Improvements include 3 bedroom, 2 bath home. The home is 5 years old and has a wraparound porch, stone fireplace, and many custom features. There are several barns and outbuildings and a great set of working pens. There is even an historic iron bridge being utilized on the ranch.
The river bottom is an arrowhead hunters paradise due to the many campsites along the river. Excellent hunting and fishing. There aren't many Central Texas ranches with this combination of productivity, character, variety, and beauty.
