This 729 +/- acres is one of those ranches that comes along once in a lifetime. It has everything in a ranch anyone could want..elevation, draws, heavy cover, wildlife, improved pastures for livestock and hay operation, large liveoaks and pecans and perhaps its best feature.water and plenty of it. For starters the ranch has a mile and half of beautiful Colorado River frontage with deep pools of water and access to launch you boat easily for an afternoon of fishing and relaxing on the river. Along the river you have a mix of the best terrain a river bottom can offer.some places you drive along the riverbank at the foot of tall rocky bluffs and then you have the beautiful bottom land with lush grasses and over 300 large, mature pecan trees. The ranch has 14 ponds scattered over the land and two lakes that surround the base of the hill the home sits on. An artesian water well provides more than enough water to keep the lakes and several of the ponds full year round. The water is piped to various ponds and can be channeled down a rocky draw and fill the first lake that then spills into the second lake. The water from the artesian well stays a constant 98 degrees. Two other water wells are on the ranch so with these three wells water is plentiful.
Terrain on the ranch is varied from rolling grasslands (350 acres are in improved grasses such as Tifton, coastal, and Klien) to deep draws and high hills offering some fantastic views. Cover is great on the ranch with plenty of post oaks, elms, live oaks, mesquites, pecans, hackberry, native white brush, persimmon brush, algerita brush, and other varieties of native brush. Wildlife is abundant here with the cover, surface water, and river providing the ideal habitat for them to thrive.
The ranch has a hunters cabin, rv shed, implement shed, large metal shop, and excellent fencing. Near the house is the 80 x 40 metal shop with 4 overhead doors, concrete flooring, and a rainwater collection system that captures the rainwater and stores it in a 10,000 gallon holding tank.
Sitting high on top of one hill overlooking the two lakes and river bottom is the home. Surrounded by live oaks the home has front and back porches to sit and enjoy the beauty of the outdoors..from the back porch you have the view of the lakes, one hillside where the wildlife venture down to the lakes, and the river bottom. It is the perfect place to relax and unwind and just take in all the beauty that surrounds you here.
