The Berclair Ranch is easily accessed by way of Lucas Road and Power Road, both paved roads. It is located near the small town of Berclair, approximately 12 miles from the historic town of Goliad, Texas, and is about 25 minutes from Beeville. It is also easily accessible from Victoria (41 miles), Corpus Christi (70 miles), San Antonio (91 miles), Austin (138 miles), and Houston (170 miles).

TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT

The ranch features a beautifully diverse landscape, including rolling native rangelands complete with centuries-old live oak trees and wildflowers during the spring. The current owners have typically maintained several improved pastures in coastal over the years. There is enough roll and topographical change to allow for expansive view sheds and privacy alike. Blanco Creek is the western border of the ranch, while Mucorrera Creek traverses the ranch near the eastern border, offering stunning cliffs and deep pools during normal times. Blanco Creek also offers recreational activities like fishing and canoeing at times.

WILDLIFE

The low-fenced ranch is surrounded by other large properties, creating a haven for wildlife. The ranch enjoys populations of white-tailed deer, Rio Grande turkey, dove, quail, javelina, waterfowl, songbirds, various predators and feral hogs.

AGRICULTURE

Approximately 18% of the ranch has been maintained in coastal pastures, supporting the active cattle operation. The ranch includes two sets of working pens and most of the fencing is in good condition. The operational area is well-equipped to manage and support agricultural activities, making it an all-around ranch suitable for various purposes.

IMPROVEMENTS

Currently, there are limited improvements on the ranch including the working pens (one being main operational area), two hunting camps and a homesite used by a ranch employee. One of the camps utilizes the old ranch homestead; however, the homestead does have some deferred maintenance needs.

WATER

Berclair Ranch has three water wells and multiple stock tanks spread throughout the property. Blanco Creek and Mucorrera Creek are not only beautiful but also provide vital water sources for wildlife and livestock during normal rainfall periods. Both of these creeks will flow following adequate rainfall.

ELECTRICITY

Electricity is available in multiple areas of the ranch.

MINERALS

Offering is surface only.

There are three wells (2 gas and 1 low volume oil) on a limited 450 acre leased portion of the ranch.

AREA HISTORY

Goliad County was the site of two battles in the Texas Revolution. The Battle of Goliad was a minor skirmish early in the war. However, the subsequent battle of Coleto was an important battle that culminated on March 27, 1836. Col. James Fannin and his Texan soldiers were executed by the Mexican army, under orders from Gen. Antonio Lpez de Santa Anna, in what became known as the Goliad Massacre. This event led to the Texas Revolutionary battle cry Remember the Alamo! Remember Goliad! Although many remember the Alamo today, fewer remember Goliad. The site of the massacre is located near Presidio la Bahia, just south of the town of Goliad.

CONSERVATION EASEMENT

In 2005, with a desire to conserve the heritage of the ranch, the owners donated a landowner friendly conservation easement to The Nature Conservancy of Texas and have continued to operate the ranch as they always have. The owners have made the decision to sell the Berclair Ranch portion of the parent ranch to their future neighbor as they will continue to own and operate on the ranch to the north that is also governed by the same conservation easement. The Berclair Ranch does include a 10 acre building envelope for the construction of a new headquarters should the next steward desire to do so. Please contact Broker for additional information.

OTHER

The west and east pastures of the Berclair Ranch are separated by paved Power Road that provides not only great access to different pasture gates, it also provides a cattle drive lane frequently used by the ranch. Power Road terminates at the end of the ranch and has limited use overall.

The historic Moya family cemetery (aka Mucorrera Cemetery) is located in the east pasture and is used infrequently by Moya family descendants.
