TERRAIN: The property is hilly with elevations ranging from a high of just over 1840 feet above msl on the south west boundary to a low of about 1,680 feet above msl in the northeast corner along Crabapple Road. On top of the main hill feature on the property which runs southeast to northwest, the ground is fairly level and there is an existing road which provides for easy access to several possible homesites on top with great long distance views to the North and East. The easy way to access these tracts (up on top of the hill) would be by this existing road which would be designated as an easement described by metes and bounds. The main entrance for this easement would be in the southeast corner of the larger parent property. All of the homesites can have patios facing east to provide shade in the evening. With all of the Crabapple Road frontage, it is possible that several tracts will have two entrances if one chooses to build in the valley closer to Crabapple Road. (See maps)
VEGETATION: The property is mainly wooded. The main trees and shrubs are cedar (juniper redberry and blueberry) live oak, elm, post oak, pin oak, Spanish oak, evergreen sumac, flameleaf sumac, mountain laurel (mescal bean), hackberry, agarito, wild plum, wild cherry, mesquite and native persimmon. Near Crabapple Road along the dry creek are a number of dwarf palm which only grow near underground wet areas. There are also a number of native pecan trees along the valley near Crabapple Road, in the valley to the west and some on top. The area on top of the hills where the main road runs and in the valley have been somewhat cleared of cedar; but, leaving the larger oak trees. Native grasses include little bluestem, KR bluestem, sideoats grama, buffalograss and curly mesquite grass.
WATER: There is one water well with power near the north boundary. The Trinity water strata is thought to be in the 670- 810 foot range from the surface depending on if the location is on the hilltop or in the valley land and the Glen Rose, or other strata above that. Water production from nearby wells range from 20 gpm to 60 gpm. Consulting with a local water well driller should answer any water well questions. Water well drillers for the area include: H.W. Schwope & Sons, Inc of Boerne and T.R. Drilling & Service, LLC of Boerne.
SOIL: The soils are clay loam with rocky limestone outcroppings with some caliche on the hill sides.
IMPROVEMENTS: The property is currently fenced on the east boundary along Crabapple Road. After closing the owner will fence the remaining boundary lines. There is an old school bus in poor condition near the north boundary once used as a hunting cabin.
ROADS: The primary entrance to this tract is right off of Crabapple Road and as mentioned above, a secondary road entrance in the southeast corner of the parent property will be used as an access road to the top of the hill. Because of the easy access and the terrain, it is planned to be a 60 foot ingress egress easement described by metes and bounds, (30 on either side of the centerline of the road) from the entrance all the way to the area to the north.
UTILITIES: Pedernales Electric Co-op. has power to the water well (See map showing the approximate location of the power line.) A buried Guadalupe Valley Telephone Co. land line is located along Crabapple Road. Cell service is good on the hilltops and probably not so good in the valleys.
WILDLIFE: Wildlife in the area would include whitetail deer, axis deer, feral hog, grey fox, raccoon, opossum, squirrel, coyote, rabbit, skunk, dove and a few bobwhite quail.
TAXES: For 2021 the property is taxed Ag Use taxation. To continue Ag Use or Wildlife taxation, the new property buyers will need to apply with Kendall County.
MNERALS: Seller believes he owns all of the mineral estate and will convey one-half of what he owns. There is no mineral or oil and gas lease in effect.
