The terrain is a mix of sandy loam like the King & Kennedy Ranches have or the black and clay dirt you might find near Pleasanton providing a variety of foliage for the wild game. Scattered across the ranch you will see historic Oaks, shady Pecans, several Cotton Woods, Mesquite Palms and much more. The abundance of Whitetail Deer, Rio Grande Turkeys, Wild hogs, Javalinas, Quail, Dove, Sandhill Cranes, and even the occasional Alligator coming off the Blanco Creek frontage, the hunting capabilities are endless.
On the property there are seven improved fenced off pastures for hay production or cattle rotation, not to mention the four main sections of the ranch separated by cross fencing all of which is new and built within the last year.
Three water wells exist and are active. Two of these are solar powered with meters close by, and one supplies the house and a couple of water troughs on the hill for cattle. There are four main tanks that hold water steadily, with several other smaller tanks scattered that will catch and hold water as well.
Main ranch house sits on one of the most scenic hills in Refugio county overlooking the Dog Branch Creek only to silhouette gorgeous sunsets behind it. The home itself has four bedrooms three bathrooms, two living area, kitchen and a front porch perfect for gazing out over the front pasture. The fully fenced yard is great to keep the pets and kids in and the cows out. Near the house and barn you have a lane to run cows into the pens when work needs to be done and a spacious barn for all your ranch toys and implements. Dont forget about the small tool shed and an old bunk house that could be a charming cabin with some upgrades and maintenance.
Access to the house is all via country paved road, and concrete drive behind the front gate. You can also access most of the separated pastures from locked gates along Jackson Road making it easy when those heavy rains fall. Not to mention the miles of improved ranch roads on the ranch. Refugio is located just minutes south of the ranch off 183/77 making getting to HEB or the feed store super easy.
This ranch is offered with no minerals, no current production or leases in place.
