John Cone

John Cone brings a unique blend of experience, passion, and personal connection to luxury country real estate. Raised on a farm in Austin County, Texas, John developed an early appreciation for the land, rural living, and the deep sense of community that comes with country life. Those formative years created a lasting understanding of the beauty, heritage, and lifestyle that exceptional farm, ranch, and historic properties provide.

After moving to Hunters Creek Village in Houston to raise his family, John later returned to his roots, settling once again on a farm in Round Top, where he continues to embrace the lifestyle, he values most. His firsthand experience living both in the city and the country gives him a distinctive perspective when helping clients transition between the two and find properties that truly fit their vision.

John specializes in luxury farm and ranch properties, historic homes, and beautiful acreage throughout the Texas countryside. His thoughtful approach, strong market knowledge, and appreciation for land stewardship allow him to guide buyers and sellers with confidence, discretion, and personalized service. He is passionate about helping clients discover properties that offer not only investment value, but also a meaningful way of life.

Deeply connected to the Round Top community, John and his husband, Greg Fourticq, are the proud owners of the Red Antler Hotel, a destination that reflects their shared love of hospitality, design, and the charm of country living. Together, they have three daughters—Olivia, Sophia, and Victoria—who remain at the heart of everything they do.
