This ranch combines the beauty of South Texas with hills and views that are very unique to this part of the county. There are seven tanks total on the ranch. One of them is lined and 12 feet deep, another is 2.5 acres and stocked with big largemouth bass and another is roughly 3 acres and serves as a reservoir for water pumped from the Hondo Creek and one irrigation well. In addition to these there are three other tanks serving as ideal watering holes for the abundant wildlife or livestock. There is also one tank that was dug some time back, but did not hold water. If filled, it is in a position that could be dug out to 15+ acres and approximately 20ft. deep. In addition to all of the tanks on the property, there is approximately 1 mile of Hondo Creek running through the ranch. This property possesses both sides of the creek and the ability to pump 200 acre feet of water per year out of it for domestic and livestock use. There is a dam on the creek which backs water up for approximately ¾ of a mile. The average depth in this area is 10 feet. To truly experience the beauty of this you need to hop in a canoe and take a trip with a fishing pole in one hand and a camera in the other. On the downstream side of the dam you will find several small waterfalls and running rapids which are just beautiful. Each tank on the property including the empty one has water piped to it. There is a 6-8 inch line running water throughout the ranch. There are three 8” wells, four 5 ½” wells, and two 4” wells. The 8” and 5 1/2” wells are in the Carrizo/Wilcox. The terrain is varied with flat pastures covered with huge pecan and oak trees to rolling hills with great brush. There are hilltops in which you can see panoramic views of the ranch and distant views for miles. The current owner owns 100% of the minerals and will be conveying 50% of them. In addition, the owner will convey all of the Executive Rights and 50% of the bonuses made on them. The perimeter is completely low fenced. All of the perimeter and cross fencing appears to be in good to very good condition. The owner has done some burning on the property to improve the quail habitat. It is already an ideal habitat for the birds, but due to the weather trends South Texas has been experiencing, the owner claims the quail hunting to be spotty. This ranch has only been hunted by friends and family with only 8 point or better bucks being taken. There have been 2 doe harvested for every buck. All of the feeders, blinds (except one) and 5 tower pivot on this ranch will convey with the sale. This ranch is being offered at $5,500 per acre for a total price of $6,957,500. Ranches of this caliber are few and far between. The quality and pride of ownership is evident throughout.
