Land:
The terrain of the ranch is gradually rolling with a slight elevation drop from the south western section (front) of the property to north easterly section (back) of the property. The soil is mostly fine sand and sandy loam. The ranch is located in Lavaca County with a portion in Dewitt County.
The ranch has three different ponds. The home enjoys an unobstructed view of the largest pond located just beyond the front yard. The pond is approximately 2.25 acres and stocked with bass and catfish. The second pond is located near the barnyard. This pond is just over 2 acres and is also an excellent water source for cattle and wildlife. This pond has been stocked and is great for fishing. The third pond is a small, secluded pond nestled among a grove of trees. Although all of the ponds are used by a variety of wildlife, this pond is known for attracting beautiful wood ducks.
The ranch is about 2/3rds wooded with a mixture of trails and open areas scattered among hardwoods which include live oaks, post oaks and pecan trees. The bulk of the hardwoods on the property are made up of live oak and post oak trees. The yard around the home is predominately made up of mature live oak growth.
