much potential. All management had to say is they will report to the cleaning company and owner. Only positive things going for it was the space of the home and property.

We had a wonderful time and stay! Such a beautiful place on beautiful land! The house was perfect for our whole family! Plenty of space, and we enjoyed being able to spend time outside in the hot tub! Highly recommend for large families! Such a great price too!

The home itself is beautiful and has a lot of potential, but unfortunately it felt unkept. The grass and landscaping were overgrown, which took away from the overall appearance of the property. Our kids even found a snake, which I believe may have been due to the tall grass. We also did not have WiFi during our 3-night stay, which made it impossible to use the TVs and fully enjoy some of the amenities. We reached out to the host and were given troubleshooting steps, but the issue was never resolved while we were there. There were also three trash cans outside, two of which were full of trash and had maggots inside them. The carpets had spots where it was torn up. The host was responsive and did help us locate the hot tub remote, so we were able to use it. Overall, the property is pretty and has a lot of potential, but it needs more attention to cleanliness, landscaping, and making sure essentials like WiFi are working before guests arrive. With tho
